Last Saturday was the official 'best day of the year on Twitter', likely for the last time.

That is naturally Sam's Penguins hosting the annual Draw A Penguin Day – when everyone is encouraged to draw a penguin. It makes everyone's day better, give it a try!

And as usual, the following Weekly Penguin is my contribution in wallpaper form. Again, mine was a digital speed painting. Well, not that speedy, clocking at 3 hours, but still.

Twitter is in death spiral whilst its owner keeps pumping gasoline to the flames, so for this year I decided to do Sam's Penguin and our Pablo comforting the now-unemployed blue bird who helped us meet.

Huge thank you for Sam and his penguins – this event always brings a smile to my face! Here's hoping we'll find a way to continue it.
