This little reveal was planned for yesterday. But then the new Quart pictures dropped, and the RAPS was put on hold. So before we get more goodies from the set in Spain, I better return to Milton with this one. It’s often the actual mint tin that determines the design of the shrine. That Altoid…
I need some happy pills today. The good complaint is that I have lots of work coming in at the moment. The bad complaint is that it is coming all at once. Today I am copy editing for a start-up that is launching in a couple of weeks’ time, and as usual the work needs…
If you are on Twitter, you may have seen a trickle of RAPS pictures coming in over the last week or so. Not posted by me but by the new owners of the latest thank you RAPSes. So it is overdue that I post my customary RAPS reveals here, for my own archive. But just…
What took me so long??? There is another shrine to post-reveal. It has been long received by its new owner. And since it was also part of the #RA50Auctions, you may have already seen it. But for the record… or even just for looking at the backdrop I used… That gold tin almost looks classy……
My day was a bit mixed today. It started good with a letter that I had given up hope of receiving. During the whole pandemic panic prior to Christmas, some of my shipments went missing. I could only lodge an enquiry for the ones that had been sent registered. Seven months later I now received…
The last few weeks were packed. So much so that I never got ’round to posting my usual RAPS reveals. And once the fundraiser was in full swing, I didn’t want to add even more posts spam to the TL. You may have seen the shrines already (if you looked through the respective eBay listing…
The mail is taking ages these days. I’d already wondered whether this shrine had gone missing – which would’ve been even more terrible than any lost shipment. Because this was a little RAPS mood booster for a lovely fellow fan who is currently undergoing some health treatments. Another experiment with spraying a mint tin gold,…
I’ve been wondering whether I should get back into more frequent blogging to give my recently-waning RA love a bit of a boost. But what to blog about? I don’t want to turn this into a medical record of my increasing ailments… However, it was actually on the way home from my physio appointment that…
It’s time I finally post this latest RAPS that has been sitting on my desk for several weeks now. The events of the last month or so put a bit of a dampener on my blogging activities, but with spring comes a fresh new urge to get back into more blog activities. My creative energy…
It’s a long-standing tradition that I always make a RAPS for Paddy’s Day. When I say long-standing… since 2016. 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020. RA has no known connections to Ireland other than work colleagues (e.g. Orla Brady, Dervla Kirwan) and film locations (George Gently, Pligrimage) Although due to geographic proximity and historic links, almost everyone…
