The Library of Profanity closes its doors on Monday afternoon.
'Clitical Theory' (including authentic dewey decimal classification) has been sold to a real life librarian to be displayed in her real life office. This is the sort of elite service we like to provide.
Guaranteed to brighten your day -

Total fucking kudos to Becky Robinson for turning up wearing her entry to the Jan Lewis Memorial Award with the legend “not a fucking finalist”
What a cockwombling 🌟
Been bloody busy in the gallery today; this was a rare moment of relative peace.

Allegedly Tommy we know who got really upset recently about being called a Bellend.
Well, thats amongst the least offensive words we’d apply to that person. This was last minute addiction to the PEG sweary Library from Alison Fitzgerald. We had quite a few last minute inspiration pieces - but all admirably finished before hanging.
The exhibition is open Saturday 14th February (surely you have nothing better to do on Valentine’s Day?) 10am to 5pm, Sunday 15th February 11am to 4pm (ish) and Monday 16th February 10am to 5pm, when we then pack up and fuck off.
There’s a fair sprinkling of red dots around the gallery denoting sold work - Tommy is a bellend is one still up for grabs.

Seeing as it is Sunday, the PEG Sweary Library makes time for the Holey Bible…
Holey like Swiss Cheese. Eve is not impressed. She’s one of @whitstabletail Revolting Women.

Within the PEG imaginary Library (and what a cockwombling place of the mind that is!!! Not as quiet as one might hope because of all the cunty librarians shouting “shuck the fuck UPPPPP) … however, as I was writing, within the PEG library, we now step out of the horrors of the Children’s Library into the relative safety of “History”… or rather “Herstory”.
Two Elizabeth’s by @thatwayandthisway and Boudicca by @whitstabletail . If you can’t be arsed to Google the Latin, get thee to a bloody library.

Another PEG member working through childhood book trauma is Bridget Carpenter.
If you don’t know Struwwelpeter, you might want to leave things that way.
Snip snip…

The Children’s book department of the PEG Library exhibition is looking to be the largest section…
Clare Jackson has tackled a childhood horror and in making Bumpelstiltskin she says she will never again be afraid of the angry little man!!

Still in the Children’s Library: The Twat in the Hat… one of three Dr Seuss books given the PEG treatment by Wendy Robinson.
Our Sweery Library exhibition is at @fishslabgallery here in Whitstable, 11 to 16 February.
There’s some fucking brilliant work though we say so ourselves.
We shall be shouting “shhhh” a lot and might try to issue random overdue fines.
