i've decided to start a new category which i hope you'll all enjoy. i don't normally 'big-up' a new category, but i'm hoping this will be a good one.

it's Hassocks. you know. those church kneeler things.

the best ones are those made by members of the church congregation (some of whom may be reading this so i need to be careful).

Hassocks combine many of my favourite things:

* resting/kneeling down (though i'd rather sit to be honest)
* 1980s computer graphics
* tenuous religious links
* home-made crafting (cross stitch and needlepoint)
* church building interiors
* chocolate

he's our first one, which has a dog on it. dog is an anagram of odg and ogd, but also God. which is why i assume it's on a Hassock.

great stuff.
