Nothing and nobody shows off as well as a peacock and this chap is no exception. He is very proud to be the bird of the moment.

Of course Elizabeth Bennet is a little offended that Mr Darcy got be a social media star a bit earlier than her. She is after all the main character! She is a mature and high minded individual though and so she will rise above it.

Mr Darcy is reluctant to get into the lake in his shirt, even though he knows it is his signature move and it is expected of him. He would like to propose that the move should be summer months only. Nobody is listening, Mr Darcy.

George Washington is very excited about his birthday because it is tomorrow! He is itching to find out what all his presents are. He hopes not more ruffly collared shirts. He has loads of those. .

Happy Valentines Day! Romeo and Juliet are more of a cautionary tale than anything else. The lesson to be learnt is that you should always double check that your illicit lover is definitely not faking their own death before you take your own life in despair. Relatable. .

Puffins like the cold but they also appreciate a nice accessory. This one could not resist this green set of earmuffs that were on special in the January sales even though they're not very practical for fishing. Sacrifices sometimes have to be made in order to look one's bes…

William Shakespeare has been waiting patiently for his moment to come and it is finally here! Probably should have waited for his birthday or some other significant Shakespeare date but William just wanted to get out into the world of social media just as soon as his backgro…

The first of our now significant Suffragette range, created in time to celebrate the centennary of some women getting the vote in UK last year. It is now the turn of the USA to celebrate the same, though the 19th Amendment didn't go through until August, we are going to star…

The Kilted Father Christmas has decided to open up his horizons this year and attend the famous Venice Carnival, which starts in February. He is certain that he will blend in like a local in his traditional mask. He is very excited. To be fair, his response to everything is …

If you're feeling a bit chilly today (not that you necessarily are. We acknowledge that the southern hemisphere exists, even though it might sometimes seem as if we don't realise it. I'm sorry southern hemisphere) , it might be nice to imagine hanging out in the Mexican sun …

Here is a cat you can own without the trouble of feeding or taking care of it. You'll also save yourself the scathing looks that you inevitably get from a real cat. This lovely Scottish cat will never judge you...#christmasco1988 #christmas #handmade #instahandmade #christma…
