Scottish Word of the Week Feb, 9, 2010
Wondering how the kitty got on top of the door? Didn't fall out of the window. Climbed up the wall, but I didn't get the camera out in time. The cat doesn't even live there lol, it lives next door. A lot of cats around here can climb the walls (can't find a old post on the topic), its not as rare as a lot of news places like to think it is.
This weeks theme for the photo of the week is flowers/hearts, chosen by Mary. There aren't any flowers around right now, and spring time can't come soon enough, and I don't really have a lot of hearts in the flat either. But here is a little trinket box with a heart on it and a claddagh ring. One of two that we bought when we were in New Zealand. Need to tie string around the ring so it doesn't fall off.This weeks word:
1. ingin
Answer to last weeks word:
1. to rax is stretching a part of the body, or to sprain a body part
Wow, cats can climb so high, they need need lives!!!
ReplyDeleteVery appropriate trinkets for the theme.
Autumn can't come quickly enough for me!!!
Ooooh, I don't know all these Scottish words - we speak a little differently up here in the Hebrides :)
ReplyDeleteCats make excellent climbers.
ReplyDeleteNice pics! I didn't have a lot of hearts around my house either so I went for a nature heart instead. I have a claddagh cross that I love.
ohh a climbing wall cat, cool. I like your Scottish word of the week. It's good to learn another "language"..
ReplyDeleteCats are too funny... I like the light in that pic...
ReplyDeleteAnd how does the cat get down?!?
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty box and ring.
Ingin? Again?
Ingin...not a kowboy.
ReplyDeleteI'm chuckling over Leslie's comment.
ReplyDeleteBut I love that box, was it a Valentine gift?
I had never heard of a cat climbing a wall...curtains maybe but not the wall. Neat picture!
cindy, i keep forgetting the seasons are the opposite there :) but Autumn would be nice, not too cold or too hot
ReplyDeletealison, and there is such a huge difference in how some scottish words are pronounced in different counties.
thanks serena :)
linda, usually falls ;p actually no, just climbs back down backwards :)
LOL leslie :D
mary, it made me laugh too :) no I bought the box at a dollar store I was working at, I think I paid 70 cents for it at the time. first time I saw one of the cats climbing the walls I thought I was seeing things
