Ah! I knew I had drawn a otter at some point.

Now, you might want to mute me for half an hour, intense otter reblog is about to happen. This is, after all, otter day.

The "Berlin Candy Bomber" Gail Halvorsen - 1948 - who dropped candy from his cargo plane to Berlin children during the Berlin Airlift as a gesture of goodwill and compassion.

Who else here immediately thought of Douglas Richardson?

Arthur trying to tell Carolyn what fruit he bit into and got an allergic reaction from in Yverdon-Les-Bains and doing an impression of an actual dragon never fails to crack me up every time.

DOUGLAS (over cabin address): Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. We’re now about halfway through our flight from Hong Kong to Limerick, and I just thought I’d let you know that I … am … bored. Bored, bored, bored, bored … bored. We are, unbelievably, still flying over Russia, which continues to be stupidly big. Really enormous. Far bigger than necessary. We’ve been in the air now for about a week, and it doesn’t look like we’ll be landing until the last syllable of recorded time. So, if anyone on board knows any card tricks, ghost stories, or would like to have some sex, please do make your way to the flight deck. Thank you.

(Slight pause.) (Bing-bong.)

MARTIN (over cabin address): Er, ladies and gentlemen, I do – I do profoundly apologise for my first officer and his badly misjudged attempt at humour. I do hope you weren’t distressed by his outburst, and-and let me just say in his defence that up here in the flight deck it is … unbelievably boring!

DOUGLAS: So boring.

MARTIN: So very very very very boring!

DOUGLAS and MARTIN: Bo-ored!

For Otter Day 2024. Only a few weeks late.

Now it's been delivered to its intended recipient, I can show off my latest cross stitch project: The Lemon is in Play. It's inspired by John Finnemore's brilliant radio sitcom, Cabin Pressure. I designed the pattern with Stitch Fiddle, using a stock photo of a lemon, some typeface references, and a list of all the shades of yellow that were already in my stash. I'm super happy with how it turned out, and my bestie was delighted with it too!
