This gull with a deformed right foot enjoyed our Gregg's sausage roll every bit as much as we did.

Football

20th September 2009

-

I was hoping this picture would accompany a post about a City win over their Manchester rivals United yesterday. Unfortunately for the blue half of the city a Michael Owen goal deep into injury time gave the Reds a 4-3 victory. All in all it was a pretty bad weekend for my football teams with Rangers only managing a goalless draw at Kilmarnock and more importantly Irvine_Meadow losing 2-1 away to Beith.

Snail

19th September 2009

-

It took ages to get a decent photo of this little creature which was slithering around my wheelie bin. Being a perfectly patient model we eventually got there and 'Amy' as it has been christened was allowed on it's away to no doubt help destroy all the plants in my back garden :)

Puppy

11th September

----------------

This little puppy was photographed playing around in the garden next door.

Xtreme Pringles

10th September

-----------------

A carton of the new Xtreme Fiery Wasabi Pringles. The words Xtreme and Fiery give the impression that this snack is going to be Hot, Hot, Hot but the senastion never even reaches smoldering point. Very disappointing but quite a nice packaging to photograph.
