"elephant hunting around london" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"as strange as the title may sound" there's a street art thing going on all over London at the moment called the elephant parade, it's well worth a trip to London to see them, i get to London a couple of times a week and have now got the bug for spotting and photographing them, im up to number thirteen so far, only another two hundred and thirty seven to go so here's some of my faveroit's so far



here's a link to what it's all about http://www.elephantfamily.org/

think this one's for poppy

i like writing on here, it's good you don't seemed to get bothered by idiot's leaving pointless comment's and glittery childish picture's, it's like a real freedom of speech thing, if someone finds it interesting they will comment but till then you just put your mind's ramblings into word's.
some of you may read my blogs and think this is all just some kind of shrine to poppy my girlfriend, "so what if it is" she's something else, i've never met anyone like her before she's so down to earth, dos'nt want for anything, she's got nothing but to poppy it dos'nt matter, she's got a smile that can light a room and an arora to match, nature is the only way to sum poppy up she is a true eve, think that's why i make the one hundred and twenty odd mile trip each weekend to see her,

that's the van running again

well that's the van back from it's little holiday at poppy's house, the welding on the water pump housing worked and apart from what seemed a life time filling her with water she running fine now, i was on tenter hook's all the way back from leamington but she went fine, did give her another final good go over when i got back to swindon and it all loked fine and dandy, so saturday morning was the end of the van's trouble's and the start of mine. (Poppy needed slave labour) so i was ordered out into the garden to clear an old concrete slab to make way for her new vegetable garden, that was hard work but got there in the end, so next weekend it's just get some edging board's, half a ton of top soil and some good old manure, and we'll never have to go shopping for fresh vegetable's again,

He alighted the the the train and made his way through the station, with his hart pounding with the anticipation of what the weekend would hold, then through the madding crowd of people their eye's met, and he called to her in his soft wiltshire accent "ERE U OLD TROLLOP, IM STARVING CUD EAT A SCABBY DONKEY BOLLOX FIRST, LET'S GRAB A FRY UP
