too much info/not enough info

Some kind, well-meaning haridan put an rspca magazine thru my door last night. Behind the fotos of fluffy pets are the reports. B4 i could bin it i scanned enough details to wreck any bon vivant i had 4 the foreseeable future.
NB its obvious without knowing the gory details that things like pet shops are going to be hit by the recession with sickening results. Its as u'd think -- behind every shop is an out-building or shed somewhere with the, um, warehouse stock.
As usual I am incensed by the callous indifference of people who live alongside animal distress and don't report it.
However, there also needs to be a huge increase in public awareness. I'd bet that 9 out of 10 people don't know the rspca phone number is 0300 1234 999.
Another too much -- discovered this 2 year old? foto whilst sorting out drive.

A greener shade of black

My attention to presentation (of artwork) is *occasionally* a little slap-dash. But yesterday i looked askance at a newly mounted framed piece and decided it would benefit from a slightly darker, greener surround.
So i walked all the way into Shoreditch to Paintworks to find a suitable shade of dark grey - and found it. Its called Spruce Black.
Because i have an unfailing eye for measurement I judged the lengths correctly at 30.5 x 40.5 cms --- this is an invaluable gift and is no doubt inherited from my late dad's family (over 6 generations of stonemasons and builders of one-span bridges in the Scottish Highlands).
Anyway I've shot m'self in the foot because I cannot go back and collect it now -- my front door has just got its top, gloss coat, plus my new printer is being delivered today after all.
That picture must be delivered to the gallery by tomorrow 5pm!!!!!!

Not so great -- the skinflints don't inklude* a USB cable (*that was totally accidental! - like a keypad freudian slip)

Eek i have to run to Paintworks now -- cz those scivey art people shut at 4.30!
