Fishwick Papers: The "Too Many Nunchuck Sausages" Edition

Afternoon!This one was compiled on Thursday, but then writing the introduction got away from me somehow. I had a spectacular weekend of simultaneously getting through some minor things that I've been meaning to do for a while AND starting some exciting new things. I feel proper excited and slightly on top of things.At work today I received the first couple objects I'm loaning for the exhibition. It's happening. It's actually happening. Flipping heck. I'll have to work out a way of giving you all a tour when it's finished.Thanks for reading, and don't forget to tell your friends to subscribe so that they can read and tell their friends to subscribe as well. It's not a cult. At all.Have a neat-o week-o,I LOVE YOU BYEEEEjim xoxo
