I'm off to Toronto later today (Friday) to meet up with some other FunTrivia types

I am, therefore, posting my Friday pic before heading off to bed. It's another from my walk the other day, and is of a train very like the one I'll be riding across that very level crossing about twelve hours from now.

Let us have some snaps to put in the FT Scrapbook when you get back, just send them to either to my email address or arrange with TW to send to him.

Wow you have all been posting photos like mad while I was away. Have spent the last 2 hours catching up. Once I have uploaded my photos I will let you see where we have been. Glad to be back.

This was the photo I took yesterday then got distracted. The basket is newly planted so I will take another photo once it is established. It looks as if the basket is on the corner of the building but it is in the middle, that is just the reflection in the window of the palms.

Welcome back, lady1. I'm looking forward to your pictures of Namibia.

Some time ago I posted a pic of the pyramid tomb of "Mad Jack" Fuller, a squire of the village of Brightling. This is another of "Mad Jack's" so-called follies, a little classical temple that he built about 1810. Mad Jack's old grounds are still private property, so it has to be snapped with a zoom from a bridleway about a quarter of a mile away. As with the pyramid, there are all sorts of local legends about what Fuller got up to here, but it seems too small to serve as anything but an ornament.

Those who have seen the movie Close Encounters of the 3rd. kind will recognize this photo.





It's Devil's Tower National Monument in Wyoming.

Left on our trip on May 4th, first stop over was in Botswana at a town called Jwaneng. This is a picture of the typical landscape in the area.

Well, I AM inclined to agree with Sue(????!@#$%)
I have resized my picture in Photobucket to webpage size a dozen times. I have edited it here, but it is still big.???

(I see no big pictures). Russian Vine growing across the footpath. A nice plant if there's a large enough area to let it go. We had some at our last address. I had to cut it nearly every day. No wonder it's nicknamed 'Mile-a-Minute'!

In our City Park we have a sculpture garden with works donated by Leo Mol who is a well known Canadian Artist. Here is a sample of his work.

I had a nice day in London today.

Nobody knows the age of this plane tree at the corner of Cheapside and Wood Street, but it's generally reckoned to be more than 200 years old. Some say it was there in Wordsworth's time and inspired his "Reverie of Poor Susan," but Wordsworth only mentions a caged thrush, not a tree.

It certainly adds a touch of class to a corner of town that's falling to the barbarians (the mobile phone shop with the chatspeak name was a gentlemen's shirtmaker's in the days when I worked round the corner). The bit of ground it stands on is part of the former churchyard of St Peter Cheap. The church was destroyed in the Great Fire, but the little St Peter plaque on the railings (inset) was salvaged and has obviously been refurbished recently.

I'm with tellywellies, ren - your picture has been the same size as all the rest since I looked at it very early this morning.

That is so strange, no matter what I do, it looks bigger to me. (and presumably 'her nibs').
I hope to post this one so Madame approves. Here is the Flame of the Forest in the village street. In early summer you see them everywhere here.

Rosie's photo looks fine to me too. She is a lovely creature!

This is the exterior of the establishment where a few of us Ontario FTers met yesterday. (There'll be more in the Scrapbook before long for those who want to see 'em )

Denni's photo is unreal!

We statr shearing tomorrow so many of the photos over the next couple weeks will all be sheep related.

Here is my son's sheep dog, Rolfie. As far as sheep dogs go he's a bit of a wimp but he is a great pet for the lad.

Excuse me , but I did not post the picture until I HAD resized it. I never do. That is why I could not understand why it was showing up as big.

It's going to pour with rain very soon here, so I'll post another pic from London. This is the delightfully restored building that used to be Carreras cigarette factory in Mornington Crescent/Hampstead Road, with a couple of Egyptian-style cats (almost as majestic as Miss Jools) guarding the entrance and Carreras' trade-mark black cats along the façade. Brits of my generation will remember the cat on Carreras products like Craven A.
