Wishing you all a Happy Christmas 2020

 Had a surprise Christmas card/gift the other day from fellow Bristol builder Mike B.

Merry Christmas from Mike Berry 2020

Always wanted one of these (below image) and over the years, I have attempted to create one.....but the results where something I wasn’t anywhere near happy with lol. Mike and his design, printing skills, came up with this tho.

Card back of R5, created by Mike Berry

Whatever your beliefs for the Christmas season, I’d like to wish all who are reading this, a very Happy Christmas from myself & of course R5.


Mental Health message:

2020 has not been a good year for all of us, in many different ways and then there’s COVID to top it all off. I like to think of myself as a ‘glass half full’ person and try to always look on the positive side of life. Perspective is always a good thing to keep in mind when things don’t look good, they can and do, get better! Find a little something that makes you smile and feel good, keep these little happy moments and add to them. I find (apart from family/my children) that being creative, designing, making stuff really helps me.

2021 is on its way so a new year, new start and hopefully we can all get back to what we used to call, normal!

If you need to seek more help, see your Dr, there’s NO shame in asking for help!

If you don’t feel you can’t in person, then try contacting CALM, the Charity Against Living Miserably.

Merry Christmas gifts 2019

Being a Dad, Christmas gifts are usually simple stuff, unless specifically requested by me lol. This year I got boxer shorts, socks and a cool tie.....all STAR WARS of course lol

Best part tho was when putting them away, I realised that one pair of boxers matched up with the tie lol.
.........No I won’t be posting picks of me in this combo :D lol.

Film: The Rise of Skywalker [no spoilers]

Hi everyone,

(Spoiler Free post)
The Rise of Skywalker, Vue Cinema

I took the family along to watch the new film last night (no midnight viewing lol). We went to our 'local' Vue Cinema, was disappointed tho with the lack of merch, cup's with toppers was all they had!

Christmas Card 2019 - Lee Towersey

Received this cool Christmas card from Lee. As I wasn’t able to attend the group’s Xmas event on Saturday, he kindly popped it in the post.

The card was designed by Topps artist, Marsha Parkins and features a number of droids Lee has worked with over the last few years on the films.
The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, Solo a Star Wars story to name drop just three lol.




Marsha has a few socials, Facebook etc, but checkout her gallery over on Deviant Art:
