Pineapple, tree
Look I found this pineapple tree in Houston!
It's not really a Pineapple tree look at this site to see what pineapple plants really look like.

Houston, Texas
Hello everyone, I'm in Houston for a spot of sun. Needed to re-charge the old battery. I think I'll have a dip in this pool later, but just for now I need a bit of a sun bath just to start the day in a good way. Thanks to Iain and family for inviting me to visit.

Stumpy
Stumpy
Just tried to squeeze in this hole to see if it could be a nice dry place for a snooze. But would you have guessed it! The hole was already taken. A little nest of squirrels were in there and they were not pleased to see me! Squirrels never are! That's just how it is I guess.

The very hungry horse at the Jaermuseet
He said he was a bit peckish, but he wouldn't touch the grass I went and got for him. How rude!

Corylus avellana: The European hazel.
See I was listening to that nice man showing us round the park, even if I did get told off for giggling at his funny accent. Twice!! Sorry.
Fisketorget Bergen
Down the fish market in Bergen this morning.
Got a sharp nip on the nose from one of these! I was only giving it a sniff it to see if it was fresh enough for breakfast!

Feeding the Ducks on Mosvatnet Stavanger
One minute I was just feeding the ducks then these huge monster swans came along and bullied all the ducks away. So I ate the bread myself just to show them who's boss!

Love is all you need
Love is all you need. But probably not so environmentally acceptable to carve it into a tree. Bound to be something that adds to your carbon footprint or something! Rugly

Geocaching With Rugly
Went GPS treasure hunting at the weekend. Can't believe what fun it is, you have just got to give it a go if you have not already! Bet there is a box within 1km of where you live and you just never knew it!

Furry Friend
Stopped to help a furry friend cross the road, but it all went a bit wrong. I do let people walk all over me sometimes!

Tai Chi
Tai Chi in the early morning! Such a great idea, but I'd rather just have an extra half hour in bed!

The Dummy Tree
Took little Ida to the dummy tree today. She did not quite grasp the concept! She thought it was some sort of spares shop and started collecting a few extras in case of future losses. Just imagine it...being arrested for stealing dummies from the dummy tree. Kleptomania in the under threes is apparently a common problem, I'm told.
Maybe one day she'll give up her little addiction. Hopefully before she hits her teens.

Looking for a new boat at Obrestad
I'm looking for a new boat. But this one is a bit too big. Nice though! Just think of all the fish you could catch with a boat like this! Obrestad, Norway. Rugly
Thank you
A huge thank you to everyone who came to visit me at this years Stavanger PWC craft fair. It was great to meet you and I really enjoyed showing off all the wooden things I've been busy with. Signed lots of my books too so it was a really fun two days. Rugly
