  1. On this day in 1859, author of much-loved children's classic #storybook #WindintheWillows Kenneth Grahame, was born.

    Naturally Toad, Ratty, Badger and Mole play a central role in my #painting of Old Father #Thames.

    “There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats."

    See the whole painting here: janetomlinson.com/products/old It's a cracker!

    THANKS for looking. 🙏

  3. Absolutely shameless appropriation of #WindintheWillows for political purposes on #BBC Radio 4 at the moment. It's brilliant. 👌🏼

  5. ‘Demonic’ #WindInTheWillows jumper #banned from #WestminsterAbbey | #London | The Guardian

    Security guards who are ignorant of the origin of a picture think it’s supposedly #demonic. And even if it were, how would that hurt someone? It’s not even a provocative or threatening message.

  8. David Petersen’s illustrated edition of The Wind in the Willows returns

    Review by C. J. Bunce The 1908 children's book The Wind in the Willows is one of those fantastic books that belong on the shelf along with The Hobbit, Winnie the Pooh, and Huckleberry Finn.  Seven famous illustrators (and countless others) over the years have provided the visual representations of Kenneth Grahame's famous Mole, Rat, Toad, and Badger...

  12. Ещё одна книга #windinthewillows, на сей раз с иллюстрациями Rene Cloke 1985 года
    Что интересно, тут можно наблюдать классический #narrowboat (в оригинале была «баржа», без уточнения габаритов судна)

  13. あと、流木宮殿は、

    今井寿への愛が爆発する!
    まさに、祭壇!

    #銀河庭園、一般人は入れなくなったけど、

    #今井寿 本人には見せてくれないと、面白くないでしょ。
    ファンの愛は伝わってたほうがいいよなー

  14. こっちの吹き替えの声がMr.Toad🐸と同じなんだ

    床に寝転んでカエル足で動くところとか

    「これは!Mr.Toad🐸がギターをかき鳴らしてる姿!

    今井寿!そのもの!」

    に見えるんだよな

  15. К вопросу об одинаковых книгах. Я уже писал, что собираю разные издания #windInTheWillows, и вот какая херня мне попалась

    1. Одинаковые (почти) обложки
    2. Одинаковые форзацы
    3. Разные переводы

    Ребят, вы совсем тю-тю?

  16. — Под землей ты всегда знаешь, где ты находишься, — сказал Крот. — Ничего с тобой не случится и никто на тебя не набросится. Ты сам себе хозяин, и тебе не надо ни с кем советоваться и обращать внимание, кто что о тебе скажет. Там, над головой, что-то происходит, а тебе до этого нет никакого дела, и ты ни о ком и не думаешь. А как захочешь — раз! — и можешь подняться наверх, и пожалуйста — всё тебя дожидается и все к твоим услугам

  17. Нашёл у себя очередную аудиокнижку «Ветер в ивах» (я собираю издания «ветра»). Проглотил «Жабфорт» вместо Toad hall, пропустил перевод пабов как «бары», и дошёл до сцены с мышками
    БЛЯДЬ!
    Ну не могут быть рождественские БАЛЛАДЫ!
    Колядки, хоралы!
    Говнари, не переводите книги!

  18. "Once well #underground," he said, "you know exactly where you are. Nothing can happen to you, and nothing can get at you. You're entirely your own master, and you don't have to consult anybody or mind what they say. Things go on all the same overhead, and you let 'em, and don't bother about 'em. When you want to, up you go, and there the things are, waiting for you."

  19. A. A. Milne on his inspiration for the book:

    "I came out early, oh, ever so early. Nobody was up, the birds weren't up and even the sun wasn't up. And everything was so still that there was no sound in all the world, except just the wind in the willows, whispering ever so gently." ~A.A. Milne

    Which I came across and saved from the A.A.Milne bot on Twitter, a long time ago. It is still there.

  21. “Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing –absolutely nothing– half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats” - ‘Ratty & Mole’ spotted in #Salcombe Harbour earlier. #Devon #windinthewillows

  22. Guys, this Mr. Toad (WIND IN THE WILLOWS) poster is blowing my mind. It is by Peter Diamond, you can buy it, and here's an interview with more of his boss art (check out that tiger!): blackdragonpress.co.uk/blogs/n
    The "Little Nemo at the Slumberland Cafe" image fills me with DETERMINATION (that perspective, gyaaah! how do you even start to learn that.)
