McG -
 |
| We start with McG, given a death sentence by our ex vet (can you guess why) in January last year but still going strong thanks to a change in diet and a lot of love and understanding (he was having a few accidents - cured by taking any stress out of his life). |
 |
| Joe gets featured because he looks like he can ski It's all smoke and mirrors |
 |
| Alfie - Kirsty and Joe's dog who joined us in Wales... |
 |
| The running man - waterfall shot.... |
 |
| Spotted fly catcher |
 |
| Red Kite |
Mischief
 |
| Mischief - who often gets over overshadowed by McG |
V-Festival - Chelmsford
Another great year and already booked up for 2012, before Mrs B changes her mind....
 |
| Noisettes "Don't upset The Rhythm" |
 |
| Not so much a case of “Where's Wally?” – as “Where isn’t there a Wally?” |
 |
| Eliza Doolittle "Skinny Genes" |
 |
| Hard-Fi "Tied Up Too Tight" |
 |
| The most asked questions when people see The Beast Are you famous? can you take our picture? |
 |
| Can't a girl have some privacy when she goes into the bush... |
 |
“I blow raspberries in your general direction....” This Lion taunter knows how to give some stick |
 |
| Pack your trunks guys - it's holiday time again.... |
 |
| In case you didn't notice I like to capture birds in flight... |
 |
| I don't think I'm too bad at it.... |
Technically the same holiday as the safari
 |
| Red sails in the Sunset |
 |
| Mauritius seems to specialise in Sunsets.... |
 |

My first photo pass - Love and Money
One more high in a year full of highs....

James Grant - "Walk the Last Mile" |
 |
| And ending as we started with McG lets hope we can get him through 2012... |
The photos probably don't even come close to doing justice to 2011 but I'm sure you have already started to get bored, I can see some of you fidgeting and checking your watches....
Favourite film of last year - My week with Marilyn
Favourite album - probably Velociraptor by Kasabian
Next week catch up with us in Canada for our New Year Ski trip to Whistler
Great photos, and I wasn't even close to boredom. Hope the rest of your ski trip went well!
ReplyDeleteAnd nary a shot of a wardrobe malfunction.
ReplyDeleteNicely done, sir.
Hey Al, nice to see you over here! The Beast does take good pictures, and the dude operating the buttons isn't too bad either?
DeleteI'm always mighty impressed when I drop by, then I go and have a long heart to heart with my pipsquick pocket camera and tell it to shape up or I'm trading it in for a Beast of my own!
I'm taking total advantage of this new method of replying...now I reply everywhere...you just never know where you'll find me next!
Fantastic photos - I can't wait to see next week's lineup!
ReplyDeleteGlad to have you back posting...you've been missed! Lots has been happening around Bloggerville while you've been globetrotting!
Cheers, Jenny @ PEARSON REPORT

Glad to hear at least someone out there has good taste and staying power. Whistler village was a bit wet at times and no blue skies to be seen but some excellent snow...find out the gory details next week....

Nicely done, sir.
Fortunately for me the lion and the witch soaked up all the malfunctions.....

Not sure it’s going to work as I had to suspend the new method as it freezes the blog...
No boredom here! Really great pictures. I love the waterfall and lion ones. Really cool! Thanks for sharing. Here's to a great 2012!
ReplyDeleteLove all the photos, especially Mischief. And Imma gonna steal that Alfie dog! Love love love him.
ReplyDeleteKisses and better health to your dear McG. :)

I will have to try and get a picture of a lion in the waterfall, that would certainly knock your socks off. Sorry I have not been regularly commenting over at Dear Diary, I seem to be struggling with a bit of comment block and floundering for inspiration....

ReplyDeleteLove all the photos, especially Mischief.
It’s nice that Mischief gets some recognition – about 90% of people favour McG...
And Imma gonna steal that Alfie dog! Love love love him.
He is a character but I think Joe and Kirsty might have something to say about
Kisses and better health to your dear McG. :)
indeed, as long as he doesn’t continue to wake me up at 4am, looking for a warmer spot to snuggle into....
I appreciate a good trunk joke. And any animal caption joke for that matter, as you well know. It bears repeating that still I think you ought to try and pitch a collection of those snapshot funnies to a literary agent. Real life Gary Larson type stuff.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Velociraptor: loved it. Damn fine choice.
McG is a adorable! What we do for our babies!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are amazing! You definitely have a talent for photography! I thoroughly enjoyed them! Thank you for sharing! You have an amazing life!
Looking forward to 2012!
Beautiful pictures!

Unfortunately most people would like to see all my jokes locked in a trunk.....
It bears repeating that still I think you ought to try and pitch a collection of those snapshot funnies to a literary agent. Real life Gary Larson type stuff.
I wonder if I should just print off some of my pictures and stick them straight in a bargain bin, cutting out the middle man.....
Also, Velociraptor: loved it. Damn fine choice.
Excellent, another person with good taste...

We do count ourselves as fortunate for ordinary people....
Looking forward to 2012!
I’m not sure I’ve got over 2011....
