A row of crocheted mushrooms sat atop a radiator. They are different shapes and sizes, and all of them have different caps in different colours. There are tall pointy ones and crooked wizardy ones and wavy edged ones and rounded ones. They all have eyes and they are all looking at you.
A black and white cat lying on his back, legs akimbo.
A black cat stretched out on a lap. He looks blissfully happy. He is radiating heat.
A crocheted mushroom with little nubbin feet and a crooked pointy wizard hat.
A crocheted squid in shades of red and orange, a crocheted mushroom with a green pointy cap, and a crocheted mushroom body with no cap yet.
A quote from Mort by Terry Pratchett. It reads "The only thing known to go faster than ordinary light is monarchy, according to the philosopher Ly Tin Wheedle. He reasoned like this: you can't have more than one king, and tradition demands that there is no gap between kings, so when a king dies the succession must therefore pass to the heir instantaneously. Presumably, he said, there must be some elementary particles -- kingons, or possibly queons -- that do this job, but of course succession sometimes fails if, in mid-flight, they strike an anti-particle, or republicon. His ambitious plans to use his discovery to send messages, involving the careful torturing of a small king in order to modulate the signal, were never fully expanded because, at that point, the bar closed."
A photo of four crocheted mushrooms with white bodies and black eyes. From left to right they have 1) a mottled green sombrero-style cap with ridges around the edge, 2) a dark red cap that comes to a shallow bump in the center with a ruffled edge, 3) a mottled red/yellow hill-shaped cap, 4) a tall blue cap with a twisty point, which looks like a wizard’s hat.
A crocheted mushroom with a blur pointy cap. It has two small eyes and is looking at you.

A very long crocheted giant millipede. He has 168 legs. His body is striped in pastel rainbow colours and his legs are a deep pinky-red. He is as long as a double bed.

A blurry photo of two cats fighting on a bed.
A grey and white cat asleep on a bed, stretching out one paw in front of her.
A black and white cat curled up in a camping chair, looking as happy as larry
A bunch of black and white photos arranged in an irregular grid. They are printed on paper, from a thermal paper instant camera. Most of them are of a gig stage with lights shining out, often illuminating an ‘H’ shape. One of them is of the cluster of buildings at Canary Wharf taken from across the water, and one of them is of Dan (my husband) - a white guy in glasses wearing a t-shirt that says “Dancing to a Modernist Beat”.
A photo of a photo, taken on an instant thermal paper camera, of a cat.
A pair of feet clad in red socks and red & white checked shoes with white soles. The shoes have crystals on the red squares. They are very swish.
A form with two fields; email address and phone number. The user has written “no phone” in the phone field; this has triggered an error because it’s not a valid phone number. The user cannot proceed.
A black and white cat in a tree, looking quite alarmed about the whole thing.
A photo of a grey cat with white paws and jowls, lying on my lap, looking grudgingly happy about it.

A crocheted hexagon using the ‘brioche crochet’ technique which allows for two types of yarn to be interwoven. It looks like branches and leaves growing out from the center of the hexagon - the ‘background’ is navy blue and the branches are light bluey/green.
A photo of a grey and white cat lying on a bed getting her head scratched. She looks very happy.
A photo of a crocheted lampshade. It’s a hyperbolic plane made around a metal circle, in blues and pinks. It coils around itself like waves. It’s for a friend who I met through scuba diving and it’s very evocative of the ocean.
A black and white cat stretched out on his back on someone’s lap, with his limbs splayed out. He is fast asleep.
A sleepy looking grey and white cat lying on a bed. I am in the bed, underneath the cat.
A photo of a wall with a number of pictures hung on it, including a framed copy of Under Milkwood on vinyl (narrated by Dylan Thomas), a tree of life painting on papyrus from Egypt, a large circular crocheted mandala, a 2026 year planner, a printing press tray which will be filled with trinkets, portraits of our cats, a print by Rob Turpin of a lighthouse with tentacle roots, a Bearded Theory poster, and a linoprint of Glastonbury Tor
Thomson's background is far from academic: he went to comprehensive school in Worthing, West Sussex, and got a taste for physics only after reading a popular book about science at Cern in his early teens. "It kind of set my direction," he says. "I wanted to understand how the universe worked." He became the first in his family to go to university, reading physics at Oxford.
A photo of a red crocheted cat house on one of the platforms of a cat tree. Smokey (a grey and white cat) is inside the house while Bandit (a black and white cat) sits on another platform and bats at her.
A photo of a crocheted cat house that is nearly complete. A cat is inside the cat house, biting and grabbing at the crochet hook and trailing yarn. A claw and a tooth are visible.
A photo of two framed illustrations. The illustration on the left is of Smokey - a female grey and white tuxedo kitten - with the text ‘she said come over come over’ written underneath. The illustration on the right is of The Bandit - a male black and white tuxedo kitten - with the text ‘she smiled at you boy’ written underneath.
A photo of a comically large cat tree, this thing is easily 7 foot tall, with three stories plus a crows nest, and multiple rooms. There are two kittens on the upper levels of it, looking really quite shocked about the whole thing.
A photo of a black and white tuxedo kitten. He is lying on his back on my husband’s lap, fast asleep, with his front paws down by his sides and his back legs in the air. He looks fully blissed out and completely ridiculous.
A photo of a television showing the opening credits of A Muppet’s Christmas Carol.
A video of a Christmas tree in a bay window. A kitten is on the windowsill batting at one of the decorations on the tree.
A photograph of a bright yellow pompom, which is looking slightly lopsided. It is sitting on the floor and all around it are individual threads that have clearly been pulled from the pompom with malice aforethought. To the left of the pompom, coming towards the camera in a blur of movement, is a black and white tuxedo cat.
A front-on photo of a grey-and-white cat with white paws and *huge* eyes. She is emerging from a spirally rainbow-coloured "thing", which is a crocheted hyperbolic plane, and has turned out to be a fantastic cat toy.
A photo of the lower half of a door. In the bottom left hand corner is a cat flap. On the other side of the cat flap is a small black and white cat. He is looking through the catflap at you. His eyes are very wide.
A black and white tuxedo kitten lying on his back on a crocheted blanket in my husband’s lap. He is fast asleep with his paws up in the air, his front paws slightly curled, living his absolute best life.
A photo of a black and white kitten asleep inside a crocheted green cardigan. You can see his head, the rest of him is wrapped in the cardigan. He is fast asleep and looks like he is slightly smiling.
A photo of a grey kitten sitting on a pile of crochet and looking at the camera innocently. You can see stitch markers in the crochet and a long thread of yarn. I am trying to sew it together. Smokey is blissfully unaware.
A photo of a crocheted hyperbolic plane - a surface with an exponentially increasing surface area. It is rainbow coloured and it loops and swirls about - in the center of it, poking about from amid the swirls, is the head of a black and white kitten. His paw is poking out from the bottom. It looks like he is wearing an extremely elaborate costume, the sort of thing you’d see on the red carpet at the Met Gala.
A photo of a black and white kitten lying on a bed making a derp face. There is not a single thought in that beautiful head.
A photo of two kittens eating a cardboard box
A photo of a black and white cat stretched out on my lap. He is sort of on his back except for his torso which is bent over my leg and twisted at an angle that really doesn’t look like it should be comfortable. He is fast asleep.
A photo of me (white woman, short bleached blonde hair, glasses). My hand is outstretched, palm down, and on the back of my hand is perched a stick insect that is as long as my palm. I look *delighted*
A photo of a black and white kitten in loaf mode, looking at the camera like butter wouldn’t melt.
A photo of a black and white kitten with sleepy eyes curled up inside a rainbow crocheted blanket.
A photo of a thick cardboard poster tube. Sticking out of one end of the tube are two paws and a kitten’s head. Sticking out of the other end of the tube is a leg and a tail. Another kitten can be seen sitting near the tube.
A small black and white kitten sitting on top of a pile of purple and green crochet. His eyes are wide and his paw is clutching the yarn string.
A photograph of a sofa against a wall. The sofa is covered in an orange throw and there are two cushions on it. Peeking up from behind the sofa are two pointy ears and a small paw.
A small black and white kitten curled up on a brightly coloured rainbow cardigan. He is looking over his shoulder at you.
There is a fluffy cat toy on a sort of plastic fishing rod, the rod is jammed into the keyhole of a desk drawer so the toy is suspended in mid air. A small black kitten is jumping up and down and playing with the toy. It is adorable.
A photo of a small black kitten who has not yet grown into his ears. He is sitting on my lap and staring up at the camera.
A small grey kitten peering around two cardboard boxes. She has white mittens.
