May Photo Scavenger Hunt




Here is my selection for May.





Good things
There's always lots of good things going on at Covent Garden



Small packages

Reminds me of my favourite film "The Sound of Music"
...brown paper packages tied up with string...




Fragrance

The mere whiff of this bottle of Youth Dew by Estee Lauder always takes me
straight back to my wedding day - even now just taking this photo




Station
This is the little station half way along Southend Pier



Nose

I just love the nose on my lion bookend which so reminds me of
Charlie one of our lovely, sadly departed cats



Front Page
Congratulations Ma'am




Nine
Keeping to the 'Jubilee'  theme




Beverage
A lovely refreshing cup of Earl Grey




Currency
Does this Monopoly money count?
This is from the original box that we used to play with as children - many years ago!





Historic
Where else but Windsor Castle?




Yellow
The gorgeous Broom bush in my garden




Do you see what I see?
Fishing with eldest grandson - the one that 'didn't' get away!!


I hope you've enjoyed my selection and many thanks again to Kathy for arranging this challenge.


Bye for now x

  10. I like your lion and I'm sure Monopoly money is fine for currency. Shame we can't use it in real life.

  13. Hi, I just found your warm and friendly blog. I too am a wife, mother and grandmother. I recently retired and started blogging about my many interests. The thing that I enjoy the most is meeting new people and making friends with other like minded women from around the world. Thank you for sharing your little adventure. Blogging may be the only way I will ever travel abroad. I am your newest follower. Please accept my warm invitation to visit and hopefully to decide to follow me, too. Connie :)
