Wappit
We have been away in Wales.
On narrow gauge railway trains.
Such as this one.
To make the weekend slightly less train-heavy, we went to Bodnant Gardens this morning.
They were lovely. To my mind, even more lovely than trains. But it's a matter of taste.
On re-reading my previous post, I feel compelled (because I am a pedant) to point out that though "Go lights" may actually sound like a sentence (with the imperative verb "Go"), it actually isn't because "Go" is an adjective describing the lights. Just in case anyone thought I didn't know what a sentence is.
I do realise that no one thought about it for even an instant apart, possibly, from Fran.
I noticed us using various Scottish words over the last few days and jotted them down for your edification: stocious, perjink, drookit and shoogled. ( None of us was stocious or particularly perjink. We did get a bit drookit at one point. The trains shoogled. I trust that makes everything clear.)
Now I must go and do some piano practice because I didn't take the piano with us so couldn't do any while we were away. I feel a bit wappit, though.
Narrow gauge trains......what fun!
ReplyDeleteChe?
ReplyDeleteI know what stocius is....sadly.
ReplyDeleteOh fun -- you had a getaway! I thought maybe something was up, due to your absence. I trust you left the catlets in good hands. ;-D
ReplyDeleteI want to take a trip on a steam engine train, we've looked every where for one. I want it to be an overnight trip. Your train looks great.
