So I was watching a documentary about Scotland with a friend and the TV people kept talking about the glens and magnificent glens and spectacular glens and faraway glens and she starts laughing because she’s imagining all these Glenns running around and clearly her imagination does not have spellcheck.

This Glenn may not be spectacular, but he is certainly very fine. Don’t you agree?

This one is a bit more avant-garde, I think the rhino is looking back at the traffic light?

So my nieces know that I have made a colouring book (and have, indeed, coloured in their very own);  and we often colour each others’ drawings; so what better Christmas present than my very own Niece-Made Colouring Books? They worked really hard too to make them properly colourable, outlining all the fiddly bits for me!

They also know I like creatures with MANY eyes, so here is possibly the happiest spider I have ever seen.
