Christmas Market

 

Yes, before the modern "Christmas Market" industry with it's £10 coffees and £20 mulled wine, the real Christmas Markets were in the Middle East, and involved farting donkeys infusing mango stalls with a special odour. 

And I don't mean Myrrh.

Bonus - 

Cigarette and Seaweed

 

Perfect pairing for a trip to the seaside.

I dislike them both.

Actually seaweed is OK, but the smell of rotting seaweed. Urgh.

Bonus - 

Friday

"Your Lupins or Your Life!"

 

Actually, these might be Hollyhocks. 

Or Delphiniums. Or...I dunno. I'm not much of a gardener.

But the title / quote - I do know that. Monty Python and the highwayman Dennis Moore.

Bonus - 

The Orange Man Go Jail

Weir Meet Again

 

This was a very dark slide. Actually, a VERY dark slide. So, it too a fair bit of image manipulation to extract an identifiable images.

Sure, if the photographer kept this slide, the image must have some importance.

Alas, not.

Bonus - Dealing with a murderer via Immurement.

Marjorie - Cougar on the Prowl

 Since the death of her third husband ( wouldn't eat his mushrooms, if you know that story )  Majorie Furness has been stalking the fleshpots of Portugal for some "Fresh Meat".

Here she is, awaiting the arrival of the Lithuanian Under 21 Water Polo team for their winter training camp.  Run Lads !

Bonus - There are some inventions that arrive at the right time. Some whose time is not yet here. And some.... well, I doubt that there's been a worse sounding idea than The Boomerang Grenade.
