Thanks Rashmi, love to you as well xx
Iβm sorry that she had a bad experience and that she had to fight it twice! The world isnβt fair x
Thanks! I was very well looked after x
Thank you!
Iβve been away for a long time but if anyoneβs still out thereβ¦
I beat cancer.
Iβm actually not sure. Itβs in pretty good condition compared to some of the others so I donβt think itβs very old. Maybe 20-25yrs based on some of the others from the same batch.
Itβs a very sinister story about two consciousnesses battling for control of one body - the protagonist and the twin he absorbed in the womb!
Last one for tonight- a bawdy song about farting
(Itβs in a Kurt Vonnegut book, so therefore this is high culture, no judgement)
Answering machine message for John. The helicopterβs all in hand, I hope.
Dave Allen evidently had a habit of ringing people too early in the bloody morning
βIβve had an idea for a short storyβ
(Itβs quite a good idea, I hope he wrote it!)

Iβm fixing old voice recorders for a project. They often come with old tapes left in, so when they shudder to life I get a tiny glimpse of a strangerβs life.
Iβve accidentally become an archivist of disembodied voices and fragments of stories.
In case youβre as curious as me:

Iβm HUGELY interested in the psychology of spookiness. Iβm currently in the (very early) planning stages of a creative project about it. So if youβd ever like to share your stories and/or theories Iβd love to talk about it with you
Did you (or your neighbour) ever spot her again?
Tell me about the weird thing that happened to you to that youβve never been able to rationally explain. Hauntings. Premonitions. Mysteries.
Even the most level headed and skeptical people I know have a story that starts with βI donβt believe in that sort of thing, butβ¦β
Pleeeease tell me yours!
The folding into itself is such an interesting detail. Did you get the impression it was some kind of intentional appearance or do you think you were seeing some kind of left over energy?
Oh wow! Thatβs both spooky and sweet. Itβs quite funny to think of her haunting your neighbourβs house then realizing the gifts were at yours, and coming for a nosy!

When my daughter was diagnosed we sent copies to extended family and teachers because it does a great job of explaining new ideas. Very accessible without feeling childish (a lot of books aimed at young people with autism felt like theyβre aimed at six year olds). Glad you liked it too!
You should definitely read it then! The audio book version is on Spotify if you subscribe to that.
It definitely makes you see your life through a different lens! I empathize with your daughter, diagnosis is daunting. It sounds like sheβs got the right person on her team though x
We really like βA different kind of normalβ by Abigail Balfe.
Itβs written for adults but βwhy canβt I just enjoy thingsβ by Pierre Novellie made some things click in my head - he was late diagnosed and talks about how he learned to mask and cope as a kid without knowing thatβs what he was doing.
Youβve gotta make bad comics before you can make anything good. But you also need to be delusional about how good they really are to keep going. Keep the fire alive.
So beautiful. Merry Christmas Helle xx
Depressing alleyway with rusty railings and barred windows. Stained concrete wall with graffiti of a chubby and cheeky looking crocodile and the word βhopeβ
This Christmas Eve, may even your dingiest alleys be blessed with a visit from the crocodile of hope.
A friendly hello from the friendly friends.
