something unexpectedly quite anticipated here is, look you see, the unveiling of my new calendar for the year. the excitement from this comes, in part, from one of the few triumphs of last year. i picked up a semi cheap Star Wars concept art calendar for the year that was 2017, and a monthly look at it proved to be most popular viewing.
no, no Star Wars calendar this year. also no, not a calendar that i particularly set out to get. but, as you will be quite aware, you can only ever play the hand you are dealt. .
off to Poundland i went, then, as i had no wish to spend £3 on a calendar this year. that was what the Star Wars one cost me. i had every confidence that Poundland could offer me something of interest for a third, or if you like 33%, of that fee.
my hope was that they might have a calendar featuring The King, Elvis Presley as i am sure i have seen ones of Him before. alas, no. perhaps that is my punishment for not buying one for an earlier year. on offer instead, then, were ones featuring Sir Cliff Richard, the yet to be knighted Robbie Williams, flowers, Royal palaces and other buildings of residence, images off of the Only Fools & Horses tv show what used to be on the tele, and Little Mix, those renowned shout out to my ex people.
so yes, as you can see in the above and indeed below, instead i elected to go for one entitled "Babes", which would seem to feature several (12) (actually 13, no 14, as there is a minor image for Dec 17 and Jan 19) ladies who one might feel comfortable in calling "babes".
one does indeed get more "bang" for their "buck" at Poundland, should you be of a mind to use Americanesque terminology. above you can see the free, complimentary envelope to house the calendar in and free, complimentary sheet of cardboard to keep it straight. this would be, i imagine, if you wanted to post the calendar as a gift to someone.
do i feel betrayed or let down by Poundland over the matter of a lack of calendar this year featuring The King, Elvis Presley? not particularly. their lack of stock of such probably reflects my not purchasing one before. also, their range is decidedly British, English in nature. no matter what anyone may tell you otherwise, there really is no harm in taking a bit of national pride in national treasures such as Little Mix.
that said, no, i do not know the provenance of the models featured in the calendar. i have no idea if the "babes" featured in the Babes 2018 calendar are of the UK, or herald from some other land. doesn't really matter, i suppose.
whereas this might be a little late for any practical use this month, i thought some of you may well want to look at January 2018 as it appears on this new calendar. and so here you are, or there it is above, to be sure.
yes, undoubtedly there is a sexualist tone to my new calendar, but not an overt one. it might not be all artsy, like them Pirelli ones, but it does not (so far as i can ascertain) feature any full blown nudies. not like them smart calendars what seem to be on the wall of every car mender garage you go to in the UK.
in many respects, i suppose, this calendar is quite comparable to one that Spiros got me a few years ago. that one was called "Greek Lovers" or similar, and did pretty much what it said on the box. a major difference would be that the one what Spiros got featured sexualist activities apparently enjoyed exclusively by men who liked men with other men what liked men. that is the way of the Spiros.
there will be several of you who are interested in seeing the various images on this new calendar of mine, i know, but simply cannot be bothered, or "CBA", to come and look here every month. for you, then, in the above picture i showcase the back of the calendar. that clearly shows all the images which shall feature for each month.
well, there you go. let me contemplate what to do with the days listed on this calendar.
be excellent to each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
