I've received a few messages asking to continue the 1000 words thread. It has obviously given many people pleasure and some positivity. For anyone who doesn't know, posters come on with their photographs of pretty much anything and we take it from there. Nature is always a good one.

Just testing with a photo from yesterday to see why pictures on this thread aren't always appearing at the top of the active board when posted.

When I go into a church I take pictures of the flowers which are usually nicely done. The statues, murals and furnishings are permanent but the flowers are transient. These aren't particularly striking but I am trying help this thread find its rightful place in the Active list.

JackyB Wed 22-Sept-21 09:29:03

Nope. It's still not there.

JackyB Wed 22-Sept-21 09:30:18

But it is now top of the list in the chat forum

This is a photo of my auntie’s new puppy with her older dog. They are not related, and totally different breeds!

Just saw this lovely thread so here are a couple of flower pictures - one a bunch OH gave me a while ago and the other I tried to replicate and it doesn't look too bad I thought.

I will take some in the garden soon and post.

Love all your photos they are very nice.

Aldom Thu 23-Sept-21 08:57:15

Lovely photos fatgran. Good to see you on this thread. It's such a pleasure to see everyone's photos.

fatgran (I do hate typing your name!)
I’ve been snooping at your house in the background of your flowers.
Your home looks absolutely sumptuous and gorgeous! ?

Autumn moon on Pen y Fan.

Remember my photo of the downstairs loo???
The monkeys are back, on the landing this time.
Cat is unimpressed.

Casdon My husband was born in a house with a view of Pen y Fan. I have a lovely painting of the view, done as a gift to my husband, by a friend. Thank you for your photo.

Josianne that wallpaper is fabulous! What make is it?
Do you have a ‘thing’ about monkeys?
I do. I bought a dress from Boden just because it’s got monkeys on it. I hate the colour of it!

MiniMoon Thu 23-Sept-21 11:25:46

Another one from our recent holiday in Dumfries and Galloway. This is taken in Logan Botanical Gardens. Well worth a visit if you are ever in the area.
