The short version is you wouldn’t classify a one off drawing as a “consumer good” but you could see how a run of prints or batch could be classified as a “consumer good”.

The definition of a “product” is outlined in 3(1) - a line drawing isnt designed for interactive use. In 3(2) it would be deemed “safe”, no mechanical, chemical, thermal, electrical risk. It doesn’t have any physical characteristics like sharp edges or pointy bits and isn’t significantly heavy.

I’ve looked into this myself and for a client. A one-off piece of art is likely exempt and out of scope as isn’t a “product”. You could decide to disclose and reference the make of paper/ink you use and be very confident that you’re all good.

No the other way round, bottom tooth, top root. Probably horse. Used to be a market garden which used a lot of horse manure, so thats my guess about how it got there.

I was in Lea on Sea and saw a manager of a coffee shop we used to go to. I said to my wife “Look who it is!!! Don’t stare though
” as a joke, as if the manager were some sort of celebrity and Lulu was standing immediately opposite us, she looked up and smiled.

Oh I see, the one on the right has a rail both sides. My brain sees these two versions as the inside and outside of the fence. The right hand version only having a rail one side.

Depends on which side of the fence?

I’m also old because I zoomed in on the skip contents to see if there’s anything I could ask you to put side for me

Yeah when they blank out parts of the message like that it’s hard for the user to understand what the message is about

Bluetooth headsets that glowed blue, saying “It was a different time”, motivational quotes on office mugs, covering Victorian table legs, double denim, lobotomies, pressing a live frog against your sore throat to absorb the illness, Segways replacing walking, ear candling, radium cosmetics
