I start with this post of 20 icons, for [community profile] characters20in20  all from the film
High Plains Invaders which is a film starring James Marsters ... so, yes, one I certainly had to watch!

I obviously wished too hard for learning work containing text, as this was another challenge in this set. We had to use at least 3 words from a song. In this case my choice of song was easy (and, no, I didn't know the challenge before I picked this film). James wrote and sang a song A Cappella about the back story of the film (and the words are below). For those who don't know the film, but worry about a couple of the scenes, the 2 of them do end up with a "happy" ending.

ALONE

Well I alone in Averenth
With my lady by my side
After wars I left her
And now she’s come to watch me die

She’s a flower in the sun
Now she’s crawlin’ through the mud
‘Cause a me, ’cause a me

My heart was sick, from killin’ Injuns
With their babies in their beds.
I refused but my General
Put his gun up to my head.

I wanted to come home
So Abby wouldn’t live alone
So I killed, burned them down

I woke up, cold dark morning
Saw a face in the mirror
Realized what I was bringing home
Wasn’t worth bringing anymore.

I tried to heal my sores
With robbin’, whisky and whores
Didn’t work. I was still bad

Sheriff – put the noose right around me
Pull it tightly, snap my neck
Don’t want my love to see me strangle
When my soul’s all blown to heck

So I’m alone in Averenth
With my lady watchin’ me die
I don’t know if I could bear it
To see poor Abby cry one more time.

But, at least I am still here!

I realised I had a few sets of icons to make, so photos are still to be sorted. However I have a couple here from around Exeter ... I am lucky I live in a very historic city.
Our history is pre-Roman ... but this is where the city was truly established

This is the Roman gatehouse of the castle ... built in 1068 ... and is the oldest "complete" Norman building

The Guildhall was started in the 13th century and is still in use for it's original reason - the longest span of history in England (of a single building that has not changed it's use ... other than a Church)
DSC_3171
This is King Charles II's sister ... she was born in Exeter, and her father King Charles I visited here to see her as a baby.  She lived locally until she was 2 years old ... thus her brother gave us the portrait when she died (possibly of poison!).
DSC_3174
Our present King is Charles III and he was involved with the renovation of the cloisters while Prince of Wales, but has maintained the patronage as King

So, a story of 3 King Charle's!!!!

Right - I need to get on and get to work ...
