The title of this blog comes from a Gaelic expression -"putting on the poor mouth"-which means to exaggerate the direness of one's situation in order to gain time or favour from creditors.
Lovely horse ... Funny I was just reading autofocused's comment, I'm just down the road from you I would never have noticed if they hadn't have commented lol
Wonderful horse... Ah.... I can almost smell it - I love the horse smell! That's about as near as I come horses today with my back. bummer.
My WW is: “Slip On The Ship”
(Because of our fabulous cyber cruise that starts now on Friday the 16th of March with many fantastic destinations such as: Sweden, Norway, Belgium, Spain, Germany, Alaska (!), US, Italy, Dominican Republic, Australia and other mystery destinations!)
Welcome to cruise with us by enter the A-Swab Team and later on the A-Team Cruiser :-)
He certainly was no size 0 and that's for sure Brian
Romford born, Romford left then Romford returned to Autofocused. This photo was taken over at the Chase, off the Rainham Road. Let's say that Romford is!

Any day can be a wordless one, Ren.. Seriously if I did have to be actually wordless today, I would burst!
Next time I'm over the Chase I'll tell him a few jokes, Amy. A Shire horse a shetland and an Apalooza go into a bar..... Hmm, it could work you know!
In 8th grade I had Mr. West who was ancient and very gay. I sat in the front. Everyday he'd have to go thru the mental Rolodex to get to where we left off (sometimes from 5mins before) and he'd taptaptap his chaulk on the blackboard making these little snowflake designs. One day he taptaptap'd, turned, looked at me and asked 'Do they still call heroin 'horse'?' Uhhh, I dunno, Mr. West, I'm only 13.... Jen
Very pretty coat. Size 99XX.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a cold horse.
