Very cute ferret. Can't say I'd want one as a pet though, since a) for "aroma" - they're kinda stinky, b) is for bite and c) can do serious damage to your home
Speaking of odd things on a leash, I'll have to remember to try to get a photo of someone in the neighbourhood who "walks" a tortoise lol.

Santana! So nice to see you posting : )
Are those mini-soaps or are they those minty little melt in your mouth bonbons? Either way, they're very pretty! ("cages" too) ------------------------------------------------------------------
Liz: have never been there, didn't realise it was so big. Thanks for posting it. -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Chavs: I think they're at different times too, otherwise those extra round "drip" type holes would be a different colour ~~ -------------------------------------------------------------------
Haven't had a chance to get any "on foot" pix yet. It's very hot here (relatively, I mean, for us anyway) and everyone is pretty much hiding out in their basements for this week or running off to shopping malls/movie theatres or just sitting in their cars if they have a/c LOL!
It's kind of amusing at work though. The employees who are normally in "starting block mode" meant for track racing 10 minutes before they're due to clock out are suddenly hanging around and actually doing some real work (giggles).

Haha Jackeroo! I love your ideas on what my little cuties are, but unfortunately no, they are not edible goodies, nor are they mini soaps. They're simply little resin objects, which I thought looked pretty cool. I'll probably use some of them on a cardmaking or scrapbooking project at some stage, but in the meantime I'm going to let them decorate my living room in those little cages.

Santana: Ah! thanks for info. Although I'm sure they'll last forever, I'd really hate to dust them though - far too intricate LOL!
Christina: Absolutely gorgeous. Honeysuckles that can over-winter here are significantly less exuberant regarding blossoms.
Satguru: I've enjoyed all of your recent photos, but I think I like the one of the train tracks the best : )

I liked the recent train tracks myself, and the train was a bonus. More so was I couldn't see the view directly but have to hold the camera over the fence and hope for the best, work out which is the right direction to point and take a few in case one turns out good. That was one of my luckiest ones as half the bridges are too high to see over so have to do that each time. This is the line finally removed in 1970 after closing in 1954 with the remains of a station
