Meet Dudley. Dudley is a My Pet Monster. He belongs to daughter No2. He was part of her ( if I remember rightly) ninth Christmas. She had her heart set on him and so Santa did not disappoint her. He did get some funny looks and strange comments when he went into hospital with her for one of her many stays. We found him in the loft last week and so returned him to his rightful owner. He has long ago lost his handcuffs.
as an extra picture here is said daughter with Dudley.
Monday
Went for a walk somewhere different, up the Cambusdoon Estate. This is the remains of a large posh house that has had many uses over the years before it fell into disrepair. Also added another cache to my list today.
Tuesday
The weather here has been beautiful again all week, far to nice to be staying in in an evening as so we went for a walk round the fishery. Was playing with the zoom on my camera and got some good pictures of some historic buildings on the horizon but loved the way this cloud looked like a bird. Maybe I would not pass a blot test......lol
Wednesday
Bye bye bathroom door. Never been keen on having a bathroom door with glass at the top especially when my bathroom is directly opposite the front door. So finally this week we replaced it. DH cut this one in half so it would fit in the car to go to the dump.
Thursday
Fifi had too much homework to do to come over to stay, she has been putting it off for nearly a month now and is realising deadlines are easier met if you do the project ongoing, a valuable lesson in better time management. So it was just Bob, which he actually loves, and we took Granddad with us and went walking up a local country estate. We introduced Granddad to Bob's world of tigers, wolves, crocodiles and Percy Jackson monsters.
Friday
A random white daffodil, though I am sure they have another name.
Saturday
Fifi loves making things and one of the things she got for Christmas was a plate making set, and so myself and her other Gran got plates made. It is lovely when they are old enough to do these things at random for you.
Erm Mother, you cut the door in half so it would fit in the car whole?! That's a If I have come through here again statement lol! Love daughter number 2!
ReplyDeleteoooppppssss....sorted......thanks
DeleteLove Tuesday's photo, what a gorgeous view!! looks like you've had a productive week xx
ReplyDeletethe fishery does offer some good views, and at times great reflections
DeleteOoh that cloud does look like a bird! Lovely white daffoldil shot too Elaine! Awe to the pet monster!
ReplyDeletethank you, glad it is not just me that can see a bird.
DeleteThat cloud is amazing! When I was little my mum always called the yellow ones daffodils and the white narcissi but aren't they all narcissi?! I'm stumped now! Still, very pretty :)
ReplyDeletemakes two of us that are stumped about what it is, but it was prety
DeleteLoving the beautiful outdoor shots. The weather has been lovely hasn't it. I did smile when I saw the first picture of My Pet Monster, my sister had one when we were little and she loved it! x #project365
ReplyDeleteI am sure a lot of people had my pet monsters back on the day, the grotesque things were very popular
DeleteLove all the outdoor fun, not so sure about Dudley but he looks very much loved.
ReplyDeleteI was never sure about Dudley either, hard ugly plastic.
DeleteI've never seen a Dudley before, he's quite interesting looking. I think I'd be less than keen on a half glass bathroom door too!
ReplyDeleteProbably a bit before your time, Dudley is now 24 years old.....scary stuff and he is still in great nick.
DeleteYour geocaching does take you to explore some beautiful places. Dudley is a strange looking creature isn't he?
ReplyDeletehe certainly is Erica. Have to say geocaching takes us to many places we would never have visited without it.
Deletesorry it has taken me all week to get here!!!
ReplyDeletei loved hearing the story about Dudley and the old photo of your daughter holding him :)
that lake and sky looks so tranquil - perfect for an evening stroll. i never understand why bathrooms doors would have so much glass in them either!!! good riddance to it lol x
