welcome
Letterpress printer, bookbinder, book-arts teacher, designer, daydreamer. Also mother, wife, cat-owner and dreadfully slack friend and relative. I live in Canberra, Australia. You'll read about any and all of these things, in no particular order. Enjoy! (Serving suggestion only.)
a note for printers
At work I print on a Graphix cylinder proofing press and a small Korrex cylinder proofing press. At my studio I have a Vandercook SP-20 under renovation and a couple of tabletop Adanas. If you've always wanted to find a manual for the SP-20, mine is downloadable here.
booky goodness
selected cast
Best Beloved (BB): husband, does. not. read. blog., loves to cook, wants to be Ricky Gervais in the next life.
Bumblebee: 12, head-spinning into puberty, transfixed by mirrors or any shiny surface, wants to be David Tennant in his next life, or possibly George Lucas.
Mr Padge: fat cat, likes to bury his head in armpits, inner elbows, backs of knees. Purrs loudly. Now available with special curly tail!
Mr Pooter: thin cat. Evil genius. Purrs softly but digs in a sharp claw at the same time. In his next life he wants to be both President and Prime Minister of Russia.
Colonel & Lady Duck: tree-change retirees living in the glorious deep south of NSW with some chooks, a couple of cows and a very weird dog.

I'm so glad someone else has done this one -- I thought it was really intriguing!
I see we have chocolate biscuits, crashing waves and a distaste for Botox in common (books go without saying) -- and some of your other choices were close seconds of mine (theatre seats, curled pearly shell).
Yairs... actually, I thought there was a glaring absence of cats. Maybe they should have had a 'pet' section.
No -- bugger all pets, maybe a selection of 'I like my cats...' and they could be in the garden, (prowling), or sitting on a rug in front of a fire (sleeping), or up a tree (helpless), or on sitting a keyboard like any modern cat (shedding).
Its pretty cool. Have to go back and try the all grey squares and see what it says.
