Simon's Blog

First an apology. What a complete arse I am. There I said it. I am a real bumpkin. Yesterday I wrote, if that is the correct way to describe my ramblings in this blog, about the app/magazine Zire when actually I meant Zite. If you have been following this blog for any length of time, and you deserve a medal if you amongst such a self selecting group, you will know that that I rawly check what I write. Why do I no do this you would be quite right in asking? Well the truth is I’m lazy mixed with word blindness which means that even when I do check my work I usually miss quite obvious blunders – there probably are some grammatical and typological errors in this post but I only ever notice them after they have been written by which time I have moved on and you will have read them anyway so I can safely ignore such mistakes. Laziness you see is I’m very good at even if it means I come across s a bit of a buffer.

Anyway enough grovelling onto the afore mention antipodean actress Nicole Kidman. Well I’m at it again and I’m making a big effort to make a likeness of the beauty and here in is my problem. I have great difficulty making any such likeness of photographs of beautiful women. When it comes to real beautiful people I seem t able to produce an acceptable likeness but photos less so. So the image of Ms Kidman is once again to be subject to such torture or perhaps it is me who will be the tortured soul in all this rather than a piece of paper with some ink printed on it. So I’m doing a bit more self flagellation oh the joys of trying to master the craft of drawing.
