A lovely return to an all time classic.  Remember when people had real books and marked the pages so they knew where they left off?  Well Amy sent off this little gem in an amazing envelope as well.  I really have to get that sewing machine out of the back room.

Look at the texture of this beauty, it's great and fun to touch.  And no, those are not Amy's blue…

Oh look, it's Rolf Harris taking Taidgh's mail art on walkabout...it's too hot for me to do it...

I have called the Santa Fe Dept of tourism and they deny there has ever been any such promotional contest, but it seems only obvious that they are lying. A private detective was able to discover that he was in fact runner up. They found his nude self-portrait a…
