    Somebody’s been at work on this.

    That car could be better camouflaged.

    Repotting an adenium

    looks like Justin Atoll, patron saint of
    Desert Island cartoons, reporting in
    ...but no it's the geographical inverse.

    a desert rose rises,
    the hand of clod,
    roots lit briefly
    sun-limned limbics
    twixt eave and dusk's
    deep promise of dawn

    grow you good thing!

    ;- )

    *with a splash of G&S.

    Nice one Ian. The grower is very proud of her micro palm tree. The picture was not quite a still life, but such a bizarre perspective I thought to show it anyway.


    A better still life: graft made to rescue a chrysalis that formed the washing line.

  • JacksonP,

    I was just thinking, there might be people on here who haven't seen this 9 minute version of Country Feedback featuring Neil Young.

    This will not stand!

    Happy long weekend.

    Inside Silo Six

    Nice, Leggs…


    Chair Evolution*
    Invertebrate and Vertebrate

    Note how the invertebrate still retains
    the basic cell structure with four pseudopods
    forming an exoskeleton and legs.

    While the more advanced and ambitious
    invertebrate has developed arms and ribs,
    to relieve the stresses of lateral forces,
    not just the constant drag of gravity.

    Back to the Furniture, pt II…
    This same constant gravity ultimately lead to marginalisation of related mega-furniture, such as the ottoman through to the multi-celled colony ‘beanbags’, Four-poster beds and other canopy dwellers were whittled away, the freakish bladder based ‘Waterbeds’ and sundry ‘Tall boys’ virtually vanished, replaced by Lazy boys and flat-pack kitsets – Jekyll and formaldehyde…

    Ha!

    Perhaps this is the corresponding evolutionary diagram? With a special offer for Ron?

    Socket to me…

    the corresponding evolutionary diagram…

    …definitely a ‘phase’ it’s going through.

    Looks very ‘Cling-on’, don’t ya think?…
    or some other Ivy League language…


    Heisenberg! Full ahead!
    Offer Ron,
    or not, for in fact
    it may well be an Amionornot
    - one of the state-switching cephalopoda
    - related to the I. Really Ammonoid perhaps?
    But not so hugely screwed up,
    or extinct…

    Pictures of the infamous 拆/chāi character, that appears ominously on buildings slated for demolition. Ominously, because sometimes there can be a long, long time between appearance of the 拆 and demolition, even years. It includes pictures of signs saying "拆哪(chāi nǎ, demolish where)?China" Here, "Chai Revolution" could be a good name for the movement tearing the historic hearts out of Chinese towns and cities. Then again, Ian could've been referring to momentous shifts in tea consumption habits...
