Special greetings to my English friends - do you still remember this one? Way back in the good old days in 1990; Germany won the championship, but England sang the better song ;-)
New Order - World in Motion (1990)
P.S.: I was always wondering why a football song talks about love - so I did some research. Here is what I found:
When the FA (English Football Association) heard "love's got the world in motion", they asked the band to replace "love's" with "we've". The band refused. "It's an anti-hooligan song", they said.
Looking at all the trouble everywhere around us these days, I'd wish there was more love among men.
Love's got the world in motion - without the world will stop turning.
I left my lawn run wild for "no mow May" and a fair few of these popped up. Lady's smock is another label - I love wildflower names.
I used my "new" used EF40mm f2.8 and my first impressions are - it's a cracker! Also my first post using the Raynox closeup thingy.

Took the 17/40mm lens to 40mm for this close in comp of the breakwater. Neat lighting from the Fort Armistead area.
We heard a dull thud this morning, and fearing the worst, I went onto the patio. There, lying on its back was this beautiful finch, breathing heavily and clearly very stunned. We picked him or her up, seeing a few feathers on one side of the head very scuffed from colliding with the kitchen window. One eye was closed shut, the other starting to open. About twenty minutes later and a couple of comfort stops on Wendy's hand, all seemed back to almost normal. Glad I had the D300 to hand!

Lisa is a dilute (or muted) calico, a very rare color pattern. Only one in every 1,000 cats is born a standard calico and dilute calico cats are even rarer. The internet also says they can be expensive, costing between $400 and $2,000. I got Lisa for free, however, adopting her and her brother, Bart, through www.realcruzancats.org.
