Picnic

All stop for lunch.......another filler today I am afraid.

We were all sitting on tree stumps for our lunch on Monday ...we looked like little elves!

Three good things:
1. An afternoon at the cinema watching The Wolf of Wall Street ....a bit of an eye opener but we really enjoyed it!!
2. 241 Orange Wednesday.
3. New blue shoe laces.

You make a nice a splash of colour in the woods!

[Paul "Snapchap" Everest]

Splendid shot! A picnic? At this time of year?

[Judith Greenwood]

Blue shoe laces in your red shoes? Hope so! Love your elves. Adam has seen that film and says the swearing is amazing (amazingly bad!) but I heard a psychologist saying that the swearing is part of the psychology of that sort of irresponsible behaviour.

[Pat Knowles]

@judithg The swearing was very frequent but you get so used to it in the end. Lets say I wouldn't advise you to go with your children....too embarrassing but we found it a rip roaring hilarious over load of excess!! I learnt a lot!!! Adam would have learnt a lot...how did he get in btw?
No blue laces for summer trainer types....blue instead of boring grey!

[Judith Greenwood]

@happypat Best not to ask....

[Sean O'Neill]

I saw the movie last night Pat. Little left to the imagination! This is a great shot with the little huddle of walkers, it has to be a fav.

[Pat Knowles]

@seanoneill Thank Sean specially for the fave!! Apparently they are having private screenings in London for all these bank & investment companies...you can imagine the riotous time they will have at those!!! A different world to most people thank goodness!

[🐞Lucy Dolittle]

Now that is the life, just up my street or should I say just on my stump? Great shot ;-)

[Rob Wareham]

Lovely photo. Nice place for a picnic. On my time line though I have a photo of your picnic followed by a cake. I am now ready for my tea!

[Sean O'Neill]

@happypat I'm thinking sinister thoughts about tear gas and locked doors for those banker chappies! Is that wrong of me?

[julia]

Great capture, so pleased they had colourful coats on ...

[Maggiemae]

Are you sure this is not the Thousand Acre Woods? I'm expecting one of the characters to appear in this setting! "Tan shoes and blue laces!"

[Pat Knowles]

@seanoneill Not at all they were corrupt & deserved every downfall they had....Still goes on today I don't doubt...you remember those five young men they called themselves something flamboyant....a well know author who shall be nameless was father to one.

[Pat Knowles]

@seanoneill Flaming Ferraris.

[Pat Knowles]

@maggiemae Ha ha maggiemae...no a very tiny wood with some tree trunks to sit on!
I should really be following your lead & placing little people in there!!! Not tan ...a sort of grey colour, thought it would give them a more modern touch!!!

[Jennifer]

Haha, great capture of the elves!

[Sue Rose]

Love your blue elves in among the wintery grey trees. Sounds like you had fun!

[Beryl Lloyd]

All the others have said it all -- so all I will say is "If you go down to the woods today ----you'll be in for a big surprise !!

[Jan Hall]

I'm not much of a cinema goer, but quite fancy that film. Love the composition of your shot Pat

[Sue Wilde]

Such a terrific capture with the bright jackets in contrast to the mossy trees

[Rick Schies]

I'm sure you enjoyed your day

[Chris Stapleton]

Cool

[Judith Johnson]

Lovely picnic spot Pat. We loved Greymouth, but then we were lucky with the weather. Apparently they get 265 days of rain a year!

[Dianne]

What a cute shot.

[Babs]

Looiks a bit chilly for a picnic. They certainly make them tough in Lancashire. My sister lives in Lancashire and she went to Southport for the day with a friend, had fish and chips by the sea and then came home again. IN JANUARY!!!!

[dh (delena)]

I like the splash of colour to break up the wintery scene.

[Peggy Sirk]

And a perfect moss covered forest setting for an elf picnic! Delightful shot!

[Al Bailey]

Lol .... you do look like little elves! Super shot :)
