Must be a Water Spaniel

 

OK, technically, it isn't.

The English Water Spaniel died out in the 1920s-ish.

But that apparent small sand island is a doggo of some sort. The slide says "udo swimming at Constantine Bay, 1986", so ... yeah.

Bonus - 

Afternoon Tea...in the Continental Style.

 

"May 1965" was all that was on this slide, and there's an air of continental style in the flowers and umbrella.

But that building looks familiar. It looks very much like Southport Town Hall.

And May ?  They seem rather wrapped up for warmth for that month.

Bonus ; 

Another Post Box

 

People make slides of the oddest things, but you know that. 

Bonus - 

High-Rise Ennui

 

Today sees a return to normality. 

And in fact, a return to Tuesday Tedium.

Its especially tedious, with no info at all.

It might be "Brisgi" high-rise in the Kappelerhof area of Baden, but frankly, it's not worth the bother to check.

So, I've let the artistic filters do their stuff, to produce image B.

Bonus - 

An oldie, but a goodie.

Easter Bonnets Ahoy

 

Easter Monday, and the Gang of Fun are showing off their Easter Bonnets.

Just before abusing the waiter, and refusing to tip, no doubt.

Bonus - 

I call this lamb "Korma"

 

"Don't get too attached to them, honey. You're not going to see them again."
"Well, not until Sunday Dinner next week."

Bonus - Donald J Trump - what an odious piece of shit. 

Bonus 2 - 

Springtime

 

Easter weekend, so here's a lovely Cherry Blossom display for your enjoyment

Bonus - 

You Are Being Silently Judged

 

Good Friday, but I'm not following the usual "Jesus Nailed to a Cross" narrative.

Instead, this august group of blokes. Reading the background foundation stone, this might be the Rajkumari Amrit Kaur College of Nursing (RAKCON), which is nice.

Bonus - Orkney Tesco supermarket orders 38,000 bananas by mistake    

Where In The World Quiz - Number 447

 

It's a tricky one this time.  Is it

A.  Uulan Bator, Outer Mongolia

B. Port Stanley, Falkland Islands

C. Sea of Tranquillity, Moon

D. TOWER BRIDGE, LONDON.

...and if you need a clue, this is it as it looks now.

Bonus - 

Mathilda and her Easter Tree,

 

That's what was written on the slide, and indeed a quick bit of research reveals that on the state of Wyoming, the practise amongst the ethnic Albanians was for decorative trees to be put out for Easter.

The differed from the more normal Christmas Tree was that the Easter Tree featured no star at the top (the star being an Islamic symbol) and the sweet treats on the branches were based upon mutton and cardamon. 

Bonus - If this appeals to you, you'd better be quick. It's only available today.

A Hill, in the distance.

 

Tedious Tuesday returns, and it's a scenic one.

A sharp peak on the horizon. No info for it.

The shape reminds me of Mount Kenya, but honestly ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Bonus : Fact Check: Former UK PM Liz Truss Did NOT Say That 'Underground Transgender Mafia' May Be Responsible For KitKat Chocolate Heist

The Disappearing Road

 

Sometime a slide attracts me just because it's gorgeous. 

Like this one, marked only as "Old Creek".  To me, it looks like Arizona...and sure enough, there's an Oak Creek, near to Sedona.  Anyone recognise this road? (That might be Capitol Butte on the horizon.)

Bonus -  A tail-less Alligator. 

The background makes me think of Soviet Russia

 

... but actually, I believe that it is the Congress and Exhibition Building for the 6th World Congress of the I.U.A. (International Union of Architects),South Bank, London in 1961.
