Treasure! by Mr Larrington, on Flickr

Not exactly the Treasure of the Pharaohs compared with some of Mr Pig's swag, but one can never be:

• Too rich, or
• Too thin, or
• In possession of too many screwdriver bits

Presumably abandoned by medical students.  Brought it home for barakta, obviously.

No, I was in a rush.

[Pingu]

What bit of anatomy is it (asks a chemist wot can hardly spell anatomy)?

[Mrs Pingu]

Bit of pelvis and hip innit?

[Mr Larrington]

Dunno, but the dog had first dibs on it.

Presumably abandoned by medical students.  Brought it home for barakta, obviously.

Those crazy medical students: they sure know how to make a joint.

[Kim]

What's this?  An ICE branded bidon in the gutter?

(click to show/hide)

I deduce from the sticker and the muck that it was dropped by a tricyclist with a power-hungry hearing aid, at some point before yesterday's thunderstorm. 

Very considerate of them to write my name on it like that...

[barakta]

I'm impressed Kim managed to find that waterbottle, but I guess we did know where it'd probably fallen off to within a few km.

Well that's me hooked on the further tales of Blodwyn Pig.

Haven't seen cold hard cash since… before Covid. One for the Colours in nature thread, commerce being the nature of man. Kerching!

Some of my own finds over the years:


Audax passing through


Nobody likes cheaters, Sisyphus


Someone's got to keep an eye on the chicken


Loveseat in the time of Corona


I call dibs (checks left hand) oh, that's why it felt cold
