More scavenger hunt photos

I've not done a great deal this weekend except to look for photos for the scavenger hunt and a bit of decluttering

 

25. A House Number the same as my Birthday

 

I know an area in Preston where the doors are rather nice so we went hunting for my door number on one.

It was surprising how many streets didn't have enough houses to get to number 20, but we found one at last.

 

24. A hand addressed letter

I have sent off to Be-ro for 2 new baking books 1 for one of the grand daughters and another for my friend Borqna in Bulgaria. She loves cooking and I thought she might like to try a bit of British baking.

 

26. Fallen leaves Rustling

These leaves aren't very rustly any more they've been on the ground too long

These were outside our oldest daughters new flat

 Last but not least

and not for the scavenger hunt.

I just had to take more photos of these delicate crocuses

We have had them for many years and I don't remember when I last saw them opened like this because it usually rains on them and destroys them before they have opened out.

I think they are beautiful.

Friday 13th February

I never thought my dad was really superstitious but he hated Friday the 13th probably because  when he turned his car over many years ago it was on Friday 13th. I'm not sure what month it was but it was the Winter because he skidded on ice and ended up on the roof. I think he was lucky because he got out of the car with only bruises - the car was a right off.

 

I thought I would take these photos today as it has started to rain and these delicate crocuses are damaged by the rain every year.

 

 We've also got some irises out

Roland picked Oliver up from school and he helped granddad make burgers for tea.

Last but not least

for the Blue Brads Winter Scavenger Hunt

Saturday 7th February and a photo for the scavenger hunt

Wednesday

 

The patches I managed to make at a patchwork workshop on Wednesday.

I made 6 more so I can now sew them together and hopefully make a cushion with them

I also worked on my bag and have got this far

 It is going slowly at the moment but it shouldn't be long before I have finished it.

 

4. Fir Cone

I have no idea what tree this cone comes from except that it comes from America
