    Beautiful piece of earth! I'd love to sit there for a while now and listen to XTC's Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead, which is my favourite song of them! ;o)

    By the way, this was what we had in front recently in Belgium...not our pics and we're sadly not visible in the crowd, but doesn't matter, great shots:

    Ha! Ha! Wouldn't fancy being the person responsible for getting the grass stains out of their cream suits!

    Somehow, the song lyrics, coupled to this image of a tranquil garden, is now wreaking havoc on my mind. All those beautiful flowers, squashed! No, say it isn't so ;-)

    Beautiful place--such serenity! I am feeling OLD after watching that video or maybe just very different. I don't 'get' music videos like that---I'm for the concrete images of country music videos, which BTW my husband thinks are BORING and rather nauseating. Oh well. As always, you expand my world, dear Niki.;>) Thank you!

    Nice quote.
    PS I didn't forget to thank Otli for the theme - this theme came from me, as I didn't hear back from Otli.
