“Maybe we’ll find a little adventure,” joked Herself as we headed out for a walk in the neighbourhood after dinner last night. We live in one of London’s quieter districts and the evenings tend to be tame on this side of town. We’re low-key people. We like it that way.

Nearing the end of our route, Herself caught sight of a strange looking object wedged between the branches of a tree. Ever curious, we went to check it out and discovered that it was actually a canvas board containing this signed illustration by The Wild Doodler:

On the back of the card were instructions to post a picture with the piece to Instagram and tag @WildDoodler, which, of course, we were happy to do.

We carried on back to the house and along the way, if you can believe it, we stumbled across another illustration. This piece was left on a wall:

Once more, I posted the image to Instagram, and next thing we know, the Doodler posted this to his 10,000 followers. I guess this makes herself famous.

We got back to our building and I led the way up the stairs back to the flat with the artworks in hand.

“I told you there would be an adventure,” Herself said up to me.

“Well,” I looked back at her.” It certainly beats the hell out of hunting for Pokémon.”
