  • Christmas card 2022

    I know we said that if we adopted a 3rd cat, we’d skip getting a kid. Oh well. This year Ila joined us and, as if all stars aligned, it was the perfect set to create baby Jesus’ birth. My grandma (bless her) would’ve been proud… 😉 The cats as the three kings, Joseph and…

  • Christmas card 2021

    Mumu (née Mullet) officially joined us in the 2021 card. While he was alive and well the year before — we hadn’t decided to adopt him yet — so not officially part of the family just yet. His mummy and 2 brothers got adopted shortly after Christmas, and we decided to keep him as a…

  • Christmas card 2020

    Right in the middle of Covid (linking to the Wikipedia article because 20 years from now this will be but a very distant reminder). With all the lockdowns and travel restrictions, all our travel plans in 2020 (and most of 2021) were cancelled (yes, I book flights sometimes a year in advance). Trips to Paris,…

  • Christmas card 2018

    As our family grew, we had to start including more into the card. This year, Tofu was introduced. Tofu was a 6-week-old kitten when we got her. She was likely abandoned by a breeder for her crooked tail. She lacks some social skills and has quite the temper. But nonetheless, she’s our Tofu.

  • Christmas card 2017

    Every year, we, Shan and I, send a Christmas card to people we care about (so yeah, sorry if you didn’t get one ;)). The idea is quite simple: bad photoshopping meets something relevant and/or funny. I just realised we never posted these online, and so maybe it’s time to create an archive. In the…

    Climate protests

    Last week, an Australian climate protester, who blocked a lane of traffic on the Sydney Harbour Bridge, was sentenced to up to 15 months in prison under a new anti-protest law. It was one of many recent disruptive climate protests that seem to do little else than annoy and inconvenience everyone. Our knee-jerk reaction to…
