Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a blue day at Color my World Daily and we celebrate clothes pegs (or clothespins if you are in Canada… I had to do a Google search for the theme) at Looking close on Friday.
I had those tiny clothes pegs or clothespins forever, so it is a perfect time to use them in a picture. As a laundry expert (or so I like to think), clothes pegs should have no secrets for me… Unfortunately most of the time I use a dryer so my clothes pegs are rather useless now… But I really loved the colors of those tiny clothes pegs so I bought them… The tiny red clothespin is about 3cm and the other very old one is a normal size clothespin.
I hope you will like it !! See you later my friends !!
Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!
While standing still in a traffic jam with our van, I made this clothes peg in love for Smile on Saturday
Maybe you like it ...or maybe not ;-)
Happy Smile on Saturday
Plenty of semaphore and locomotive assets on display at Peak Forest in this shot which hasn't previously seen the light of day.
The camera time says 5.12am but, given a more relaxed approach about changing it back then, it might just be an hour later. Either way it was pretty early and the morning mist still hadn't lifted.
I didn't ID the number of the Shed disappearing towards Great Rocks but one of the two Tugs in the frame is 60010, and the Shed at far right is 66009.
The signalman can be seen standing in the box, probably waiting to throw the levers back.
Commenting off, thanks.

La iglesia arciprestal de la Asunción de Nuestra Señora de Pego es el más importante templo católico de esta localidad, de estilo renacentista, construida en el siglo xvi sobre las ruinas de otra iglesia más pequeña, realizada a su vez sobre los restos de la mezquita de Uxola.
I have my washing on a clothes horse indoors as weather is unpredictable. Mind you it was lovely yesterday and beautiful sunshine streaming into my kitchen. I couldn’t resist this shot as the green of the peg was illuminated by the sun.
MM the small peg is just 4cm long the smaller peg is 3cm long total of both pegs in the shot is 6.3cm.
Crazy Tuesday theme pegs
If anyone is interested I did an entire series with these pegs. Feel free to view them on my photo-stream.
Thank you everyone for your kind comments and favs. All are greatly appreciated! HCT
Macro Mondays 'junk drawer' theme.
I don't have much of a junk drawer anymore as after a huge clear out a couple of years ago I now try not to keep stuff that 'might be useful one day'. However I did find these mini pegs, once used for pegging Christmas cards to string.
The image measures 2.5" in width>
I don't know about you, but pegs were like socks here, they kept disappearing. We use these stainless steel ones these days, they last forever and don't rust. Must be better for the environment I guess.
There is a big bonus with these ones as opposed to the old, coloured plastic ones - you don't have to match the same colour pegs for any given piece of washing, preferably the same colour as the item of washing if possible. You just can't have 2 different coloured pegs on the same piece of washing, it's simply wrong! Or is it just me who is OCD like that? And don't get me started on stacking the dishwasher, suffice to say that if my wife stacks it, I unstack and restack ........... ;)
These guys still aren't lawn mower-proof unfortunately and I suspect that was the fate of the old plastic and wood ones.
Have a great new week everyone!
On close examination of several pics from this encounter, it appears that this young male has an old injury to it's right leg
The curlew is a bird which is highly skilled in avoiding yours truly.
So it was a nice surprise to get a very close encounter, with the bird happily chattering away without concern.
Numbers of this stunning bird are sadly on the decline, so it was nice to see them doing well locally.
The Eurasian Curlew is classified as Near Threatened on the global IUCN Red List. In the UK, it is on the Red List of Birds of Conservation Concern—the highest conservation priority. The UK breeding population is suffering severe declines, with extinction predicted in Wales by the early 2030s without intervention.
