Weekly Macro Challenge - ending 8pm Sun. 15th Nov. 2020 - Off the shelf

Well then, what can I say...well, lots really, as it happens, but I shall be the ultimate epitome of brevity itself...yeah, and if you believe that, you'll believe anything.
I wonder if Dom will return to Epsilon-5 and resume his previous career as a nanny, or stay on Earth and retrain in the same way others who have lost their jobs or been furloughed have been encouraged to do?
His short career on Spitting Image is coming to a premature end...perhaps Sir Kier can use him...
Anyway, let's talk photography, and macro images in particular, shall we? Anyone who thinks this is the B&W challenge thread, please leave now, and don't flounce or slam the door.
So let's test the temperature of the entries by beginning with;
Chris and her thermometer. Now then, is this a hot entry, or a cold one...time will tell, but I shall be judging in Centigrade, not Fahrenheit today, can't be bothered to convert from one to t'other.
Phil and the Piglets. I thought you were having a laugh and had made up that game, but google confirms its existence...a pig snorting a line while his mate looks on...hmmm...
Andrew the mahout...those are the sleepiest efferlumps I have ever seen - I can hear them snoring form here. Do they provide manure for your roses?
Dave and Thunderbird 2...Dave sees himself as Brains, I reckon - well, he's certainly no Lady Penelope. Perhaps Parker, not Brains? Hmmm...
Alison (IL) All Hail!!... Ye gods and little fishes but that's one scary doll! I bet she can turn her head around 360° and do weird things with a crucifix...where's the garlic...
Eddie and his badge which he takes out once a week and polishes. I suppose it is highly appropriate that we post images here. Well done on long and true service, Pat, erhm, I mean , Eddie.
I shall cut an irritating toenail and be back with the final decision...meanwhile, talk among yourselves.

Back again, minus a chunk of toenail, but with a full glass of red. Good being a pensioner, can drink on a Sunday evening 😋 Mind you, those doing home officing at present can probably get away with it, too...
So, without any further whatsits, I hereby declare this week's winner - with apologies to all those who haven't won, and to the winner whose reaction will probably be, 'Oh, bugger!'
Sorry about this, but IL has done it again.
Actually, the doll threatened me with such nasty consequences, I didn't dare choose another.
Over to you, Alison, and many thanks to all for contributing.

Actually I said Oh Dearie Me - but thanks Malc 
My shelves are indeed loaded with 'interesting' things Chris - lots and lots to say the least. However I was trying to find my pigs skull today - the sheep and deer are all lined up on a shelf but the piggy has disappeared!
Anyway I'll come up with a challenge tomorrow if I may - I'm hoping inspiration will strike!
