Hello Hello Hivians.
The first weekend is Spring was a bizarre one. I got hit with a cold at the end of the week. A week in which we had glorious sunshine. So we started Spring with worse weather than the tail end of Winter, and I felt worse than I had in the whole of Winter!
Not to worry. The great thing about pain and feeling shite is that we know we are still alive!
Did you see George Foreman passed away a couple of days ago? That was a shame, apart from being a fluffing outstanding boxer he became a household name at least here in the UK with his range of George Foreman grills! I always liked Big George maybe as his middle name was Edward, because looking back on his life I don't actually remember any of his fights!
Of course we had the Rumble in the Jungle which I don't actually remember just what I read or watch!
That was the scene a few days ago in late afternoon!
Spring is here when you see the yellow daffodils all over the place!
Simple yet gorgeous they.
It also got me thinking...
I was speaking to someone who is a lover of yellow. I said that I love yellow too! She turned around and said but you love blue. To which I responded I love lots of colours.
I especially love the colour of yellow and blue!
There are some gorgeous colour combinations don't you think?
A little while later as I was heading home, another colour came and hit me.
Do you see it? No I don't mean the fluff off big bus that came careering round the corner and nearly knocked me off the street.
I love that shot as the pillars of the park entrance and the same red sandstone colour as the house in the first picture.
But the colour was the colour of this tiny cute wee car.
I remember years ago, real men didn't wear pink or salmon coloured shirts or t shirts.
What a load of claptrap I must admit I wear what I want and almost always have done.
Pink is pink, peach is peach and salmon is salmon and I shall wear whatever the fluff I want.
My suits used to quite often be a shade of olive green. Get a tan and I would wear any colour.
So yes blue is my favourite colour, but I will wear almost anything.
The reason why is that I am a Chromophile!
It doesn't need to be black or white it just needs to have a bit of colour in it!
Chromatophilia – sometimes used for love of colour generally (alongside, e.g., melanophilia, xanthophilia, leukophilia as love of black, yellow, white, respectively)
This is what greeted me on Thursday morning! Frost, it was a kicker of a week and was fluffing cold at night..
But the point of the picture is...
Red ~ Another colour!
Okay when I say colour I think I mean bright colours.
Bright and beautiful, it brightens up a day!
Talking about brightening up a day, I collected our painting we painted on Valentine's Day during the week...
Can you guess which half I painted?
Now that I have it, I can make a post documenting the creation process!
Thanks so much for popping in and have a great new week!
