Day 57



This could be a Pet Shop Boys album sleeve.

Day 55



I realise that this doesn't really make any sense with reference to the word in question but as long as I acknowledge that it's okay, right?

Day 54



It is mandatory to sing The Proclaimers' Letter from America while viewing this image. "Take a looooooooooook down the rail track..."

Day 53


My flat is now genuinely littered with oddments from this project, although many of them have already beaten 'increase' and 'to' into the bin - much to the dismay of museums everywhere.

Interesting fact: my laser printer is about 14 years old now and is only on its second toner cartridge.

Day 52



I wrote a poem about a teddy boy when I was fifteen. Wanna see it?


TEDDY BOY UNDER THE STARS


A teddy boy roaming the civic common
Cap in hand, a pound to the dozen
Waiting for news of his ailing pet rabbit
Resentful of the yob who broke in to stab it
Smoking and drinking to relieve his tension
Running around naked (which for now we won't mention)

Day 51



This device is known as a Galton box. I only learned this today but thought it was worth sharing.

Day 50



Day 50. Can I get a woo? Can I get a hoo?

Day 49



Just be thankful I didn't go with the version that involved a permanent marker and my arse crack.

Day 48



I've kept this frame on display in my lounge. They grow up so quickly you know.

Day 45



I don't want anyone to think that I'm not an incurable romantic.

Day 44



Does anyone have any hairspray?

Saturday 12 February 2011

Day 43



It's hard to write neatly in margarine. Not recommended for essays or even long notes.

Day 42



The portrait depicts, appropriately enough, Amy Adams.

Day 40



I've been working on this post for so long that I can't really tell whether it's any good or not. I just seem to have lost all perspective.

Day 38


Despite looking like a bit of a mess, this is likely to be the most detailed image of the whole story. I ended up saving it at 0% quality and it's still the biggest file so far. It's almost uncompressible. Fascinating, you say? I know, I know.

Day 36


I should probably warn you that this sentence drags on until March 13th.

Friday 4 February 2011

Day 35


The word is 'sightings'. I don't usually film old men from my window - this blog is corrupting me.

Day 34


It took 110 attempts to trip the shutter at exactly the moment that the flipped coin hit the focal plane. I thought I'd mention that because it probably looks Photoshopped and it's worth flagging those rare occasions when I don't cheat.

Day 33



'Occasional' is perhaps overstating it. Truth is, I very rarely get the opportunity to use these mugs.

Tuesday 1 February 2011

Day 32



I seem to remember a lot of advertising looking like this circa 1997.
