debris4spikeWell I have just posted one set of answers Here ... and here are some more.

beanbeans asked me for a picture of a favourite tree or field ... Well, I will try to get my absolute favourite tree tomorrow, but until then there are some other trees ... and some fields. kudagirl asked to see my car and my kitchen. Don't look at the dirt on the car - remember I drive along country roads all the time (LOL), and my kitchen is small, so hard to take pictures, but here are a couple. I know that you also asked about jewellery - so will do those later (promise)act3scene1 asked for my front door - another dirty object(!) and an untidy garden - so I hope you don't mind in that I cheated slightly!!This is outside my parents house - I love it that they have tress around.
A few years ago we had friends visit from USA and their teenage son remended me that English fields are odd shapes - since then I have just loved general panoramas like these. They are taken on the road at the back of Mum and Dads and facing towards Dartmoor.
My car is a Chevrolet Matiz ... and is one year old. (I have had it 4 months). It is parket at Mum and dads in this picture.
My kitchen - good thing I am not a great chef!
My house
My house is the second one up in this picture.

Date: 2009-01-26 05:10 pm (UTC)Both where I live and Mum and Dad is hilly. So, yes you walk up to the top of my road, then down about as far to the town! I must get some more pics done at somepoint - it is dusk now, so won't work!
No, I am an indoor person for sitting - if I were to sit it would be the back as I like my privacy - but we get the sun at the front in the afternoons, so one neighbour does do a BBQ in her front garden occasionally!
I am not a great entertainer - but tend to make sure I plan dishes that can be cooked and served easily. But,a s I said in the other set of pics, that is my dining room - so I do have space to actually have a lot of people - I did do a meal for 10 once!!
Small cars - that is not as small as some! My brother drives a mini http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mini ... which as you can see only is 2-door ... and now we also have Smart Cars ... which are evn smaller - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_(automobile)
Ask what you want - doesn't worry me!

Date: 2009-01-26 09:34 pm (UTC)I have always loved the look of fields, ours have the same patchwork look over here with the different crops, but are usually bigger and don't have the lovely hedgerows that English fields usually do.
Your parents house is lovely, and I love the cabbage trees they have growing.
I love the blue of your car--I would have loved a blue car (it's my favourite colour). When we were looking for a new car for me I told Mark that I didn't want a red or a black car, so of course the car I wanted was only available in either black or red. LOL I picked the red. Black gets far too hot and is impossible to keep clean (especially when you have a gravel driveway).
This is a fun meme--I think I shall have to borrow it. *grin*

Date: 2009-01-26 10:04 pm (UTC)My last car was red, and I loved it ... so the blue was a complete change that took some getting used to! I think whatever colour a car it is hard to keep clean - I had a white one for a time ... that was bad!
Thanks for the pics!

Date: 2009-01-27 05:31 pm (UTC)Mum and Dad live in Torquay (where Agatha Christy lived) ... They have lived there 11 years. Before that they live in Bude (where I still live - near Tintagel, home of King Arthur) ... and I have lived here 22 years. Before that we lived in East London/Essex (from me being 6 to 25) ... before that North Wales, but I lived the first 3 months of my life in Essex ... Over here we have a lot of jokes about Essex girls - LOL This icon, btw, was taken of the Atlantic at Tintagel.
