This month in Ricky Trickartt’s wonderful world of colour, I’ve been pondering the backstory to Cecil’s Ride<\/a> though a series of cat drawings. These are probably some of my favourite doodles over the past few weeks! Not all of the cats are to do with him though – the sack of cats<\/a> came from Don Quixote, which I finished reading this month.<\/p>\n

A couple of weeks ago two stories hit the internet at the same time- the resurrection of Skymall and release of footage from the new James Bond movie. The combination left me remembering Adele’s theme song to the last movie, and I imagined what James Bond would look like<\/a> (and be thinking) if he ever got the opportunity to peruse a copy of Skymall on a long-distance flight. <\/p>\n

I also found myself musing on the possibilities of throwing a hot dog so it would fly<\/a> the length of a swimming pool. Maybe a 25-metre pool as that’s what was have here in the valley. I think my best bet would be some kind of balsa-and-tissuepaper wing construction. It’d make a great competition, but I don’t know if I’ll ever put this daydream into action, particularly if the hot dog is topped with mustard. That would just make a mess.<\/p>\n

Drawing is fun!<\/p>\n

After the fold are all the old direct links, for posterity’s sake. <\/p>\n
