My Year in Photos – January 30th – “Here’s one I made earlier”

Posted on January 30, 2010November 26, 2010 by Henry Elliss


My Year in Photos – January 30th, originally uploaded by henweb.

On a day whose highlights will include a visit to Tesco, two visits by plasterers, a trip out to look for a new oven and numerous loads of washing, I figured I probably wouldn’t get any good photos out of any of those activities. So whilst adding another toilet roll tube to the pile earlier, I snapped a picture of the growing pile, along with a selection of our bathroom reading material. Far from being offended at their bathroom placement, I would hope that any of the authors whose literature is featured here will take it as a complement – we like to have good literature on hand in the John!

The toilet roll tubes, in case you were wondering, are being collected to go in our “Crap bag” in the garage – a big liner full of boxes, tubes, cartons, scraps and other stuff that we might need for kid-based DIY projects. Maybe I’ve been watching “Mr Maker” too much, but I reckon you can never have enough junk like that to hand when you’re looking to make the next Tracy Island….!
