WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

Yesterday I have got a parcel from Scotland from Caledonia. She had asked : "What is the Gaelic name for Edinburgh and what does it mean? and for once I could answer ! Dùn Èideann. The Burgh element means “fortress” and is akin to the German word “Burg” Edin was never translated ! For the first time in my life I won something ! A lovely Teddy Bear dressed as a Scott, along with a pin badge, a book mark and a fridge magnet. I never had a Teddy bear in my whole life not even as a child !

Thank you so much Caledonia !!!



This is Rosie supposed to move and sniff at the Teddybear, but she decided to pose only !



And here you can see all the gifts in detail.

  8. I suppose one of those peole on their own wouldn't be too bad but altogether it's like the modern day Adams family! . . lol

  9. Yuck! The hairy back one and the arm in mouth are particularly bad!

  10. Wonder woman - the later years? Great pics. I like the guy with the number shaved in his hairy back. I could never do that - my back just isn't that hairy! Happy WW

    Well, almost. I love the cat ones. I had four cats myself, but sadly as of about a month ago, I'm down to three. I tend to post a bit of cat photo's too.

    They're my other babies! I'll be back and may have to get in ont the Tuesday cat thing....

  19. Congratulations on your win! That's awesome. Nothing like getting parcels, either.

    Wonder Woman about knocked me off my chair. I wish I could walk with such confidence!

  20. I like the tattoo in the ear and the computer directions tattooed on the guys arm - why on earth anyone would do that is beyond me, but then again look at the last one and I guess anything goes.

    ReplyDelete
  21. You should know by NOW that cats never perform when you want them too! LOL!

    Your WW's definitely leave me speechless today! Just shakin' my head....

  24. Je suis émerveillée à la vue de tous les cadeaux que vous avez reçus Rosie et toi! Mais ce n'est pas un hasard! Vous êtes toutes les deux, deux figures importantes sur le net! Incontournables! Quand on est une bloggeuse aussi active que toi on récolte les fruits de toutes les bonnes choses qu'on a semées! Je t'envie beaucoup! Moi je suis éreintée et je me demande pourquoi j'ai choisi l'enseignement! J'en avais une belle idée mais les conditions sont difficiles! Bientôt les vac dans un mois! Je pourrais consacrer plus de temps à ma nouvelle passion! blog, blog!

  25. I can only think of the pain endured to get that. The infection, and the fact that it never comes off.

  30. Congratulations on winning your Teddy bear. How great. Did you talk to Rosie about not participating properly in the video. You are the director and she was supposed to act. Hope you had a great WW. :)

    The other pictures are so funny!
