mcgovernjon, jimmcgovern15??

Still, excellent photos both of them.


They are twins FCG.  Brilliant keen amatuer photographers, who've joined here just to enter the competition. They've got loads of amazing pictures on flickr just google them.

Don't think they grow any veg or keep chooks though, they've not introduced themselves !

Autmun shows her face.

In my garden the first signs of autumn are the hostas turning a golden yellow and the reappearance of my "lady" amongst the ferns.

He who asks is a fool for five minutes, but he who does not ask remains a fool forever.

Just found these lyrics to a song I sang at school, funnily enough Dan sang it too at the same school although a few years later  :lol:

It really says autumn to me :)

Autumn Days by Estelle White.
Autumn days, when the grass is jewelled
And the silk in a chestnut shell
Jet planes meeting in the air to be refuelled
All these things I love so well
So I mustn't forget
No, I mustn't forget
To say a great big thank you
No, I mustn't forget.

Clouds that look like familiar faces
And winter's moon with frosted rings
Smell of bacon as I fasten up my laces
And the milkman sings.

Whipped-up spray that is rainbow-scattered
And a swallow curving in the sky
Shoes go comfy though they're worn out and they're battered
And the taste of apple pie.

Scent of gardens when the rain's been falling
And a minnow darting down a stream
Picked-up engine that's been stuttering and stalling
And a win for my home team.


Sarah :)

DD - I've got loads of wasps I can send for your spiders  :wink:

So I guess that sending John a Christmas pressie of Arachnaphobia or Eight Legged Freaks wouldn't be appreciated?

Not really, thanks :)

I was in Pet City one day when I overheard an assistant tell another one that the tarantula had escaped again. Trampling pregnant women and small children underfoot, I made a less than dignified exit from the store, incidentally setting a new unofficial land speed record.
