It was the 203rd anniversary of Charles Darwin’s birth yesterday. Here, have a few of my favourite Darwin pics/posters/macros.

Ah yes, my favorite Victorian Chuckie D!
It was also the 38th anniversary of my birth on Sunday. /subtle ;-) I always think it’s a bit ironic that I share my birthday with Darwin, as the ‘survival of the fittest’ is so often used to tell me and others like me that we should not be alive. Born 3 months premmie, 3 pound birth weight, 1 in a hundred chance of survival, incubator “if she survives she’ll be a vegetable, won’t be able to walk or talk, put her in an institution”, dx-d with cerebral palsy at 2, walking isn’t too great, talking better than a lot of people would like (too much!), doing both at once is challenging. Hell, I AM one of the fittest who has survived!!!
Happy Birthday Book Girl.
