GOT ME AN ANGEL!!!

Just when I'd given up hope, there she was......


.....just standing there,waiting for me.....in my neighbour's garden!

I popped along to show her the results of yesterday's pedicure (which I shall share with you soon- I have marbled toenails!) and as I walked in to her garden I spotted this little statue. My neighbour couldn't quite understand my excitement, but was very happy to have been able to help!

I also have as-close-to-a-hammock as I reckon I'm going to get


I'm hoping it qualifies Rinda?!...if not, I'm off looking for a heart-shaped stone! It IS suspended from the hanger on one side, though I realise that technically it should be both sides.

I await your judgement ;)

Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you

  2. The angel is adorable! Don't give up yet on the tree swing/hammock - there is still a whole month before the Scavenger Hunt is up!

  4. I think we are all finding that family and friends think we are getting excited about odd things this summer! Well done on the angel, fancy her being so close to home all this time. Who knows where you may find a hammock ....

  6. Oh, I love your angel photo, Alison. When I read your post caption I thought, "Of COURSE you've got yourself an angel...in fact, you have many!" ;o)

    We had a terrible wind storm come through last night and it knocked my little garden angel off the wall and she broke in half. :o\ Time for a little angel shopping...

  8. Love the story of the angel. So, so close all that time! lol A hammock is going to be a harder find I think if the one you captured doesn't count. Although our neighbors have one in their backyard.

  9. Your neighbour has a pretty garden! I love that wagon filled with flowers!! A heart shaped stone? That sounds like a tough one!!

  16. Well done on the angel - I've still got half the list to go (unless I use some cheeky cheaty photos), but there's another month ...

  17. What about the toes ... marbled toes, I'd like to see those nails!

    Well done, I like the hammock - I could have a snooze right now, hey, hang on, it's only 9.15AM here!

  18. Ack, I mean where are the toenails.

  19. It looks like a very nice hammock ... one in which you won't end up on the ground everytime you go to get up! For once, I am actually looking forward to a bit of summer. Hammocks, garden statues ... ahhhhhh, lovely!

  21. well done - one of the things I really enjoy about the scavenger hunt is the joy at stumbling upon an item

  22. What a fun find - and right next door! I think that definitely qualifies under the hammock category!

  23. Definitely a hammock in my book and the angle is beautiful! Glad you caught your train! Having fun catching up with you this evening.

  24. What a lovely little angel - you've given me an idea. Think we're off to check out the garden centres today. I've checked all the churches and cemetaries in the area so..... Oh that hammock looks so much more comfortable than ours. Speaking of which off to put it together.
