Thought you might like to see some of the pics we took at the Shire Horse Show :D

There was a picture of a Percheron as well, Melanie.... but the naughty boy had 5 legs!! So, I had to censor the pic.... must keep my blog nice and clean!! :D

Peajay said...

Great photos Anna, thanks for the editing it may have been too much for my young eyes! :))

Melanie said...

Yes, males do tend to show their excitement with such exuberance!!! ;D

Lovely photos!! It would have been a great show to see! :))

Melanie said...

Hi Peajay!! :D well, young one, perhaps I shouldn't send you the new car alarm video advert!! ;D

Peajay said...

As a young person I think I should be exposed to all aspects of life! ;D (besides the last one you posted on my blog was a little revealing in the buttock department) :D

Peajay said...

Hi Anna,
You need to pay a visit back to both the free clock people and re-do the clocks for GMT+1 so we all know what the time is. :)
Congrats on exam, well done you. Never suspected anything other than your passing. :)

anna said...

Good call... Peajay... I've removed the other one.. I couldn't remember how to change it!! :D

Peajay said...

Which do you prefer? I like the picture one myself but not keen on the ad that comes up loud-n-proud should you dare to hover nearby. And of course the other had the date for those of us who barely know which day of the week it is. :D

anna said...

Yes the date was useful... but I'm with you I like the picture one :)

I was going to change the template .... just for the hell of it... but I couldn't find another one that I liked as much ... so .... I'll leave it. :)

anna said...

Thought I'd have a change.... anyway :D

Peajay said...

My word that was a bit of a shock, one minute it was subtle and the next it was very green. I thought my laptop had malfunctioned for a minute. :) Nice colour though.

Melanie said...

whew, what a surprise!!! :))

I came to say hello, and Anna has gone mod, or is this retro sixties green!!!! :))

anna said...

I'm fed up with the green .... so I've gone for the orange .. for a change :))

Peajay said...

Hi Anna
Nice weather pixie, my weather reports come from Heathrow how about yours?
It's starting to look a bit Irish on this blog we've only got one colour left for the full effect.;)

anna said...

My forecast comes from Wittering ... which is just up the A1 a bit.

So closer to me than Heathrow.

I've been trying out a few different colour schemes ... but decided to use this one for now!! :D

I did quite like the red... but it was probably a bit loud :)

Peajay said...

Wittering has the Harrier Jump Jet outside it's front door I think. Alas we don't have anything nearer apart from Luton and who wants weather from Luton!! :D
I like the change of colour.

anna said...

I decided to change it again.... I just can't make my mind up!! :D

Yes ... Wittering is the one with the Harrier outside... I worked there for just over 8 years... :)

Peajay said...

I like this one even more, the side panels add a touch of class.

I've driven past Wittering many times and admired the Harrier. It's a shame they've pensioned the plane off but then the same could be said of so many other greats, particularly the Vulcan.

anna said...

Oh the Harrier is still going Peajay... they have the GR7 version at present. The training unit is at Wittering and the operational squadrons are at Cottesmore, near Rutland Water. Altho' they are also operating in Afghanistan. :(

Mr A worked on them until 2 years ago.... when he moved to a desk job.

Glad you like this style... I think its rather nice ... I'll stick with this for now :)

Peajay said...

I'm glad they're still with us, they're a fab plane with attitude and much better looking than the new euro fighter don't you think?

Melanie said...

I like the new look, Anna!

Your talk of 'planes' is fun, as I have military ones flying about my way as well!!! Something we all have in common!! :)

My weather comes out of Mojave, about 30 miles north of mah place. (I'm still laughing there's no humidity measurement...I think it was 18% today) ...I'm thirrrrrsty, pleeeease pass the waterrrrr......

Wittering....seems about right!!!;)))
