If You Go Down To The Woods....

, , ,

...You'll find me on my hands and knees!... :left:

Get your mind out of the gutter!! :irked: :lol:

I was actually looking for nuts! :rolleyes: It's the annual "Great Nut Hunt" which aims to find areas where dormice are living. The dormouse is an endangered species here so it's quite important for animal geeks like me to go out and poke around in rotting leaf litter looking for nuts with specific holes in :up:. For those that don't know what a dormouse looks like, here is one in hibernation!
Awwwwwwwwwwwwww. :D I actually did my dissertation on dormice, so after spending 6 months crawling around forest floors i'm pretty quick at searching :happy:. Sadly i didn't find any this time :frown:, but i've got my eye on some big hazel trees for next time so fingers crossed!

Anyhoo, its getting slightly more autumn outside now and i :heart: the changing tree colours this time of year, so in between nutting i took some snapatures!
And something that reminded me of Lindsay :D
By the way, i don't mean she reminds me of a horse or..that... oh, you know what i mean!

Also, i came across this old railway bridge and of course the local youth had added their artwork to it... Um...don't look to the right...
Foxy Ladaaay! :lol: Considering what people usually spray on walls, this is pretty good!
But then i turned around and saw this...
What the... :confused: Err yeah. Very nice. :right:

There's A Bogeyman In My Loft....Maybe

,

Time for some randomness ramble...

Lofts. Attics. Space Under The Roof. Sky Parlor... :right: Anyway, i just put my fan up there for the winter and was wondering why they are peceived as scary places. Thats our loft. Is it scary? I find the possiblity of falling off the ladder more freaky then the actual room/space, but my sister hates them...and i mean HATES them. My mum doesn't like going up there either, but she is scared of heights - two big steps would worry her. So not wanting to scale a loft ladder is understandable. With regards to my sis, we once looked at a house and in one of the bedrooms there was the hatchway to the attic. She didn't even like standing in the room with it! The conversation was basically...

Me: "Ooo this room is quite nice"
Her: "Is that...is that the attic hatch?"
Me: "Oh, yeah...but what do you think of-"
Her: "Thats the attic hatch"
Me: "Yes but what-"
Her: *leaves room*

:rolleyes: I think when the light is on up there, she's not so bothered, but i've never seen her actually go up into one. Maybe its cause you have to poke your head up into a dark space at first and i guess if the axe-murderer/bogeyman is in residence he might like to take your head? Although, she might hate attics because, when she was 6 i did tell her that the tapping sound coming from up there was in fact a murdering dolly who was luring our parents up there under the pretence it was a leaky pipe....
I personally do not think this affected her at all. :right:.

Lookie At Ma Trade Cards!

Here is everyone's tradey cards that i've received recently :D
Bianca is clearly on a roll/drugs as i already got her Cartoon themed one and it's a doooozie! Stumps and I have discussed it's potential and we start filming our pilot next week :happy:
Our only concern is that my cartoon face may give childen nightmares...but it was decided that children are annoying anyway so who cares :yes:
And here is Gavin's trade...oh wait...
:rolleyes:

P.S. I find it interesting how 3 of us girlies picked "Love"...take note boys!

A Bear In A BearHat

,


Teddy! Put that hat on properly!

Thank you.

I know, you must be thinking... :confused: what? why?? you're how old and you have a teddybear?! :right:
Well on Kirsty's very-cool-stuff blog we briefly discussed how autumn is the best cause it means you can finally wear hats and scarfs and gloves and all other things woolly :love:. And Kirsty said she'd seen a hat with bear ears...so i said, :yikes: i have a hat with bear ears! So here is my hat with bear ears :yes:. I should probably point out i don't actually wear it that much (i lend it to Teddy when we go for walks :cool:), mainly cause i'm not that crazy about the colour pink (even though thats a "nice pink") and i have a slouchy black knit one that i live in anyway.
I did though wear this to Disney many many years ago last week when i was 15 and everyone wanted to know where i bought my "mouse hat" ...:right: ...er, it's a bear hat!?! Jeeez. :rolleyes:

P.S. I know my walls look kiiinda pink in those pictures, but that are NOT pink...they are like...terracottary-ish. But definitely NOT pink. Just had to clarify the non-pinkness there, thank you.

I Control Radio and Gabi Sends Me Post!

,

So i sent my trade cards today! I got Bianca's the other week and i'll post a piccie-wick of it with the others when they come. But how come no one else ever shows us what they got??? I'm nosey, i need to know what other people sent other people! I'm so intrigued i might explode! I also got a postcard of a ninja frog, who according to the back, is called "Freddie Frog"...

I at first presumed this was from Gavin due to it being posted in the UK and Gavin being the only person who has come to my land recently. But then i got to the end and read....

Who is Gabi? :confused: Maybe its Galoi? No it's definitely Gabi. I don't know a Gabi so my next presumption was that Gavin also calls himself Gabi. I then wondered why a man would call himself Gabi? :left: Weekend name? Just sayin :whistle:...nothing to be ashamed of Gavin *wiggles eyebrows*. I am also intrigued as to what that symbol means? Is that the way people write "From" in Sweden/Ireland?! and Yo'y is Hello?? All so mysteeerious and interesting. But Thankyou! I also like the fact you wrote "UK" under my address even though you sent it in the UK....can never be too safe! :lol:

Some other kinda random thing to mention...recently, cause i've been driving alot, i have been listening to the radio alot. But today i was listening to a CD :sing: and after an hour or so i thought, i'm gonna turn the radio on. So i turn the radio on and the guy's talking and i say to myself "I hope he plays Paramore at some point". So the guy talks for about 10 more seconds, the jingle plays and then...Paramore!! I no joke!! I was :eyes:. Thanks radio man :up:! That has happened before, like when you jokingly predict what song is gonna come on the radio next and then it does...or you think the phones gonna ring then it does...or you think that lamps gonna float across the room and it does. It's weird but very handy! So to summarise, I now control radio. :happy:


P.S. Is it just me or does anyone else really hate that people can put notes on youtube videos! Too much junk in my visual!
