anzac day closing strategy
this dates these pictures which were taken on anzac day when the shops were closed. mostly for more than 10 minutes

shifting a piano
here are three men having trouble with a piano. these pianos have been popping up all over london and are jolly good.
tombola
classic tombola prizes
Ascension of Polkadots on the Trees
i don’t think this cleaning vehicle was part of the art (that rhymes) but it was jolly good none-the-less-the-same
it’s part of this exhibition which i’d love to see. so i probably will
here are two more nearly but not quite the same shots of the same thing
these are not horses. i think.
now, i don’t know much about animals (although i did put a dead hedgehog in our dustbin last night), however, even i know these aren’t horses.
do would you trust the author to tell you how to look after them ?
“your horse is quite short isn’t it?”
eels
this chap just caught an eel as i walked past him yesterday morning
As a result i’ve had the mighty boosh’s eels in my head all day long (youtube video contains a biological word some might find distasteful, but worth a listen!)
“elements of the past and the future combining to make something not quite as good as either”.
a perfectly potty choir
this choir sang at one of the village fayres we went to over the weekend. the leader of the band was particularly amusing to watch
redacted
everyone’s doing black lined redacting these days
caff-werk
i went to the marvellous breakfast club last friday thanks to russell reminding me it was on. jolly good chat, although i feared for retinas sitting opposite these three t-shirts and the yellow wall.
it’s interest to note your modern fashionable man has wires coming out of his shoulders.
man hair drying his car
kezia spotted this curiousity
another village fete
yesterday we went to another village fete. this was one another dramatic one with people flying in the air (note the emergency ambulance in the background)
there was blatant disregard for the rules by this lady or middling years who was ignoring the instructions that this was for boys aged 3-10 years only
clouds were gathering but the rain didn’t drop this time
and how’s this for a classic tombola prize. it’s not quite a goldfish, but it is a luxury roller blind. you knew it was going to be a winning stall when they proclaim that every number is a winner !
wargrave festival
yesterday was wargrave festival
we ended up sitting for nearly an hour in the road in wargrave as we waited for very late procession to come through the village.
it was worth the wait though to see the medieval themed procession
they even had medieval bagpipers
this car was the least well dressed thing in the parade. a cardboard cut out horse head stuck on a window screen does not make a horse. although it was enough to get their advert on this blog
we even managed to find some of the props abandoned behind the local train station
