Poor Chico :(

A little old man thought it a good idea to drive up my behind the other day. Chico and I were not very pleased-especially as the insurance man first said they will probably write her off. Anyway, long story short, Chico will no longer be written off, she will be fixed. She will, however still be moving on from my loving care and into the care of my sister’s boyfriend. After 10 years of being very excellent companions, it’s time for Chico and I to part ways. I can only hope that her replacement will be able to fill her tyres! So long and fare ye well dear friend. You have been lovely!

*Check back in a while for some Chico related memento works… :)

Fly Away Home

I was sitting in the yard the other day, when my neighbour let his pigeons out to fly. It seemed like a good day for few pictures, so I grabbed my camera.

These pigeons (or ones just like them) have been flying circles over my head for as long as I can remember. I am fond of them. They make me smile as I remember that, when I was younger, I did not know that they were homing pigeons. I thought they were wild birds and that everybody had a flock nearby to fly circles round their heads.
