Fun Monday # 71 My Walls!

Jan of the prytz family is setting our assignment this week she says:

"The subject is walls. We all have walls of some sort. What I want to hear about and see, if you're going to show off your amazing photo skills, is what is on your walls, what color are your walls, what is special about them, what is your favorite or least favorite, is it inside or outside".

In some ways this week had been made very easy for me because a year ago (June 18th) we had a very similar topic Fun Mon # 21 What hangs on my walls. So I'm being really lazy and am resurrecting that post via the link. That means if you've seen what hangs on my walls before you can pass straight on by. Back then I was experimenting putting together a series of photos into a little video and it was well received at the time!
Now, when I started writing this post I had intended to stop right here, but then I though what else can I show you so I ran around the house and garden taking little snaps of the walls.
Having decided you have seen the internal walls I'm showing some of the outside...... You may remember our house was built in 1851 way before breeze block so we have stone walls that are slightly decorative at the front.
It's remarkable how seeds find their way into any little crevice and I found this growing in front garden (yard) wall.The back garden (yard) wall is brick, dull and uninteresting! Veranda (deck) just outside the kitchen door has a very boring looking wall as you can see!

I have shown glimpses of my bathroom before but I decided to show a picture of the double swag above the bath. All these tiles were made as they would have made back in Victorian times. It proved to be a time consuming and very costly process. I can't afford to change them even if I wanted to which I don't! I don't think the guy is making them anymore!

That's my lot for this week. I will visit as many of you as possible but I have a very busy few days before we head off on holiday on Thursday.
