In my corner it is Christmas
No, really... I sat down the other day and realised that the Phd will be complete by Christmas and the business will be back in full production, so after a huge holiday, I need some Christmas cards.

Cardiff – Commissions – Valentine’s
The weekend just gone I found myself in Cardiff alone while my other half was training... So I decided to hit the museum - again. I went to see the Victorian Gallery but it was closed. I wondered for a moment what to do but then I realised the Natural History section was open so… Continue reading Cardiff – Commissions – Valentine’s
