Conspicuous Consumption
Have you ever been photographed sat on a balcony eating a croissant; or wallowed in luxury just for the sake of it? What's the most ostentatious thing you ever seen or done?

Croissants! Thousands of 'em!
I got offered a job this week, that comes with a pay rise that equals what many full time workers earn as a living wage. And I already earn enough to live a perfectly comfortable life. Yesterday morning I lay in bed considering buying a second houseā¦.a second fucking house for fucks sake...or perhaps a small aircraft.
If anyone has a better idea for the cash feel free to chip in with ideas.

Fancy helping a band of snarky puppeteers?
My friends and I do a thing which we love very much and which has a Kickstarter campaign set up to enable our continuing to do it. If you're interested, there's a link in my profile.

Can I have some money, please?
Preferably enough to treat my daughter to a day out at the seaside before school goes back.
