Yellow

It hasn't been very interesting lately . So much so , I've had time to wonder whether that first sentence should have a comma after 'interesting'.

And to read articles on whether Eating More Than 6 Bananas At Once Can Kill You (  from the BBC online magazine ) . It seems that you'd have to eat more than 400 in a day to reach unsafe levels of potassium , so that's alright then . Then the writer spoilt the whole thing by adding that the levels of radioactivity  , on the other hand , are negligible ,
" Bananas are not so radioactive as Brazil nuts and can be eaten in moderation ."  Well no , that  hadn't been keeping me awake ...

Luckily there's been the odd splash of my favourite colour to cheer me up , including some berries , Mata Hari perching on the wall of our local Bagel & Beans ,  a sunflower , a very nice little boat  and a fly on the other side of a window .

Regarding the first part of this post: I absolutely HATE fear-mongering media. Like we don't have enough to worry about in real life without people stirring up nonsense like that. People who write those articles should be force-fed 400 bananas.

Love the photos!

Love yellow too. I'm crocheting a yellow shawl and have decided that it now needs tempering with a bit of grey. Your 1st photo has made me think that I should now try a bush with berries by our front door. The climbing rose only lived foe a couple of months. Is that a pyracantha?

I do like a splash of yellow. Unless it's on one of these. There are probably a lot of bananas behind that door!

I didn't know i had to worry about Brazil nuts. I will have to stop worrying about something else to make room for that one.
Forecast for this winter, very cold indeed apparently.

I love the tug-boat. Does a Tug-boat change its name when it pushes rather than tugs?

There you are, if you try hard enough there’s always something besides commas to please the undiscerning.

You cannot be half as brain-dead as I feel at the moment. It wouldn’t be fair, let me at least be the best at something utterly negative.

Now, about those bananas - how about a banana eating contest?

Well, that's a relief. So much to worry about if only we knew.
