Son of a Gun !

well, Orange Wednesdays are coming to an end, so no more free Wednesday night flicks for me with my ma any more 

(but I've heard that another great movie deal will be coming)

so the countdown is on and I saw my 3rd last movie the other day - I had long awaited it's arrival...

why, ofcourse I did - check out the crush above!!!

Aussie made movie - Son of A Gun - 

with Ewan McGregor, Ex-Machina and a honey called Brenton Thwaites!

We both thoroughly enjoyed it!

It was fast paced, gritty, fun and ofcourse Australian, and since I'm a true-blue Aussie it was nice to see a bit of home again, even if it was just the gold and dirt from Kalgoorlie...

however, truth be told - the real reason I was riveted to the big screen was because of the spell binding allure of Aussie dish Brenton Thwaites!

omg!! what a handsome boy that one is!? and I must say, the director cast perfectly because he took up alot of screen time. 

Yup, Alot!

Thank Goodness! :)

this is one nice bad boy for sure!

-does a life of crime pay then?

I shall be getting this flick on dvd. Ofcourse. 

*drool*

and it was a touching love story too! 

a tough boy with heart, so that's twice as nice :)

it's always great to see a decent heist movie

the last brilliant one I watched was Ben Affleck's The Town. 

omg! not seen it yet?! 

well, if you love your movies fast paced and awesome - you gotta see that one for sure! infact it's a double heist flick!

and Ben is all muscled up in it 

*sigh* 

I reckon this lad Brenton will be going big places for sure

son of a gun! such drop dead gorgeous looks and perfect acting

~star material this one~

and his Aussie accent is heart melting, aaah

okay, here's another (loaded) gun....

likin' that song big time!  From a Gun

it's written and sung by my very talented gym mate Jack Rowberry

yup - he trains in the same gym as me and I've spotted for him - made him sweat real hard on the inclines ;) haha

(it's never holiday time when I spot for anyone!)

and as usual my xmas presents the other month were jsut the things I ordered from Santa 

- a huge stack of old Commando comics!  

been making my way thru them slowly

love the stories so much! so exciting!

and ofcourse more War stuffs - some not-new books of tanks and soldiers and all that military hardware that makes me drool and sigh and just totally bliss out

plus a book on the discovery of longitude!

last month I made my first baby Army hare with wings!

adorable or what?

yeah - adorable! :)

so one last time - another pic of Brenton 

this time showing off his big guns :)  lol  

*sigh* 
such a handsome boy!

doin it doggy style

have you ever noticed that dogs are always happy?

so adorably cute and fun eh?
doggys sure know how to have the best ever fun!


let's see some of that fun in slow-mo....
(with the groovin' toons of DMX and some barkin' companions)

about to go down....  doggy style

about to go down....   girlie style

.... downward dog

and er, downward girlie...

.... yeah, sheesh! that's right! that's me, 

who else eh??!

I surprised my mama big time last month when we were on our wee walk-around Ikea, taking in the bedroom scenes, 

(usually we go there most weeks for a sit-down cup of tea and share a bar of choklad ljus, and to snack on the vegetarian hotdawgs :) yum yum)

- anyway, this time before we went I'd shown my mum the clip of the doggy on the bed and we had had a good laugh, then we'd youtubed about 10 other funny-doggy-on-bed clips, ha ha ha! 

and since I'd planned this 'wee surprise' about a week before, I was just really excited to get round to the nicely made up beds in their bed display area

and then I called to my mum, suddenly jumped up on my favourite one (yeah I have a fav bedroom scene there! it's got slate grey walls, so gorgeous!), let out a little yelp then 'did like a dog'

~I buried my face in the quilt and shimmied about on all 4s on the bed~

we both laughed so so hard!!!

It was so much FUN!!!! 

...mum grabbed her new phone with the easy-to-use camera and took snaps...!

I ended up picking up all the contents of my bag that had tipped out onto the quilt!

doggy style can be precarious....

so, talking about doggys - here are some new baby Army hares, soon to be making their way to my etsy shop.

And each one will be donating £4 to Nowzad, to help the stray dogs of Afghanistan and the coalition soldiers

I LOVE doggys!!!

and hares!

LOVE hares!

this is a progress pic of a working sketch I did a while ago that is now a postcard in my etsy shop

I'd painted over an old watercolour of some clouds that I'd done ages ago 

a hare amongst the clouds

(in time scales - ages ago is even older than a while ago)

and here up amongst the clouds is my most favourite of fighters - the Supermarine Spitfire!

I LOVE spitfires!

I got an exciting boxed set with a dvd and a book, plus a huge hardback of my favourite comic stories - Commando! 

I LOVE Commando stories!! 

WWII soldiers and pilots and submariners and all that Army war stuff *sigh*

yeah! 

that was fun! presents!

and it did't stop there either -

I got some bracelets (yeah, yeah, girly stuff I know, but I do like a bit of metal)

and ofcourse - reindeer!!! to wear on my sleeve and close to my heart

LOVE my reindeer!

and I got some rabbits too

(at the top of my red mountain here, nuff said)

a couple of white rabbits amongst the clouds

in love

: )

I've been dreaming about rabbits alot (yes, dreaming of Wesley most nights)

white rabbits

with pinky eyes

soft adorable loveable beautiful

and everywhere I go I see small white fluffy doggys

those tiny wee Scottish ones

and they are always excited to see me

(I suppose they are the closest thing to a small white rabbit I will encounter when I'm out and about)

- all reminding me of Wesley!

my sweetheart, he's been in my thoughts every day

okey dokey, enough reminiscing!

here is Papa hare DogStar!

he's named after the brightest star in the sky, Sirius

here he is beside my wish box, 

he knows I've been dreaming of my Wesley, up amongst the stars...

my wish box has lots of little stars on the top of it, so I put my written wishes inside and know that the stars are taking care of them

nice eh?

DogStar is saying cheerio to his friend Papa Hare Pookster

they were both admiring the bit of reindeer material on the arm of the chair (yeah, I cut the bottom third off my sweathshirt and made it 'my-style' just for me), until they heard the groovy toons from DMX and all that barking

then Pookster decided he'd better be leaving

and DogStar thought it was high time he got to my etsy shop...


okay then, had enough fun for now? or not?

hmmm?

...doggys always seem to be having fun
on the bed, off the bed, at the beach, by the park, in their sleep....

maybe it should be a more prevalent pursuit? 

doggy style 24/7

...sounds good to me : )


~have fun!
