SEPARATE HOLLINGSDAYS AND MAY PHOTO SCAVENGER HUNT

Hiya all,


Firstly I wish to beg your pardons about me not being around much...... you see it has been a NUTS-SO last couple weeks in my patch, and just yesterday my peeps and I got back from our separate hollingdays! I will post all about it on my bloggie and mum is going to cover their hollingday on her bloggie (see my sidebar), but just to give you a TASTE..... here is where I was ....

Ocean

And about 400 kilometres away..... my peeps went here:

River
On one of these:


Needless to say that we all had a great time...... but there was no blogging ability for quite a few days! So as soon as I finish helping mum unpack our bags..... I'll be up and running around to your blogs soon!!


Now - to our monthly business: (and time for me to score my mum's photo efforts!)




This Hunt is brought to us by the blog: Postcards from the P.P. and you are all free to join in if you wish! Here goes:


GOOD THINGS
My mum swears there are LOTS of Good Things available for purchase at discount variety stores...... she loves them! 


SMALL PACKAGES
Lucky I made it into this picture with these small packages!


FRAGRANCE
Mum's flowers from her garden have Fragrance, and these little bottles have stronger Fragrance that makes me screw up my nose....I avoid the "top note" (keep away from your peep for about 15-20 mins after you see them spraying this stuffs on!)


STATION
Once upon a time - when my mum still worked.... she used to go to this bus station to catch the bus into the CBD of Adelaide. She's too lazy to work now!!!BOL!


NOSE
This is MY nose.


FRONT PAGE
This is when I made it to the Front Page of VOGUE. I hope you all got this issue????


NINE
I found a number Nine on this letterbox during one of my walks.


BEVERAGE
My peeps drink this stuff called "red wine". I think it smells kinda funky!


CURRENCY
My dad dad collects coins in this big burgundy book. I was checking them out..... but concluded that they are not edibles!


HISTORIC
This is me checking out some house plots in a new housing development near my house. Directly behind me,  near the centre of the picture,  you will see a stone chimney - this is one of two remaining historic buildings from the Cornish Settlers who started mining copper from the hills here some 160 years ago. The site is State Heritage Listed.


YELLOW
More action regarding housing development..... we came across this yellow machine digger thingy on one of my walks. Mum is crushed because it is carving up land which used to have a big old Olive Tree where she picked her bucket of olives from last season, and had her first go at preserving them in little jars. Now it's gonna have a house on it.


DO YOU SEE WHAT I SEE?
Here I am lookin' at a little bird, we call sparrows, which landed on the rim of the ceramic pot outside. The sparrow is safe because I am on the inside.

So there it is....another month flown by - and mum gets 10 / 12 as her score for the scavenger hunt pics that have ME in them! Very respectable Ma!!!!

Remember to check back with me in a couple days so I can tell you all about my Hollingday..... and show a couple pictures as well. You will have to look at mum's blog to hear all about their hollingday adventure - that should be ready in a day or so too!

Take care furiends, Tail Wuggles, Rubie xxx
