Nick’s Pic Of The Day
Never let it be said that life in the Redfern household is even remotely normal.
A few months back, me and Dana spent a couple of weeks staying with my good friend, cryptozoologist Jon Downes and his better half, Corinna - first for a week of just hanging out, drinking some fine wine and having a riotous good time at his centuries-old home in Devonshire, England. And the second to attend - and speak at - Jon’s “Weird Weekend” conference.
Well, as I decided to make a barbecued lunch for everyone (I’m hardly the greatest chef in the world, so it was just charred burgers and nuked sausages), Jon thought it would be a nice touch for me to have my own, personalized apron created by the good people of the Center for Fortean Zoology, of which Jon is the Director.
In the first picture, I am dishing out some of that aforementioned burned fodder to Mark North, resident illustrator at the CFZ. You can see the image on the apron emblazoned on the front. The second picture provides a “unique” close-up.
I’m not sure which was scarier: the apron itself or Dana’s face when she realized she had to take the photographs….
Be Afraid. Be Very Afraid.

What is that on that plate in the illustration on the apron? It looks like…scrambled eggs and hot dog wienies…yuccchhh! Did you put ketchup on that?

No, it’s actually sausage and mashed potatoes - or as it’s known in England: “Bangers and Mash.” A national delicacy once, but less so now.

And while we’re stuffing our faces, lets pause for a moment to remember Joseph Barbera, whose death is reported today. Lets all lift a toast of good British Beer to the co-creator of Fred, Daphne, Wilma, Shaggy and Scooby (we’ll not mention that other obnoxious little mutt appropriately doing time in the slammer for trying to sacrifice the Scoobster). And there’s a tear in our beer as Joe drives the Mystery Machine into the next dimension over, with Yogi Bear, Tom & Jerry, Huckleberry Hound, and all the rest riding in the back.
Thanks Joe, ya done good! Just leave us the Scooby Snacks.

A barbecue for everyone consisting of “…charred burgers and nuked sausages”?
So it is you who’s been molesting all those poor cows!

Did I say WILMA in there with Scooby and Company? I meant to say VELMA!
However WILMA, Fred, Barney, Betty, Dino, Pebbles and Bam Bam are ALSO in the van with Joe!
SALUT!
