Up in the clouds.



There was I, enjoying an early evening glass of plonk, with a few anchovy-stuffed olives, when from behind the Privet bush came George 111.


There he is. It is him; isn't it!

I can see him. Privet?? A noxious weed here.

Cro Magnon said...

A pool screen here!

Sue said...

Yep, there he is!

Flying over Lumberjack; just saying 'Hi'.

You never know who'll turn up.

A fair call on the cloud. Privet is a pest species here, but I am not sure if it has been declared a noxious weed.

Cro Magnon said...

It's very useful for hedging, and barriers against prying eyes. I prefer the small leafed variety.

George is lovely but, a little too nosey; isn't he!

We have beautiful privet hedges in England. I have one.

Cro Magnon said...

They make very dense, impenetrable, hedging. A UK favourite.

The scent of flowering privet sends me straight back to the long hot summers of childhood. It doesn’t grow here, the native hedging is fuchsia.

Yes, I love looking for things in clouds.... I was a member of the CAS... the Cloud Appreciation Society.

Not familiar with George's profile in later years (he was actually rather good looking before the chin took over) I'd have probably said "Rumpole of the Bailey".

I hope that you offered him a drink!

Privet hedges used to give me terrible hayfever.

Well I can see George too. Just never been introduced

Cro Magnon said...

Peeping George.

Cro Magnon said...

I love it too. We've recently seen a map of the UK, and a monkey.

Cro Magnon said...

There is a vague resemblance.

Cro Magnon said...

He disappeared too quickly.

Cro Magnon said...

Good; glad it's not just me.

The Weaver of Grass said...

Is he sticking his tongue out or am I reading him wrong?

Cro Magnon said...

He is; he was well known for it!

I can see three faces !!! I see faces in everything ..... I always thought it was something spooky about me but I read the other day that we see faces in all sorts of things because we are so used to seeing faces all the time in our everyday life that we expect to see them ( something like that !!! ) XXXX

Tom Stephenson said...

George the Third's arse, maybe.

Cro Magnon said...

I'm sure that's right; just one or two elements of someone's face and there they are.

Cro Magnon said...

That too.

They were dopplegangers.
