Vintage
Nose
These are shots I took as I walked from the caravan a short distance over the causeway to Sketrick Island where there is a great coffee shop and restaurant called Daft Eddy's.
Now you might wonder why I put this shot in? Well this is a challenge for YOU! It is taken as I sit at Daft Eddy’s and my
caravan is in the shot however it is very hard to see. I wonder can you see it? Clue - the door of the
caravan is open and it is in a field all on its own behind a bungalow.
OK, since Sue from EC could not find the caravan, I have added another shot to help you find it. Another clue - look at bungalow just over RHS of island!
These Pale -bellied Brent geese surely will soon be
leaving for their breeding grounds however it was lovely to see them looking so
good before that trip.
Now do you have a favourite and did you find my old caravan?
Many thanks for your visit and also to all who leave comments.
No, no caravan found.
ReplyDeleteLove the geese and Daft Eddie's is a wonderful name for a restaurant.
gorgeous old vintage car, love cars like that. saw ya on google + had to stop by to say hello. have a lovely weekend. take care. ( :
ReplyDeletenope can't find it, what a beautiful spot to have your caravan.
ReplyDeleteHello Margaret, lovely scenes and photos. I love the tree reflections and the Brant geese.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday, enjoy your weekend.
Margaret, you must have included your vintage car photo just for me. It raised my heart rate. This is an MG TC (1945-50) which came originally with a 1250cc OHV motor producing 54.5 bhp connected to a four speed manual transmission. It was quite sporty at the time, and is fast enough to keep up with traffic today, so long as it is kept off expressways. MG only produced 10,001 of these cars, so they are not common. Most of the production was imported into the U.S. making it the most common foreign car.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so green. What a beautiful place!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots!
ReplyDeleteI think I see your caravan. Is it parked in front of some trees? The larger tree is on the right and there is a grassy field behind the trees?
I think you might just have found it. it isindeed very difficult to see unless you take the shot, enlarge it and find the caravan.
DeleteClassic reflections. So satisfying
ReplyDeleteAnother great set of reflections.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting geese! And a gorgeous old MG! Around San Francisco, MG's like that one, TC's etc, were among the very first imported cars to be seen---aside from occasional Jag or RR. That was the early 50's.
ReplyDeleteNice old MG and a lovely Hereford Margaret.
ReplyDeletelovely series of photos...and of course my favorite has to be the geese!
ReplyDeletegreat area. Love the old car and the Bent goose :)
ReplyDeleteGreat shots and I love the vintage car :) Think may just have found your caravan with the help of a magnifying glass :) Its in a beautiful location :)
ReplyDeleteWell done. I have to say it was very difficult. I must take a closer shot but when I am on the road then you cannot se my caravan. A lovely spot, peaceful and quiet.
DeleteNice pictures, Margaret, my favorite here is the MG, followed by the cow which I think is an Aberdeen. We saw a lot of those up in Aberdeen, Scotland. We haven't been to the I.O.W. But did sail past it a couple of times out of Southampton. We finally made it to Wales last year to round out our U.K. visits over the last ten years. Made it to the I.O.M. In 2007. I'd recommend it if you haven't been. My ancestors came from there.
ReplyDeleteJim, my daughter and family live on I.O.W. So I am there often. Pity you did mot visit N.Ireland, perhaps next time.
DeleteGreat N photos, especially the nose.
ReplyDeleteI love the vintage MG, a quintessentially English name that will always remain British to me despite the Chinese ownership...what a lovely nose on the demure cow. 'N' can stand for 'nice bovine' too...
ReplyDeleteLove the car and the water shots.
ReplyDeleteThe nose photo and resulting owner were awesome for the 'N' prompt this week.
ReplyDeleteLove the nose shots! :) I've never been able to get a good one, as our cows are too curious as soon as they see the camera!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't see the caravan :(....my favourite is the vintage MG...reminds me of my mum...her initials were MG and she used to tell me the car was named for her. She had a tiny little gold MG charm on her bracelet!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love the nose! Makes me miss my cows. Beautiful watery scenes. That is a great vintage car. Thanks so much for joining me for Friday's Hunt, Margaret. Have a great week.
