This isn't friends only, though friends only posts are not out of the question. It's a gratuitous attempt to... it's just gratuitous. Friend, tell me I'm a sad bastard, de-friend, whatever. Comment and I'll return the favour.

In the interest of channeling some sort of Rolf Harris-Alan Titchmarsh vibe (although why the hell I would actually want to do that is probably best left unexplored...), a pictorial journey of discovery from my aunt's garden.



( Can you tell what it is yet?Collapse )

Having an overgrown untidy mess wilderness for a back garden has it's advantages... I spent an hour and a half picking blackberries this morning... there's loads, and they taste gorgeous and IHGFGHBQIADH I think I'm going to make schnapps with them because I can't think what else to do with them, other than make jam, which is... erm, labour intensive... And I don't have much sugar in the house. Not that I have several litres of vodka, either, but... erm... I don't have a jam pan here. And schnapps would be a nicer thing to give to people for Christmas.

And I got an apple from one of the trees! The neighbours were looking at me, I was stood at the bottom of the garden waving a long broken off tree branch in the air trying to snag one off the tree.

Erm. Considering my track record for watching a whole anime I might be getting ahead of myself, but this list?

Camping = I smell like a bonfire and I am le tired.

So I shall relive my childhood, and watch My Little Pony and The Elm-Chanted Forest, the amount of 80's animation tempered somewhat by watching Valerie and Her Week of Wonders... Which is in no way related to my childhood, but... is a continuation along a fantasy theme... or something. gulp
