It’s sort of what I was trying to say. My contribution to the #Tag #SundayPixWombat was the fact that the #SundayPix #Tag exists at all. How else could we have ‘met’. If not for The Wombat? :)

A white mug sitting on a remover's cardboard box. The mug said "I hope your new neighbours aren't cunts" on it.
This has reminded me of the mug @wombat37.bsky.social sent me when I moved house. It has pride of place in my kitchen.

#SundayPix #SundayPixWombat I don’t have any pictures of @wombat37.bsky.social I can contribute to the #tag
The fact that there is a #tag thing/game/event called #SundayPix & #SundayPix<Subject> well. That’s all down to him & it’s given me a lot of pleasure over the years. Long may it continue.

Before our Wombat began the weekly delight that is #SundayPix, in the days of Twitter yore, we had the occasional themed photo challenge from @Origami_Owl (Paul Groom).
Look closely at the contributors to find a familiar name (indeed, a few!).

Here's a selection of @wombat37.bsky.social paperbacks - I have the completed & separate copies of Madame Monvoisin's Emporium of Extraordinary Adventures, b/c that's me on the cover.😊 If you have to name just one fav story, I'd say Mythily.

A white mug with an old bookcover of mine printed on it (Pool of Players by Miranda Kate). The handle & inside of my mug is light green.
I received this unexpectedly in the post. It's a mug showing the cover of one my books (it actually has a different cover now). This is the kind of lovely thing @wombat37.bsky.social does.

A small dog in his favourite blue sweatshirt, standing on the pouffe in front of the television trying to impress on us that we need to make room on the sofa.
We’ve never met but you’ve always been a lovely presence on my timeline. Sending love and hugs.
(Picture of small dog for smiles)

One man looks to his right with binoculars; another man and woman are smiling into the camera. They're in the desert, which seems to stretch on for miles.
#SundayPixWombat Intrepid explorers in the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park! Here's @badunderpants.bsky.social, @wombat37.bsky.social, and @littlemavis.bsky.social in November of 2015.

A man is standing in an airy building full of plants; he has a baseball cap on backwards. Shocking. A woman stands just in front of him, smiling.
#SundayPixWombat Here's @wombat37.bsky.social with @littlemavis.bsky.social, looking terribly American at San Diego's Balboa Park in the Botanical Building in November of 2015!

There's a rainbow lorikeet sitting atop a man's head! Why, it's Wombat! It's a lorikeet on a wombat -- very Australian.
A man has one lorikeet sitting on his head, and another perched on his wrist drinking nectar out of a cup in his hand.
Put a bird on it! Here's @wombat37.bsky.social feeding rainbow lorikeets at the San Diego Safari Park (then called the San Diego Wild Animal Park) in November 2015. #SundayPixWombat

It's Wombat and Little Mavis standing in front of some euphorbia plants. They look like cactus, but they're not!
Wombat and Little Mavis are riding the Skyfari cable car, high above the San Diego Zoo. Wombat is sticking his tongue out and making a silly face.
I have a lot of great photos of @wombat37.bsky.social! Here are a couple from a trip to the San Diego Zoo in November 2015. #SundayPixWombat

Three people stand on a beach with a beautiful blue sky above them and the towers of the Hotel Del Coronado behind them and to their right.

Two men stand in front of a plaza where people are wandering to shops and market stalls. They're grinning broadly. It's a beautiful day.
#SundayPixWombat A grand day out in Bury in September 2013 with our favorite Wombat @wombat37.bsky.social

Nothing makes me feel happier than thinking of times spent with people I love and who love me, & I certainly love you dear Wombat. Here we are from the Beatles tour we went on together, seeing all the Liverpool sights and singing Beatles songs!

The front cover of The Raven's Wing by Wombat.
This is a splendid book and you should all buy it and read it. #SundayPixWombat #SundayPixWombie #SundayPixWombat37

The back of two excellent men, a VW T25 called Eric the Bananavan, and some planes. Totterdown Farm, a hill outside RIAT, July 2016
Planes in a van!

And, appropriately for his birthday, some of the many gifts I’ve received thanks to his wonderful stewardship of Twanta over the years. Happy birthday, Michael, with all my love! #SundayPixWombat #SundayPixWombie

Tea by the seaside with Michael (& Mary, not pictured) and the kids
Walking the moors
Late night conversation with Mary and Michael—we didn’t want to go to bed because we didn’t want it to end!
Memories of one of the best trip’s I’ve ever taken, for #SundayPixWombat

A photo of me doing a Travolta disco pose and wearing a strapless ball dress ( I was 19). Wombat has photoshopped me onto a pick of him standing by the sea so I am picking his nose.
How clever he is at photoshop. #SundayPixWombie #SundayPixWombat #SundayPixWombat37

Four middle-aged white people are seated at a table. They look quite happy, because they are having a lovely evening.
Three middle-aged white people have their arms around each other and are smiling from the joy of being together.

A very badly drawn wombat. It is incredibly badly drawn. There are some small squares behind it to represent the square poos that wombats do actually produce.
Happy Birthday @wombat37.bsky.social
In honour of the occasion I have "drawn" you a wombat, with authentic square poos

Just occasional in the world there is a Wombat, creating magic, as communities are born. The 37th Wombat bring kindness to the land, and grow the forest strong with friendships, full of possibilities and tales, with places for traditions, and sizzling sausages to share. In the woodland, seasons come and go. Through the cold of winter, trees remain.. until one day, beyond imagining, leaves will brave the world again
It pictures of the nicest leaves for Wombat.
In the darkness we did find them, full of beauty, all the colours of the Autumn warm and glowing 🐾🌿

Idiots at football in Bury. One idiot is dressed as Big Bird.
@wombat37.bsky.social Sadly, we’ve never actually met in the physical world but here is a photo of me when we were in the same place at the same time. Happy birthday, dear boy, much love xx #SundayPixWombat

My first TweetUp at the YSP in 2014 I think. I was so nervous meeting people who I’d only ever interacted with virtually, but Wombat really does attract such a wonderful crowd of people, the occasion and the people were such a delight. THANK YOU

Bearded man with glasses and camouflage jacket, brunette woman wearing a pale scarf around her neck in a pink dress, and brunette woman with black glasses in a denim jacket standing against a pink tiled wall.
Wombat, Alex, and I in Nottingham back in 2015. Wombie is a gorgeous man! Considered, and thoughtful, but also the life of the party. He is also a logophile, sesquipedalian, wordsmith, and beautifully erudite. It's an honour to write with him! 💙

Four hands all pointing inwards like a compass, all wearing shades of teal or peacock blue nail polish.
Several of us found we were wearing the same colour nail polish that writer's day in Nottingham, including @wombat37.bsky.social Peacock blue!
