You might be forgiven for thinking that I’d overshot the road and ended up in the pond! In actual fact I spotted this bicycle sitting elegantly in the water as I cycled past this morning. It has been carefully placed in situ and I just had to stop and take a photo.
Monique has also been decorating her garden and has added a funky chicken next to her plastic topiary ball. It's all very jolly in this part of the world.
Lovely summer colours. I do not like statues in home gardens. I prefer that rooster to snow white and the seven dwarves. :)

Big garden statues are a bit pretentious unless you live in a stately home.
DeleteLike the chicken, adds a seasonal touch of colour ! I'm not keen on statues either, but we do have a very superior stone Egyptian cat, (which we transported all the way from the UK), sitting on the terrace.
ReplyDeleteHave you decided what colour you'll paint your bike!!
Bright red I think.
DeleteWe have many bikes of this nature around here, left after the Tour of Britain passed this way last year, and many gaily painted bikes still remain in hedgerows and on fences. I like the cockerel. I like obscure colourful objects and had a series of pots "planted" with barbie dolls at my previous house in amongst the tomato plants.
ReplyDeleteI remember the photo of your planted barbies.
Deletelooks like there is plenty of sunshine. Love the rooster, not so keen on the bike. Not at all fussed on statues in the garden but a little garden art in amongst the flowers in the garden can add a bit of interest sometimes. Sounds like you are happy to be back ??
ReplyDeleteVery happy to be back Helsie. I guess it's the place we call home.
DeleteNo statues here, but I do have a Greek Urn. What's a Greek urn? About......
ReplyDeleteAbout half they used to
DeleteBoom boom!
