I am a little fat. I like food; what can I say? I have dull hair: mousey. I don’t wear much make-up and have no need of a dressing table. If I look like a bag lady, I chose my own clothes. If I look nice, the Hub picked them for me. Despite all this, I am a little vain. This photograph is from 2003. I had to go back that far to find one of me that I liked. But I don’t really care: my husband still thinks I’m beautiful and if he doesn’t, he loves me enough to lie about it. I’m lucky. I have two boys. They never lie to me. Still, you can't have everything.
I would love to hear from you!

Today is National Poetry Day. I was going to bring you some fun and interesting facts about poetry, but you know what? There aren’t any. Not on the internet, anyway. Poetry is dull. By the way, remember to check out my poetry blog, I’m Not A Verse. * * * * * I did find […]
Viewfromtheside offered fascinating as the weekend theme. I thought you might like some fascinating facts. Can you guess which, if any, are true? You can’t fold paper more than seven times. You can, actually, if you are young and determined and rope in your family and a shopping mall. From Wikipedia: In January 2002, while a […]
With apologies to Paul, who might not find this blog to be quite what he was expecting. Take a look at this You Tube video. This – boy? young man? lad? What do I call him? He’s of a similar age to Tory Boy but obviously we are not on similar terms. I’ll call him ‘person’ […]
I have long been in search of the perfect handbag. It must be black; have a short and long handle, so that I can carry it down, under my arm, over my shoulder or over my chest; it must not be so big that I carry a load of junk around with me that I […]

I especially like the teenager pic.

Must be a guy thing
Oh! Oh! I love the Easter Bonnet! Creative man, The Hub.
He is, but he gets carried away sometimes. He had to add the pole so Spud could support it.
I think we should give Spud three cheers! I can’t imagine either of my children dressing up with such apparent good humour. Even if the costumes were splendid.
Are you kidding? He loves it. So does Tory Boy but he didn’t have as many opportunities to dress up because he had a different head teacher who didn’t do that sort of thing.
Why didn’t Mister Bud go into costume design in film, he’s got Oscar talent!!!
He’ll love that
i love the little king, but the teenager would give me sleepless nights
Scary, wasn’t it?
Great fun. The lost boy looks a bit like the Robin Hood that I made for Fraser. Hub is a genius, and must be a great Dad.
He is, when he’s not yelling at them
This man is totally unbelievable!
So tell me, Tilly: What’s NOT to like??
Wonderful designs! Thanks, Tilly.
I’m glad you enjoyed them
Absolutely brilliant. I love the hat. xx
Made from cardboard and some old material.
Whoops! Wrong post! I’m thinking of Grabber Dan.
That one’s made from a real plant pot and fake flowers.
