Tintin: Then and Now

I have been trying to put the finishing touches on my flat recently, fleshing out the skeleton of the larger items. To do so, I have delighted in buying plants and rugs and photoframes, which may not seem like much but which mean a great deal to a young upstart crow with her first place of residence. I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Tintin shop in Chinatown, and though I could not afford (and have no inclination to buy) the more expensive paraphernalia, I came away with a poster, a plastic folder, and three Tintin postcards. It occurred to me that I could put the postcards in the photo frame I had purchased weeks before, and I even found space for the Tintin movie postcard that came with the DVD. (Who am I kidding? There's always space for Tintin.)


 I am very pleased with the result.
