Mine is going tomorrow! π’π
Weβre in the pub and thereβs a middle-aged couple sitting in the corner, not talking, just sipping their drinks and reading their books, and this is what weβre aspiring to now.
A scarecrow who has just watched Monty Python's The Holy Grail for the first time
A scarecrow who is feeling pleased with himself after forming a 1950s sci-fi themed surf rock band, of which he is the sole member
A scarecrow who is dolled up and ready for a night out in the fanciest part of Newcastle
A very pleasant and well-meaning scarecrow who will paint your house for a competitive rate while rhapsodising about the beauty of the land
THREAD. A collection of photos I have taken of scarecrows I have stumbled across during walks in the British countryside over the last fifteen years.
Thanks, Jez - and I agree about Lost in the Garden!

We've had a red kite who has been very ooh-reeee today
Happy, happy birthday!
Thanks, Stephanie!
Definitely worth a detour
