\"advent10\"Woah, double figures! That means I’ve posted for 10 days straight \ud83d\ude2e Oh, OK, 9 days straight since I didn’t start until Day 2, but it’s still something of an achievement since I’m usually hard-pressed to post a couple of times a month.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I’ve finally found what I want for Christmas and with the World card yesterday, who knows, I may even get it. Mind you, Santa will have to lay hands on somewhere in the region of five and a half million quid, but hey, Santa has to have a massive budget, right? What’s a few million here or there!<\/p>\n

So what costs over \u00a35 million, is gorgeously Victorian Gothic and has a surprise in the attic? This\u00a0<\/a>and just so I don’t get caught out by disappearing websites again, here are some of the pics (you’ll have to click on the link for the surprise) :<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"alien-house\"<\/p>\n

\"alien-house4\" \"alien-house7\"<\/p>\n

Mind you, I think they missed a trick by not doing up\u00a0the attic in Steampunk style \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

Sadly, the article is from February and so, in all likelihood, this gorgeousness has been snapped up. Oh well, best we move on to today’s Advent Card.<\/p>\n

The deck I have picked for today is the original* Steampunk Tarot and today’s card is….LOL the Wheel of Fortune \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

\"advent010\"<\/a>
\nWeh-hey!\u00a0Best I start buying lottery tickets soon. Either that, or if the imagery is anything to go by, run away and join the circus, though I’m probably a bit past my prime as far as those bendy acrobatics are concerned.<\/p>\n

Funnily enough, I finally renewed my passport a couple of months ago and, when asked, by various people,\u00a0if I was off\u00a0anywhere in particular, I would just reply that I was planning to run away to join the circus. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

In truth, I do have some loose plans for a road trip to Italy with a friend (and some of our children, maybe) before long, though where children are concerned, running away to join the circus can seem like quite an attractive option at times.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"advent010b\"<\/p>\n

All of which brings me to the slight confession I\u00a0must make. I did actually draw the Tower card first today, but I liked the image so much that I just didn’t feel it had a sufficiently\u00a0dramatic Tower-vibe to it, so I picked another. \u00a0I mean, I’ve never been to Pisa and it is a little worrying when you look at the Tower card and find it appealing. don’t you think?<\/p>\n
