It does also look Aboriginal, Rolf again Pimp?

aboriginal pictures are always as from above arent they? and they do draw lizards i think

15 Feb, 2012

 

Yep, and this even has the dotty effect they use too. Kasy's drive to work is longer than we thought ;)

15 Feb, 2012

 

i was thinking that ~ all the little dots fit nicely.

quite a bit longer!!

i drive 9 miles but i do go past [ok sometimes i stop and call in] the GC on the way back!!

I notice you've got pictures of the private garden at Ashwoods, that place (the shop) is my Mecca. I've bought some of my most precious conifers there and the conifer nursery at Rock. The drive is a pilgrimage I always enjoy but one I have to draw myself careful maps for! sadly no more as I'm at full capactity now :(

I always see WoW on the way but have never stopped there.

15 Feb, 2012

 

do you mean me severn?
John's garden behind ashwood nursery is perhaps the best garden and the most beautiful i have ever been to.

its a bit tricky to get to and sadly not the one on my way home.

15 Feb, 2012

 

I got really lost on the lanes near to it once. Very irate lol ;)

15 Feb, 2012

 

no sat nav? im putting that on my christmas list!!

its not so bad once you have been a couple of times but they are narrow lanes

15 Feb, 2012

 

Don't trust them in trucks because of low bridges and narrow lanes, and I'm generally ok in the car. It's actually that area of the West Midlands that's a maze.

And the locals don't take prisoners ;)

15 Feb, 2012

 

no thats true!!!

its a bit tricky certainly

15 Feb, 2012

 

I see Moravians Venus there :) her large hips namely...

15 Feb, 2012

 

Just got here...I thought Aboriginal instantly...it is almost the colour of Uluru

15 Feb, 2012

 

Posted a picture of Aboriginal lizard for you guys;-)
Well - decided to use country road - most of the time speed limit is 40 mph, very bendy road, so it takes a while to get home....
Forgot my sandwiches for my lunch so decided to cook something first before leaving comments on GoY:)
Katarina - Moravians Venus? which one is that? can you send us a link?
Stevie - that's a great thought, hehe

15 Feb, 2012

 

Another advantage working at the garden centre - I don't have to pop into it on my way home, lol

15 Feb, 2012

 

Aboriginal, e.g. from Australia you mean?

15 Feb, 2012

 

Yes Katarina - one of my friends from London was fascinated by Aboriginal culture - I think he brought this plate from Australia.

15 Feb, 2012

 

I mean that..I can see what you mean as well Katarina, But I would call her the Maltise Venus..

15 Feb, 2012

 

Venus of Moravany you can find on this page

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pie%C5%A1%C5%A5any

It is paleolithic figure of woman, carved from mamooth tooth, found in western Slovakia.
