Day 166: Raven-Symoné
Sometimes I’ll do something and think – that is so raven. And then other times I’ll do something and think – that way not very raven. Today is not one of those days. Today is Raven-Symoné’s birthday, so I have decided to dress up as a raven (bird)….did you see what I did there? Photo credit: Billy…
Day 165: Emmett Kelly
Today is Emmett Kelly’s birthday. You may not recognise Emmett’s Kelly for his name, but you do know him.

Day 160: Meat
Today I am taking on the user suggestion theme of Meat from Paul. For obvious reasons I have used Lady Gaga’s meat dress as inspiration. Please note my version of printed out pieces of meat held together on me with sticky tape is a much more pleasant smelling version of the dress. Photo credit:…
