    Hi Cascadia, in terms of building projects, I am most interested in having Diane Keys' home - aka the Elgin Mansion - declared a national landmark. My dream would be for it to become a tourist attraction like Graceland. It could also be the world's leading Trashpo museum. That's enough for me, in terms of a challenge.

  • Cascadia Artpost

    I'm sure he was thinking more along the lines of a DKult T-shirt mounted on a recycled cardboard silhouette...

    Thanks very much for the Amazing Grace postcard :-) Amazing Grace is my art production name, which was bestowed upon me by my Fortran instructor in college, who invariably crossed out my name on all handed in class papers and wrote AMAZING instead, in bold red letters. 

  • Susan McAllister

    Thanks, Diane!

    I wwent to the dkult site here and the lil'white bitty thingy like this one i am writing on is not there! I wanted to say that piece of trashpo DVD has kindlu uploaded is ancient, i cnt remember when i did it.

    and i wante dto say thx Diane, for th trashpo receive dthis morning at @Walmarth Uk. It is being processed by our swcurity peoople ad will b etrolleyed soon to ur customers.

    i seem to want too many sayings so i shaut up.

  • Mail Art Martha

    I may fall foul of the Austerity Police of mrs M for using too many words, scarce here in th uk together with other vital things.

  • Mail Art Martha

    Oh that meant that Theresa May our august prime Minister, for the moment, ( there is a rumour her own party is plotting to get rid of her) and in general all the conservative governments have a policy of austerity. They starve services ( police, fire fighters, schools, hospitals) of funds but give their friends in top business ( banks for instance) tax cuts and perks. So I suppose my excessive use of words is against the austerity policy.  Don't you follow the circus we have here? we follow your top man faithfully. I heard he has said he does not want to visit us ( Ahhhh... And I was looking forward so much to see him) until he is assured there will not be adverse demonstrations. 

  • Mail Art Martha

    Thanks by the way for your snail mail. I am preparing a suitable response. Also I have been taking photos for your blog.

  • Mail Art Martha

    Yes absolutely, I read the political news to have a laugh, I used to cry but I a hysterical laugh is all I manage now. Thanks to DKult I am still sane, a little at least.

  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

  • Mail Art Martha

    Yes Happy birthday Diana! I didn't know or I would have done a Trashy card for you. I did pick up the flowering branch in the street at Springtime so I suppose this counts as Trashpo?
