In response to this thread Here here's some frog pix.
I didn't post in Abarb's thread for fear of going off topic.
As you walk in my home on the immediate right are some shelves, not full yet, with small objects on. They are illuminated by some led sticky lamps I got from IKEA. I like frogz. Here's pix:
The matching frog:
Where the frog is in the general scheme of things:
Lots more frogz, my daughter Lucy bought these for me when she was about 9 years old:
Details of shelves:
Mid nineties, they gave these Star Wars Figures away in packets of Rice Crispies, I got the whole set
Each one has a little scroll inside.
That little jar/pot amongst the frogz there, my friend Kathy brought that from Iran for me, mid seventies. Back then, the Shah of Iran was in charge, before the Ayatollah Khomeini. Kathy worked as a Bunny Girl in Park Lane and the Shah invited her there to work. She made lots of money but the Shah, gawd bless his little cotton socks, was always coming on to kathy, so she came home again. Just before the revolution, luckily for her.
Kathy's husband Steve, who I introduced to her, died from stomach cancer about six years ago. I liked Steve, RIP mate.
So that little jar thingie always reminds me of Kathy.
Here's the whole thing:
Whole thing illuminated:
With camera flash turned off:
A little further into the hall area, to the right, more frogz. Plants too
That piece of wood in the background is the base of a fence post I found whilst walking on Brighton beach about twelve years ago.
Way back in August Debbie & Stuart visited, Debbie rearranged the frogz
