Random stuff

1. There's a lock smith in Trollhättan (my old home town) called "Dalek"

2. It's Rickard's birthday today. I gave him the three "orignal" foundation books and he seemed happy about that.

3. I realised that the men in this picture don't seem to have paned slops, but wide pants gathered to canions. This will make my life much easier when I make Rickard proper 16th century clothing, some time before August. (The biggest problem with his old 16th century clothes are that they don't fit him very well, not that they aren't period, because they are.)

As you probably predicted, I find this extremely hilarious!

*pictures the locksmith standing in front of a locked door, screeching: "You are an enemy of the Dalek! You will be destroyed! Exterminate! Exterminate!"*

Yeah, I thought of you.

Perhaps it is part of some evil Dalek plan for getting access to the Tardis?

It must be!

(Is that the Earl's Court one in your icon?)

What is that picture? I haven't come across it before, and it's fab!

I wrote about it an earlier post (http://frualeydis.livejournal.com/386510.html), it's a 1564 painting of the calvinist temple in Lyon. Though the dresses and headwear look more flemish to me. I like that style, it's the same as my Anthonis Mor dress (http://web.comhem.se/~u41200125/bilder/morfront2.jpg), and very similar to the contemporary english fitted gown, except that it's low cut.
