Oh hell no!

Okay… I’ll admit that when I think lawn ornaments I think tacky gnomes and stone deer and little cherub status with faces like small, happy demons! Whatever I pictured though, this wasn’t quiet it! I suppose it certainly would be an item of conversation? And you could tell the kids that if they don’t eat their beans the boogie-gnome will get them! (Just don’t be surprised if the poor tykes ends up with a neurotic condition and you come home to this thing chopped into splinters!)

Well right on then KERBOOM!!!!

This truck was parked right in front of me and required I walk around its massive butt to get to the other side. It’s that whole, “Explosives” part that got to me. As I walked past the truck, which had those warnings on pretty much every open bit of space, I had all these images of it suddenly blowing up, or the driver lighting his ciggie and causing a chain reaction and it blows up, or a car plowing into it and then it blows up, or I just cough and the truck decides it’s been a slow day and blows up anyway! Sometimes an active imagination is a terrible thing indeed!

Meat mosh pit!

My semi-local Fruit and Veg market did it again! First they had decapitated pig’s heads, then vats of ribs, then giant, flesh coloured bones and now they have what I affectionately call, “The chunky meat pit!” I donno, does anyone really find that “mmmh delicious” looking? Looks very unhygienic ! In the first pic you can even see the blood oozing about underneath the meat. I bet a whole bunch of vegetarians are feeling awfully smug about now…

Ol' Leather back

Well if you have to throw your money away, here’s one place it will be safe! Can you see the coins on his back? No idea why people toss them onto him, probably because they see someone else did it and feel the need to be original and copy them! Isn’t he a ferocious beasty though? There’s no flushing this guy down the loo!

Laaaalaaaaalaaaalaaaaaa!

This is on one of the houses I pass on my walk.Every time I see this I get the urge to take a stick and run it rambunctiously down the metallic spines of the gate while letting out a wild ululating sound that Xena – Warrior Princess would be proud of! One day…
