Two oldies from me today
What smashing pics from everyone. Couldn’t resist this VERY quick sketch it’s in wax crayon and I was in the  front row  at the International Eisteddfod   In Llangollen and my hand was racing to the music.   They saw me and surrounded me wither trumpets to look at my drawing.   It was loud .
That sounds fab Sylvia! The liveliness shows in your sketch. The 29th already. I stopped listening to The Archers many years ago, so came up with just one archer, drawn from the statue of Robin Hood in Nottingham by James Woodford. Nice to do some pencil drawing, it’s been a while!

The Archers ( English and Welsh longbow men ). So feared by the French that the would cut of the index and middle finger of and bowman captured. After the battle of  Agincourt , where the French night thrashed by the bow men it’s recorded that the English and Welsh lined up waving their two fingers at be French as the marched past In defeat , that’s where to two finger salute originated. 
Snap!
Strange when I posted my version there was no post fir today above it ,great minds Tessa or is the the other version. 
Unsnap. Ambridge residents.
Clever girl Sylvia. Dixie I had made a short comment earlier , then edited to add my drawing, presumably as you were doing yours!
I really don't want to draw this man.
That made me laugh Lew!  I did have a bash- not great but I think pouty enough 
That’s good Tessa. No doubt whatsoever who it is
I cannot be serious about this person , but I did find. Copy of his passport photo , it’s unaltered. I also discovered the CIA us code for each person when they are on the move , Trump is TANGO ONE.
