That's Teela Brown ... she's come a long way ... a beautiful, friendly little cat she has turned out to be The black cat is Mischief; belongs to a a woman up the street. Nothing left in the food dish for him after the coons have been around. Coons are delicate eaters, but they can sure put away a lot of groceries.

I really love the street scene - that just how I would imagine an Italian street would be

Today in Pictures, it had stopped raining as we set off and stayed fine until we were driving back.

1. Its always a let down after the big event.
2. Beech nuts................................space left for innuendoes.
3. Sticky Willie weed............I like that word......sticky, with cuckoo spit and a fly underneath, not sure what he is doing,(cuckoo spit is the common name for the housing containing the frog hopper bug until it matures)
4. The path from The Woodlands to Bell Lane. The water pipeline is off to the right.
5. Same path a bit further down.
6. Donkeys in the field to the front of Clayton Hall.
7. Clayton Hall, or as much is as visible from this angle.
8. This short path is all that remains of the priests walk that terminates at St Mary's Burial Ground.

And for those of you who can't get enough of coons, mom brought the kids over for a meal ... actually, it was more like a food fight And to relieve the monotony of too many coons, there's Teela Brown ... again.

today i have been to Southport.
It was only a fleeting visit......to test out the Lumix FZ72.
I am sure you will tell me what you think of my offerings.
1) Coffee Al Fresco in Leafy Lord Street.
2) Help me somebody....I think my belly button has fallen off.
3) This is one of the rides in Pleasureland......I took the shot from the far end of the pier.
4) Another long range shot.
5) Leafy Lord Street.
6) I know this is not so clear.....but it looks like a big dipper to me.......I took this shot from the very end of the pier at maximum zoom.
Southport doesn't have a big dipper....but Blackpool does......surely it can't be the big dipper at Blackpool.....can it?
I await your replies.

[Gremlin]

Yes it is the big dipper at Blackpool, it's easy to see the tower also from Southport.
I think I put some photos I took at Southport on the site last year and one had a good clear shot of the tower.
