I was going through my blog and journals (as you do this time of year;-), and I noticed I completely forgot to share the stuff I made for Land of Art in 2024. My year was mostly filled with work and travel (which was also mostly for work) but I did manage to squeeze in some creative times. So I figured for my end of year post, I'll just picspam y' ( Read more... )

Pff, those were some worlwind weeks since my previous post. In between work being crazy busy (as usual;) I had a long weekend off for a theatre trip to London, including a night at the Leicester Square Theatre for Richard Herring's podcast; he interviewed Tim Key, who presented his book of poems, and Davina McCall, a hero of mine ever since her MTV ( Read more... )

Right before travel was shut down to slow down the spread of the Corona virus, I went on a weekendtrip to London I had planned months before. I had a ticket to a play on Saturday and on Sunday I was going to meet up with friends at the British Museum, that I'd never been to. Unfortunately my friends had to cancel last minute, so I visited the ( Read more... )

Last weekend I did a quick trip to London, mainly because I don't know what's gonna happen after Brexit and I so love to go there. I worked on Friday morning, then went home and packed my bags for the night boat across the Channel ( Read more... )

Told you I would post more! I wanted to share my podcast reclist and I didn't want to postpone putting it up, because one of these has an expiration date and I hope to get more people to listen to it before it's taken offline ( Read more... )

So before the family get-together on Saturday May 20th (my mom's partner's bday) where my nephew coughed all over me which gave me a week with a sore throat and limited snot which has now developed into an ear-infection and barking cough :( - BEFORE THAT, I went to the Harry Potter Expo in Utrecht with my book-and movie buddy Jelle. Here's a ( Read more... )

So, eh, hi? I didn't mean to stop posting in the middle of the Snowflake challenge, but I all of a sudden got the urge to do one of my home cleaning projects and it just felt so good to finally get my life back on track, that I didn't want to use going online as an excuse to fall back on procrastinating. I feel I'm getting a grip on things again ( Read more... )

Yes, yes, there will be a post of my trip to Amsterdam soon, but after all the artwork, I first have to finish the trilogy of picspams from the weekend in London 7 weeks ago. Because when tanisafan and I came back from our afternoon in Oxford, we went for a long walk on the banks of the river Thames at sunset. I just couldn't resist making pictures of the ( Read more... )

Yay, another picspam finished! After our wonderful day in the Harry Potter Studios (and the less wonderful shoulder incident) on Friday May 10, tanisafan and I traveled to Oxford on Saturday afternoon (May 11;). With my arm in a sling and a recharged camera I was able to make up for the lack of photos the day before. Haha, just kidding (but not really) - ( Read more... )

A couple of weeks ago tanisafan and I went to London for some theatre, shopping and a trip to the WB Harry Potter Studios. Which turned out to be an even bigger adventure than we had anticipated... On Thursday May 9 I traveled to Antwerp where I met up with T. on the platform of the train to Brussels. There we got on the Eurostar. In London we left our ( Read more... )
