FSO Scavenger Hunt–Spin, Drop, Rest

Robert Burns is sitting on my shoulder whispering:
The best laid schemes o' mice an' men
Gang aft a-gley, [often go awry]
You got it right there, old chap.

I actually had a plan for taking photos for this topic.  Thursday.  I tried on Tuesday but wasn’t happy and determined to have another go on Thursday.  You’ve guessed it, along with Thursday came a bit of a storm.

Tuesday’s child was not full of grace, he was extremely frustrated that the thing simply would not spin.

So I thought I might drop ‘drop’.  But, hey, look what happens when you suddenly get an idea and don’t check your camera settings.  It’s the crystal hanging in my kitchen window.

To see how others got on with the Scavenger Hunt, just pop over here.  The suggested guidelines last time were:

straight out of the camera, no editing
one photo per word
three words for each hunt
and we can add a fourth photo if we can find all three hunt words in one photo

so I've presumed the same applies this time.

  3. Despite living in Scotland (half my time anyway) I can't imagine having Rabbie Burns on my shoulder whispering in my ear. No. Definitely not.

  6. I don't know when they started adding spinning things to kid playgrounds, but the kids love them, and I cannot sit on them - getting too dizzy too quickly!
