Of course, minus any frantic activity by the pair of them. <br /><br />I'll send you pair of my old spectacles :) <br /><br />And yep, sunny and almost warm up here in Leek, Staffordshire.<br /><br />Enjoy the weekend, Teresa.<br /><br />Gary :) x klahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-21752035207237368772016-05-06T09:39:30.464+01:002016-05-06T09:39:30.464+01:00That made me laugh, Joanna and I think the two thi...That made me laugh, Joanna and I think the two things can look very alike. My husband kept talking about the ostriches he could see in a field near here and I tutted and said he was daft and from what I'd seen through the bushes, they were cows - then I saw them properly myself.

I hope they can soon be reunited. <br />I can well understand your amazement at the possible sighting of a tall, small-headed man because I once drove past an ostrich, only to realise as I moved closer it was the back view of a cow. It's uncanny how alike the two sights are...or maybe I need the optician too...xxxJoannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10346863303904973315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-37950196014898855872016-05-06T09:31:55.974+01:002016-05-06T09:31:55.974+01:00It's going to be some reunion, Carol :-) xxIt's going to be some reunion, Carol :-) xxTeresa Ashbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350697922935549188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-25428940461500088462016-05-05T20:40:22.074+01:002016-05-05T20:40:22.074+01:00I'm sure Dusty will be overjoyed to see Poppy ...I'm sure Dusty will be overjoyed to see Poppy when they eventually get together, Teresa, and will probably tire each other out. :-)<br /><br />Strange what we think we're seeing when it's really just an optical illusion.Carolbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05578076528292643928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-79046327608789488772016-05-05T16:49:04.913+01:002016-05-05T16:49:04.913+01:00It was so funny, I went from thinking we'd bee...It was so funny, I went from thinking we'd been invaded by pin-headed aliens to thinking how cute the little boy looked riding on his dad's back in a matter of moments :-) xxTeresa Ashbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15350697922935549188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-41965527675884622112016-05-05T15:58:15.866+01:002016-05-05T15:58:15.866+01:00Crying with laughter at your close encounter with ...Crying with laughter at your close encounter with the curious man!Julia Thorleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00485301135194085398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7328996877751363067.post-86222279852501157802016-05-05T11:51:54.124+01:002016-05-05T11:51:54.124+01:00I hope the wind drops soon, Rosemary.
