These photographs hopefully illustrate the word prompts we were given
last week. It was a busy week as I spent all day as an Extra on a film drama, took a group on a tour of the BBC and another day meet a friend to go to St George's Market in Belfast where most of these images were taken.

Cool
I thought both the cow and these sweat short were really cool although I imagine some of you do not understand what is written on them as it is Northern Ireland speak!

Media
I captured this man having a coffee and reading his newspaper and below is one of the studio where BBC Radio Ulster is broadcast from.

Something New
These clothes were beautifully designed and made.
I thought they looked really special looking.

Scarf
The shot above is of me in my 1991 costume as an Extra.
The other day, I was walking along the road thinking, I need another scarf shot when I noticed this pretty young girl walking towards me and thought her hat and scarf were beautiful. So I stopped and asked her could I take a photograph. Lindsey agreed, so thanks for helping me out.

Starts with C
Back at the markets where there were numerous CONDIMENTS on sale.
There was a marvellous selection of fish and these are CRABS below. Notice the bubbles in the shot. The fishmonger told me, the crab was blowing me kisses!

Many thanks for visiting and also to all who leave comments.
Loved, as usual, your Scavenger hunt.
ReplyDeleteHI Sue Glad you enjoyed it.
Deleteseafood looks good. :)
ReplyDeleteThe fish stalls were amazing with such a wonderful variety of fish. Thanks for comment.
DeleteGreat post and I did love that young lady's hat and scarf.
ReplyDeleteYou have outdone yourself this week Margaret. A wonderful selection of images. Loved them all, especially the old man and his daily.
ReplyDeleteAgain, a good collection of every day life photos. Your crabs look delicious. And your Something New are just lovely.

Hi Margaret,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures and video.
The scarves, hats and other clothes are really beautiful
Photographed everything perfect, my compliments.
Best regards, Irma
lovely set of photos. I am a scarf junky, love your scarves (and Lindsey's outfit) :)
ReplyDeleteHow fun being an extra for a film!
ReplyDeleteHi Margret,
ReplyDeleteGreat shots. Love the Scarf shots and the Starts with C shots.
Thanks for stopping by my place. Have a great day!
Great pics, and fresh crab is delicious!

Great are the photos, I loved the hat and scarf.
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful selections, Margaret! Love the scarf and jacket! Looks so pretty. And I laughed at the shirts. I'm assuming that 'Wind Your Neck In,' is translated as 'Quit Gawking!' ??? Gave me a chuckle.
ReplyDeleteNo that is not what it means. the most polite way I can put it is "someone getting very cocky and needing to be told to calm down"
DeleteGreat photos Margaret showing how cultured & sophisticated we are in Norn Iron! I'm sure there was a sweatshirt saying Quare Craic! It suits your post! I need to buy the one saying Real Men drive tractors for my brother!
ReplyDeleteWonderful Scavenger Hunt photos. Loved the EEJUT T's...I found it fun hearing that word in Ireland when we visited. We use it some in the American South too! I'm sure it was brought over from Ireland with many settlers. Beautiful scarf and hat...sweet of the girl to model for you!
ReplyDeleteLovely post, i remember when you were on the radio.

I love this post - You certainly shared some good photos of your scavenger hunt!
ReplyDeleteWhat does 'buck eejit' mean? I get the second word is 'idiot' but 'buck'?!?!?
ReplyDeleteHi Stuart The words go together or you can use eejit on its own but both mean the same thing.
DeleteIdiot, nitwit, dolt, moron or thicko Often used affectionately. I soppose buck is used like a 'young buck'
How fun to be an extra! Smart outfit - love the scarfs and the tour. The handmade clothing is wonderful. - Karen
ReplyDeleteNice shot of you! Nice series of photos.
ReplyDeleteThese are perfect for the prompts! I had such a hard time with scarf, but you've shared wonderful scarf images. How lucky to see someone reading the newspaper too!
ReplyDeleteHoly Cow!
ReplyDeleteLovely selection of photos. You've had a busy week - would imagine being an extra was fun :)
ReplyDeleteHey! Thanks for dropping by my blog. I love your 1991 costume. The scarf really adds to it. What was it like being an extra? I bet it was fun.
ReplyDeleteThe shot of the man reading his newspaper is really great! Around here, you don't see too many people reading paper copies of the paper, and I like that people still read a paper copy.
That cow really does look cool.
Many thanks for looking in on my blog and I am glad you enjoyed this post. Yes being an Extra was very interesting but a very long 12 hour day.
DeleteI just remembered I forgot to check out your scavenger hunt. Love the matching hat and scarf!
