What were the guns for?? Natalie, once upon a time was an 'actor' on stage .. one of those people who tried to create a "willing suspension of dis-befief" ... everything was fake.

Natalie - the .45 pistol is a non functioning replica .. the horse and rider is real (Me and a horse called 'Mistre'); the rifle is something that i made out of wood.

Could, actually, tell you a story about when my house was invaded by "real" persons wearing black uniforms, and with "real" weapons strapped to the thigh ... all because i called the local plods to tell them that was experimenting with little bombs for an 'arts' project ..

Scary. when they turn up at 10.30pm on a Saturday night. Anyhoo, all was resolved peacefully ... more or less. The funny part of it was that self apparently scattered a sprinkling of 'silver glitter' over one of the "blacksuits" ..

Hope the sparkles made the plods acquire a sense of humour!

Dunno, really, Natalie .. am not there anymore. Hopefully will be remembered in that locality, and local 'folklore' as 'the Glitter bomber' .. heh.

Davoh said...

Um, Natalie .. there was a discussion in the house because the local plods could not get "mobile" phone connections; so had to use my landline.
Did ask if if i could get recompense .. but apparently there's a "charge" against me for 'dry cleaning'. Apparently spread too much "silver glitter" on the Blacksuit ... oops.
