  1. I don’t know what any of them are, I’ll carry on thinking, Nym.

    The first one looks like a sort of crust, or bun, maybe.

  2. Three looks quite disgusting, vaguely like a rotting penis hung over beads. Must have been a most peculiar burial!
    Two looks like hairs on a cactus.
    One looks like the open maw of a ravening monster about to consume said bread and butter pudding,

    Papa, you’re wrong, one is the alien here not three. Three has already done its worst but no. one is terrifying if you are a lover of puds.

  3. Nym, your patience does you credit. If anybody stood me up as Cuprum does you, I’d give ’em what for!

  4. Well vaguely dear, it does look as if it may have been ‘Bobbitted’ a bit first, Perhaps someone didn’t take too well to the Pharaoh! He probably had nasty habits!

  5. Nothing, but nothing was worse than Scottish battleships, not Waiting for Cuprum, nor even a pome or a knitting pattern. Bring back the Pony Club! 😀

    You realise, of course, that this might mean a leisurely resumption of hostilities at some point in the definable future. OZ’s comment is like a red flag to a bull or, more accurately, a beige flag to a moribund sloth, in my opinion.

    It would seem that they Southrons just cannae take it up them when it comes to the sheer.gripping intensity of a game of Scottish Battleships as properly and languidly played.

    I’ll be in touch some time with a move. Almost certainly.

    If I can be bothered.

  7. JM, I knew I’d regret mentioning Scotch B’ships. Now I’ll have to get in some siege rations and fat paperbacks to sustain me during the long Spring evenings.

  8. Nymj, your would-be squeeze never materialised. So are you on the pull again now? 😮

  9. I’m back!

    Thank you Pseu for your patience, and yes, shift work it is. There have been other unhappy distractions too, but here are my best guesses:

    1 – a gall wasp’s thingy
    2 – A frosty leaf
    3 – a shell necklace?

  10. Hurrah!

    OK Here we go

    1. A poppy seed head, with a hole in the side.

    2. A vine leaf, from a Kiwi Vine, just as it was opening out, last Spring.

    3, A glass bead from a necklace.

    DaNah!!
