White Whale’s Love Hearts

Our regulars will know of the significance in Charles Lamb’s journal of white/albino animals and the role of hearts in illustrating the value of Love, Art and Nature.  Well, surprise surprise there’s a white whale in Polar land China that has been trained to blow heart shaped bubbles.  Interesting…

Here’s a video of the whales blowing bubbles and doing other tricks…

Go-Go Hamster!

Our story tells how Sarah likes to play with our hamster, Dixie; putting him inside his plastic ball whilst she tried in vain to win at cards! There’s a lot of symbolism behind this event. The hamster running in his ball is meant to illustrate how human society is organised - we toil in the hope of improving our lives cocooned by modern comforts to protect us and enhance our existence, when all the while we are gambling with our future, living in an unsustainable consumerist way that is exhausting the world’s finite resources and polluting the planet in the process.

How amusing then that this year’s must have toy for Christmas is the ‘G0-Go Hamster’ and that smart electronic hamster is now subject to a toxic warning from an independent consumer group.  The manufacturers refute the claims arguing that the toy has passed themost rigourous testing for health and safety. All the same, another curious oddity linked to The Haymakers Survey.  As the video below explains we have a message for those in Copenhagen, ‘Change the world its no big deal’.
