  • Lock Down Loo Roll Art "Love Culture"

    I found the panic buying of loo roll during lock down to be an absolute farce. As a reflection on this, as well as the huge amount of rubbish created by modern living, I decided to use the discarded cardboard cores of loo rolls, combined with boxes and old newspapers to create something lovely. It's also lightened the load on the recycling bin considerably.

    This one comes with a wordsearch of "Saxon Era Mercian Greats" created by Bigman on the back. Because, why not?

Sometimes people write in the third person to try and sound more intellectual. It doesn't work.

lyrics

Fragile (...like a bomb)
Emergency
This is, this is an emergency
I need to see a sense of urgency
Cause this is, this is an emergency

She’s not fragile like a flower, she’s fragile like a bomb
She’s not fragile like a flower, she’s fragile like a bomb

It’s risky
There’s uncertainty
But the power in a spring has a longing to be free
Like the girl whose on the edge with her face towards the sea
Swaying dangerously

Kinetic energy
Potentially

She’s not fragile like a flower, she’s fragile like a bomb
Not fragile like a flower, she’s fragile like a bomb
And she’s about to go off, she’s about to go off

Calamity
May be all that you can see
But a storm can show resilience in the bending of a tree
When the storms die down at last, waters roll off to the sea
Standing steadfastly

Calamity breeds
Tenacity

She’s not fragile like a flower, she’s fragile like a bomb
And she’s about to go off
She’s not fragile like a flower, she’s fragile like a bomb bomb bomb

Sound the retreat sound the retreat
I need time to regroup
Get back up on my feet

Sound the retreat sound the retreat
I need time to regroup

Regroup

Emergency
Emergency
