There's little better one can do with 8 hours on a Saturday afternoon than play Game of Thrones/Lord of the Rings/Pirates of the Caribbean/Harry Potter Guess Who in a bar. - Actually there are probably several better things one can do, however put four people obsessed with any and every high fantasy masterpiece churned out by the Hollywood/HBO in a room and see what happens. And no, I felt no shame watching cool adults walk to and fro from the bar whilst I sat pinning a scrap of paper with "Ser Loras Tyrell of Highgarden" scrawled on it to my head.

Another Friday- Another Purple Turtle
 |
| This is Gareth of the Purple Turtle who I haven't seen in 5 years since he got barred for some affray I can't quite remember. The significance of this pose is that I have a photograph of him circa 2006 in the exact same position in the exact same pub. Regrettably that is one of the 15 or so camera films I haven't yet scanned onto my computer :/ |

This guy has just returned from travelling the world for the third time and as such this is the first time he's featured on my blog for about a year. Clearly ecstatic to be home. |
Is that a great blue heron?!
ReplyDeleteInteresting. Just had to consider online as the great blue heron and the grey heron are pretty similar. Apparently a good way to tell them apart is that the great blue has some rusty colouration to its legs and some of its feathers - which this guy does to his legs at least. However, as great blue's are so rare to the UK i'd have to concede that this guy's more likely than not a cleverly disguised grey heron.
