           All those childhood fairy tales were just a trick to lull us
            into  a  false  sense  of  security  and  entice  us  towards
            adult-hood.  Clearly  if  Cinderella  was  real  she  wouldn't
            have  been  'rescued'  and  lived  happily  ever  after,  she
            would  have  been  named  Cinderella  having  finally
            dropped  dead  in  the  cinders  where  she  had  worked  a
            long, relentless life of drudgery as a 'Char-lady'.

           Oh!  TESCO's,  is  it  your  consistency  people  love?  Your
            customer service was up to the same standard as always
            today; ME TO SHOP ASSISTANT: "Excuse me could
            you  tell  me  the  price  of  this  please?"  SHOP
            ASSISTANT: "No cos there ain’t one on there is 'tha'!"
           By sending all the shopping on the back seat of my car
            hurtling  into  the  back  of  my  head  as  I  hit  the  brake!
            Mostly heavy tins and jars but don't worry, I was also hit
            by  a  deep  dish  cheesecake  so  I  didn't  just  sustain head
            injuries, I also ended up looking fu**ing stupid as well
           I  tried  Morrison’s  once  before  Xmas.  One  was  not
            amused! I didn't like having to unlock the trolley with a
            pound coin, I didn't like the fact I couldn't get a takeaway
            Latte  to  walk  round  with  and  I  was  most  disappointed
            that they had no pharmacy counter.

           This is my attempt at a 'happier' piece of art work. Still
            using  the  mixed  media  collage  technique,  this  one  is
            called 'Home is where the Heart is' and contains vintage
            & war time found objects.
