I don't like being given ornaments. I have very few places to display anything so have to look at what I can get rid of to make a space. Then you end up with a bunch of things you don't even like in case those people pop in for a visit.
People will come from strange lands to hear me speak my words of wisdom. They will ask me the secret of life and I will tell them. Then maybe I'll finish off with a song. The Nomad

You need a shed for your ornaments, all labelled, so that you can bring them out when people pop in for a visit.

I could call it my gallery and just let people see the things out there.   8)

That's probably how museums started - somewhere for the nobility to get rid of their armless statues.

I spent all day in a museum yesterday, talking about myself... and I was paid to do it.  :-\
I apologise, in advance.

Don't tell me: you're armless and someone found somewhere else to put you.

Was this part of a living history exhibit?

 :D I guess you could say that, Diane. I was booked to give a series of four hourly (as distinct from four-hourly) talks about cartooning and my career/history in it. This was part of the UK's 'Big Draw' campaign at Bradford's National Media Museum. Events designed to encourage people  to draw are held at this time of year all around the country. There was also a little drawing thrown in for light relief. Thankfully, no-one fell asleep apart from me.

I would have attended, if it were not so far.

Do you have "Comic Book Day" (May 2 this year) over there? I volunteered at the library for that this year - we hired a young lady from the city who has a few things published but is still in college, show children and youth the steps of creating cartoon characters. The end results looked good but I was doing face-painting non-stop during the event so couldn't get over to watch.  The neat thing was she brought along a couple of her college friends a juggler and a unicycle rider - you don't see many people taking up those occupations these days.
