I've missed 'C' but I know what I'm going to do, I just have to remember to get the photo!
I can't seem to cope very well having to use the IPad for blogging but I guess it's a learning curve!!!
'T' is for tasty tiny tomatoes. I had some orange ones at one of my neighbour's in mind, but by the time I remembered to get a hoot they'd eaten them!
Anyhow, by the time I remembered I'd forgotten, John from next door had some coloring up. Not as tiny or as orange as the others but it fits the bill!
That should cover it!

Dy - C
For the theme of Where I Live with the letter C, I chose clouds. I think we have the most marvellous clouds here on the south coast of WA. Maybe the clouds are much the same everywhere else, but the fact that I notice them far more here than in the city, and also that the clouds are beautifully blended with sun and sea, I think they are wonderful and epitomise where I live.
For School Days I chose crayons. I confess I never like colouring in whilst in lower primary school and tended to race through it and consequently used to get into trouble for having messy work! So phooey on crayons! :-)

Stephs contibution - for 'C' Schooldays and Where I live.
For schooldays I was going to do a pic of me as I was House Captain.
After a scratch about I was unable to find an appropriate photo of me
or my house badge which I still have somewhere.
So change of plan and here is one of the girls school councillor badges
- same as prefects.
And where I live - I live on the Corner of the Cul-de-sac and here is the sign
on the corner for Honeysuckle Place and our house on the
corner of the cul-de-sac number 20.

SCATTERDAYS 'T"
is for
TASTY and TINY
Tonight my TEA was TASTY. We had a delicious Bread and Butter pudding. Haven't made one for ages, but it was enjoyed by all three of us - it disappeared in a Trice.
And then we followed up with a TASTY cup of herbal TEA
TINY was easy for me this week as we acquired a TINY TERRIER that we have called Alfie.

Scatterdays #4 - Penniedarlings 'C'.
C - Schooldays - Croydon Public is one of the 13 Schools I attended as a child, I was probably only here for a few months though. When my father went back into the Army after WW2, we moved around a great deal. During this time he often needed to be in Sydney for another Officers Training Course so we would move back into my Grandparents home in Strathfield and I would be taken to whichever School my Aunt or Uncle were teaching at, I notched up a lot of unmemorable schools in the late 1940's early 1950's.
C - Where I live - this had me flummoxed for a while, then I thought I'd go up to our local shops and photograph the Chemist... but it isn't called a 'Chemist', now it's called a Pharmacy! But silly me spotted these two eating places... which I should have remembered in the first place! Doh!
The Cooks Garden is an excellent Restaurant in the shop which was originally a Post Office.

The Corner Cafe is pretty dreadful, the reviews online are less than positive which I'm not surprised about I don't know anyone who shops there but look at the crowd!
All these photos were taken with 'Grab' the 'Where I live' photos were taken on an Election Day hence all the people in The Corner Cafe!

'C' is for...............
The topics for this week are :
Schooldays and Where I live.
Pondered long on this and decided I had made it very difficult for myself.
The only thing I could find for my Schooldays was this old photo of myself. With a stretch of the imagination I was able to turn myself into a Champion because the ribbon I am wearing was for the YMCA athletics championships. I was actually very proud of myself because up until that year I had never thought of myself as a runner - too short and chubby, but the chub had turned to muscle and I surprised everyone by coming second for state YMCA Championships.
I then ran at school and won the Open 100 metres, beating all the usual winners, much to their dismay.
Where I live was a lot easier and I had too many choices. Finally decided on the old cottage on our property. This old cottage was built well before our house which is over 120 years old. And the back wall of the old cottage was the front of the original old cottage that the first family lived in.
Then, having gotten all enthusiastic about old cottages, I drove around Lobethal and took photos of some of the old houses there - mostly of German origin..
