Personality piece: outside dull and prickly, inside filled with hope and vitality.
By Ibilisi at TLKFAA. This was done back in 2001, but I'm glad I still have these cos they mean a lot to me :) It was one of my radiohead-inspired outlander lions, Optimistic.

Day 118
16th February 2011
Arrived in the UK last night to rain, not surprising for February really but quite disappointing after a few days of crisp but dry days in France! Stayed over at Mum and Dad's last night to save us driving back to the West that evening and managed to fit in a wonder round Dad's garden checking for signs of spring before we headed back home.
Dad always has these carpets of snowdrops under the Magnolia in his garden, so pretty and uplifting when they arrive! Makes you feel so happy!
Then I remember that the arrival of Spring means that we're now in the season that baby number 2 is going to arrive in, which quite frankly freaks me out. LOL
ok, he's the biggest grass hopper Ive ever seen!
That is my hand behind him. He was a good 5 inches long!
