Scavenger Hunt Sunday...

Woke up early this morning because of a small hot water bottle of a cat lying next to me so decided to see if I could drag an entry to the Scavenger Hunt together.  Yes I know I shouldn't have left it until the last minute, but don't nag at me ok?  I haven't had time to put a Christmas tree up yet let alone do anything else...

Xmas
Sparkly...
Ended up at some kind of 
get-together for trainee pilots at
Coventry Airport yesterday.
Not sure how that happened!
Anyway, there was a very nice Christmas tree
with little presents under it.

Church gates
Door...
Gates leading to
door of St Mary's Church,
Broughton Astley, Leics.

Decoration
Decorate...
Pretty thing decorating
the Meditation Centre
at Kelmarsh, Northants.

Leaf
Stripes...
Leaf caught in the stripy
planks of a bench at
Bosworth Battlefield.

Holiday Reading...
A Few of my Favourite Things... #1
Books (one from the archives)

Mrs P
... #2
Cats...
Regular readers will
recognise Mrs Pod the venerable tabby cat.

David and new toy
...#3 
David, and also photography!
I can also squeeze another favourite
out of this one as it was taken with my
10-22mm lens which I love as it 
gives such weird and wonderful effects. 
(As evidenced by David's hands
being as big as his head in this shot) :O)

  2. Me, being a cat lover, and having two here on my desk as I type the comment after viewing....I LOVE your kitty photo!

    Oh, and may I add, I love the effect of the sepia/monotones of your photography of some.

    Hope you can find time today to stop by and view my very 1st Scavenger Hunt.

  9. The posts you scramble to throw together at the last minute are so much better than the ones I toil over for days!! Yet I think if I adopted your "last minute" method, they'd be unspeakably awful. :-)

    I enjoyed the festive bling of the two tree ornament photos, and the natural simplicity of the leaf. But all the photos are wonderful!

  11. You did a wonderful job for throwing this together : ) after your water bottle woke you up. I love kitties. Mine do that too. I tell them to go away and let me sleep for another thirty minutes. They don't listen : ). LOVE your lens. Love your hubby shot. So sweet. Gorgeous pictures. Wishing you the merriest of holidays. Love. Becky

I get many more views on my posts than comments, so please if you drop by, stop and say hello. Otherwise I'll start getting paranoid and neurotic, and worry that nobody likes me... sniff sniff...
