I haven't been taking many photos these last few months, but here are some of the few I did snap. Make the most of them becasue my camera seems to have given up its hold on life and no amount of persuading can get it to work - believe me, I've tried.
Oviedo city council opt for the cheapest solution - Woody Allen, now completely devoid of glasses.
March skies and Redes mountains
March snow
Fruit from the garden. The berries and plums have all been scoffed and I'm about to make a start on the pears.
Feeding greedy sheep though the garden fence.
A neighbour's lambs
A different neighbour's donkey and a two-week old... erm, what's the word for a baby donkey? Donkette?
Still curious

Gorgeous photos. All of them...(& isn't that lamb adorable?)
Wonderful, wonderful pictures! I think a donkette is a 'jack' if it's a little boy and a 'jenny' if it's a little girl.
Those lambs are lovely too and that fruit! I have one manky banana left and must do some shopping!
Brilliant photos of my friends.
Oh Raelha,
I've not been homesick since I've been out of the country, but how can photos of Spain and your cats make me miss NZ and my cat so much?
Isn't life funny though. I bought the Juno sountrack the other day, and was so taken with a couple of songs from a group I'd never heard of before that I scouted some of their music on the internet. No one else I know had heard of them either. I've decided I quite like them, and having made that decision I come onto your block to see Belle & Sebastian listed here. !!!
Just came back to say: doesn't Woody Allen look a right old git?
Hee hee Lorenzo, well put. Is your manky banana from Netto?
jls, I've not seen Juno yet, I keep hearing good things about it so it'll have to go on my 'to see' list. It must be good if it's classy enough to have B&S on the soundtrack. I'm sorry to make you feel homesick. But it's only 3 months right? You'll be pleased for the experience in the end. It's easy to say that, I know how I'd feel to be without my cats for that long. A two-week holiday is bad enough!
Melody, yes, I love the lamb, you can almost hear it calling.
Scaredy, thank you, the ladies all say hello. Even Mahou, so you're doing very well.
Of course my manky banana came from Netto! I left it and eventually Peter ate it. I now have some firm, hard, yellow/green ones. From Netto! Also some superb black grapes and a cauliflower! Just thought you would like to know!
There was a gory baby dead hedgehog on the lawn this morning. Cats don't attack them, do they?
The more I look at old man Allen the more I dislike him.
The more I look at your kits the more I love them!
Aww...that lamb looks a lot like Lovey. Sheep are so adorable. And the cats too, especially where grouchy old Mahou is grooming Elbi. Seems like a typical shot of Beeps. If she were a hobbit in the Shire (I almost types Shite, hehe) she'd be Bilbo and wandering all over Middle Earth exploring, I think.
I love the donkeys as well. I thought of a term for a small donkey: Assette. :)
The fruit looks scrum and in those bowls looks like your preparing to paint a still life. I want to reach inside the monitor and each some. In, fact I just might do...
And the very last thing I've got to say about this post is,
YOU SAID 'WOODY' =)
(p.s. At least his mum didn't name him Stiffy Allen!)
ahem...

bloody mind-hand connection.
Meta, mind-hand connection or the same disposable thumb problem as before?
Mahou is actually snuggling, she loves to have her head covered. And yes, Beeply is a big explorer.
Heehee, I like assette very much.
Hmmm, is this an American obsession with wood? It doesn´t sound that bad to my ear. it brings to mind a snippet of an interview I saw. Frank Skinner (Black country comedian) was interviewing Kenny Rogers, who apparently has a chain of restaurants called ´Kenny Rogers´ Roasters´. Skinner asked him if he´heard of the verb to roger before. Crude, but funny.
I ate at a Kenny Roger's Roasters! It was good too. But the franchise went out of business years ago.
Yeah, I've heard "she looks like she needs a good rogering" and many similar comments before, but only by Brits.
One of the funnier things I've heard was when a fairly famous baseball pitcher here named Randy Johnson was on a talkshow with a Scottish host (I believe... it was quite awhile ago), and this athlete, who is 6'10" by the way, reaches out his hand in greeting and says, "Hi there. Randy Johnson." The host with perfect timing look down as if at his trousers and said, "why yes, I think it is!"
The humor didn't get too much recognition, the audience being American, but some people got it.
Well, it's a good thing there is colorful slang on both sides of the Pacific. I still haven't found a better word than "chubby", which someone used some years ago and it quickly replaced woody, hard-on, etc. Now with the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) being switched on at CERN near Geneva, I've already begun hearing "large hard-on collider" jokes.
If I ever stop finding stiffies and boobs (flesh pillows) funny, just shoot me. I don't want to grow up if that means that juvenile humor is no longer funny.
OK, I'll pop you. I sincerely doubt that you will though.
lol, I'd not heard the LHD jokes. How're they doing since it's had to be stopped for the next year or so?
