Hi Jack

A beautiful sunny day here  :)  A bit on the chilly side but Barbs & I had a lovely walk this morning.

I've been searching for something to try & fox you & get my own back :laugh: 
It's a book published quite recently - set in the 1930's.

#6 #5 #1 #5 #4



Position is important.

      

Jesus and Moses were teeing off on a 149 yard par 3, with a water hazard in front of the green.
Jesus pulled out his wedge and hit his first ball into the water;
"I don't understand", he said, "I saw Cameron Smith hit a wedge to the green on this same hole yesterday!"
Again he dropped a ball on the ground and repeated the shot with the same results...
Moses said,"Get a longer iron or you'll never make it across"
Jesus dropped another ball to the ground and repeated the swing dropping the third ball in the water short of the green.
"That was my last ball!" Jesus remarked as he walked across the water fishing for his lost balls.
A foursome approached the green and one man shouted, "Who does he think he is, Jesus Christ?"
Moses replied, "He thinks he Cameron Smith"

Leave you with a silly joke ;D  The tea wont make itself you know!

Hi Pen,

Mona Mona,

If my way of doing a word count would have been #6 5 1 #5 #4 indefinite article not pictured, I think I might not have been foxed.  >:D

Hi Jack

It's a bit grey and dreary here today and threatening rain soon.  I've been for my constitutional which has inspired a rebus &, hopefully, I can redeem myself :laugh:

It's a film from the 1970's.

1 #4 2 #3 #6 #4


Please pretend it's all on one line.  Position is important.

          

Someone just called my phone, sneezed and then hung up.
I’m getting sick and tired of these cold calls!

Hi Pen,

You have redeeemed yourself.  I have always liked Anthony Quinn.

Dusty went home yesterday.


This morning Bonnie is looking for lots of attention so this will be a quiche. :D  I will report later in the day.


Here is a memory test.  How many of these can you remember?

Hi again Pen,

Dusty had a good explore of his new home.  He was a bit puzzled by it but he will soon realise it is not just a temporary stopover.   He has had a lot of changes and temporary homes this year.

His new home is rather magnificent.   It is quite a bit larger than our place.  So much so that when we got home, our place felt like a doll house.  It has great surroundings. There is a house on either side, but out the back there are no houses between it and the bay, although tall trees have been planted to accommodate a koala colony which means you can't see the bay.  It is very quiet and one of their neighbours has told them the major noise nuisance is that of copulating koalas at times of the year. There are sport grounds within a couple of hundred metres and a walking/bike path that runs for kilometres along the bay.

One of the features of the house would appeal to you. There is a small room under the stairs where people can hide from the lightning and thunder.

A thousand apologies.   It certainly wasn't deliberate.  I had to put a bit of thought into it to remember what the answer was.

Hi Jack

Dusty's new home sounds rather wonderful & in a great location :)  I'm very jealous of the room under the stairs :laugh:  If I remember from the pictures you sent your gaffe isn't exactly small!  Mind you I don't think you'd want it too big anyway.  That just means more housework >:D

My compliments on a cracking rebus :)  Just devilish enough to be challenging without being impossible. 

I'm going to start a rebus but heaven only knows if I'll get to the end of it!  It's bedlam here at the moment.  Hoping it'll quieted down in a little while.

Mines an old fashioned who dunnit

9 (#5 + #4) 7 (#4 + #3)


Please change the first letter of the gent in the second picture.  You need the man who is perched in the last picture & then use the last three letters.  All on one line.  I suspect you'll find it a bit too easy peasy.

           

So sorry - know it's my childish sense of humour but that last one made me giggle ;D   I'll try acting my age instead of my shoe size!

Just over an hour & it's home time hurrah!  Been bedlam all day :o

Hi Pen,

Our gaffe is more than adequate for two people and a dog but it proved quite a squeeze for 4 adults, 2 boys and 2 dogs.

I am still struggling with your rebus?   Anybody else solved it?

Sorry Jack I should have given you a bit more to go on. It's a book by a prolific English  author. She was born in the late 19th century.
You're looking for the colour in the colour in the third picture.
Need matchsticks  :-Y
