10 minutes down the road i had seen a can of coke with a black straw in and nearby two baby cans of coke.

picture of a house

i saw this photo down a hole today. it was of a building and was printed on a piece of A4 so wouldn’t have counted for my collection. But interesting never-the-less.

secure fridge

one of the problems of an outdoor fridge is that of security.
the owner of the fridge has addressed this issue by applying ‘carpet tape’ to the door thus rendering it, essentially, unopenable

found photos

a colleague of mine found these photos and an intriguing letter in her loft. the photos were found in opposite loft spaces and the letter was attached to one of them.
they are not added to main collection as they weren’t really found in public. they have instead been returned to the loft space where they will lie in darkness. the loft becomes a fossil to the previous inhabitants.

when she moves out of the house she has promised to add her own photo to the pile to keep the tradition rolling.

this was a pile next to BT Tower in central london

boot

one boot is better than none, but not as good as two. there is a natural order. maybe i should take pictures of ‘no boots’ whenever i don’t see any anywhere. could be a rather large collection of pictures.
i shall ponder this further before committing to such an immense task
