  • Ian Dalziel,

    I'll continue, um...
    ...if we are then, in that zone
    of the continuum of
    "bands ending in ...ones"

    I give you
    <drum roll>
    the greatest
    rock 'n' roll band
    in The Octagon,
    if not The World
    <drum roll>
    <pause>

    - the stones

    Speaking of which, this happend.

    Burning Man 2013

    It would seem that going there and taking a bad photo are mutually exclusive. I'd like to have been there, but not sure I actually want to go.

    Have often thought the same. Those are stunning photos.

    The man's got form.
    I hear an echo of his previous aspersion cast - nay hurled! - on pukeko.

    Reflecting pukeko in more positive light –
    pliers of many a hard-working swim across the river,
    an image of time’s two-headed arrow?

    throw back…

    I hear an echo of…

    …ever evolving pukekos,
    just like Christchurch, that’s me…
    (they’re on my coat as well)

    throw away…
    …and as we all know every pun that exists,
    stems from those few protopun particles spun off
    from the Big Bang, it’s been a bountiful bingo bag of
    casual connections and causality since then, running,
    running from the unchallengeable riposte.

    though I think you have ended up with the lion's share of that bingo bag!

    and watch out for those pukekos on your coat, that'll make quite a mess : ) (Though I like the way the pukekos are so much bigger than the lone kiwi)

    And a splendid coat it is too, long may it remain in this house!

    These protoplums against the late afternoon sky yesterday – an attempted capture of the casual connection to that other Chris W’s sky I suggested a few pages back – but a casualty of the difficult light and shade of the tall storey.

    Still, to step back a bit, it's a lead to the plumb-lazy idea that this wholly mackerel sky is a bountiful bingo bag of fluffy dumplings fleeing the Big Bang of protoplums.

    Spring window display

    Yeah. No. I never understood why pyrophylactics didn't take off, either...

    pyrophylactics

    Oh, that's what it was. I was thinking a bunch of kids had been pied pipered off to some lava tube deep beneath the slopes of Rangitoto

    Lovely stuff team, I too have spring vegies Nora, last of the old carrots but a self seeded tomato that has been growing all winter outside, and swift potatoes chitting nicely

    Spring blackbird in my feijoa tree ...

    a wary carer
    keeping half an eye on me,
    as she practises nesttopism,
    expecting great things for her chicks' careers,
    not merely counting them before they're hatched.

    The caption conjures up a different image to the intriguing pic. Sorry; I have a filthy mind.

    Sunrise this morning, the ducks already had the score on the water as of today –
    3 – 1, or -1 depending on how you look at it.
