I am turning into Lucy Lastminute when it comes to the scavenger hunt. You'd think a month would be enough notice, wouldn't you, but I realised last night I only had 6 out of the 12 photos organised. Cue the usual last minute scramble!
Thanks as always to Kathy for organising it. Here are my efforts:
Station:
I am fairly confident that I win at life for getting this photo. Best station name EVER. (Helpful translation - it means St Mary's church in the hollow of the white hazel near to the rapid whirlpool of Llantysilio of the red cave)
Nose:
HaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhIloveOscarveryverymuch. Don't you just want to dive into that photo and kiss his little nose? No? Just me?
Beverage:
My two non-alcoholic drinks of choice. Glass of water, black coffee with half a sugar.
Currency:
The average contents of my purse. I hate carrying cash round with me so there are hardly ever any notes in there.
Fragrance:
I wish this could be in smellovision, I really do. They line the sides of a path at work and it smells amazing when you walk along it.
Front page:
Of a 1937 newspaper on display at Plas Newydd.
Good things:
Sunshine, Calippo, new minty coloured pumps, freckly knees. All good things.
Historic:
A May Day feast, Tudor style. Definitely historic.
Nine:
Walking to the pub whilst on a family camping trip in Anglesey last weekend. There are nine people in this photo, honest there are. You just can't quite see some of them properly.
Do you see what I see?
It's the sea of course! And Holyhead Mountain, which I was forced to climb TWICE. Right up to that very top bit! On an exceedingly hot day too.
Small packages:
Self and maman. We are small people. I am looking super quizzical in this photo for some odd reason.
Yellow:
It was this eyeblindingly yellow in real life. No idea what the plant is called, but it's jolly cheerful.
Mmmm...calippo. Made from callipers and hippos according to Eddie Izzard.

I think you've done well there for a Lastminute Lucy! I would kiss Oscar's nose there too, I was going to do a cat nose for this but then, er, didn't really get going! JUNE, I promise! xx
ReplyDeleteIsn't that just the cutest little nose?
ReplyDeleteI almost miss N Wales seeing your lovely pictures... Almost... Loving the look of theTudor Feat too.
ReplyDeleteYou've definitely got the best station name! And I really like the front page one.
ReplyDeleteAwwwww I'd give his nose a kiss, it appears we suffer the same kitty obsession :-)
ReplyDeleteThat station is just brilliant, full marks on that one! I do love Calippos, mmm.
ReplyDeleteFab photos. My thats a mouthful for a station name!

A great selection! I can't believe you have seen the real station of that name! I know the song about it and I have a mug with it on it, but to see the actual station! IMPRESSIVE!!!! That cat's nose is totally adorable!
ReplyDelete(and though quizzical, I see a hint of a smile there! You look pretty!)
Fantastic pictures, I'd kiss Oscars nose too. Those flowers look like "poached egg plant".
ReplyDeleteGreat photos, I enjoyed them all!
ReplyDeleteOh, beyond a shadow of a doubt you win the prize for "station"...I love it.
ReplyDeleteA great group of photos, I like the nose so cute and yellow.
ReplyDeleteLoved how you captured your cat with the nose - I've seen my cat do that one. Did I ever take a photo when he was so cute - no! I didn't think it got hot in the UK. Good photos. I had to do a last minute scramble of photos too.
ReplyDeleteThe pictures are amazing - so full of life). And the station name is a bomb - it's like the longest word i've ever seen)))

What a great selection of photos. I love Oscars nose and the poached egg plant and the name of the station.

Yep, the station name is a winner and the cutest nose yet! Sooooo sweet. This didn't look like a last minute selection - great shots! Ellen x
ReplyDeleteFrom one Alex to another! Loved nose best of all. Brilliant shot!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos :-) Very cute nose, love the lilac - I almost chose lilac too - the smell is just stunning isn't it?
ReplyDeleteI love the first photo, what a mouthful of a name :-)
