It's Hallowe'en Time Again!
Ah, it's that time of year again, when bloggers across the globe go Hallowe'en crazy!
I'm a little disappointed, as this year may be the first year I won't be going to a Hallowe'en costume party. For the past 8 years or so, I've been going to an annual party, held at a notorious house just south of Adelaide in South Australia.
Here's my past 6 years' efforts, along with the originals for comparison:
But I've just moved to London, and have only really just found my feet here, as such, I don't have anything planned. I've got ideas in mind, but as we're only 7 days away from the Hallowe'en weekend, I'm not really sure if I'll be able to pull it off. If worse comes to worse, maybe I'll just spend the weekend wearing my costume around the flat.
Regardless, as per tradition, here is my annual Hallowe'en compilation!
This year, I've taken inspiration from the 1996 stinker 'Werewolf'... or if you're an MST3K fan like myself (see above), you may know it better as 'Wharwilf'.

The Big Band - I Understand And I Wish To Continue - Grace Emily, 9 July 2011
Since September 1999, I've been a proud member of a band called The Big Band, with my friends Nigel, Spencer and Steev. This Saturday, we launch our newest album 'I Understand And I Wish To Continue' and we're playing a show to celebrate. This also marks our final live show in this line-up ever.
Here is a little taster of the album:
The Big Band - Team 3

Futurama Playing Cards; OR 'Grunka Lunka Dunkity Dasis'
As is quite obvious on this blog, I do love playing cards. So to celebrate the return of Futurama to television (now halfway through Season 6!), here is a deck I purchased some time ago.
Futurama is easily my favourite TV show and I was very happy to see that some thought had been put into the production of these cards and weren't just cheap headshots of the primary characters. They even arrived in a mock Slurm can, which even contains its own nutritional information table!
