Much better picture if you click on it (though a little soft-focus). Anyone know how I can get Blogger to show the pictures larger in the original post?

Are you back nearer civilisation, Doc, or still protecting endangered island pines?

Will these elephants ever forget us?

I know I said green is the new grey, but I NEVER expected you all to take me seriously!

Elmer is getting the herd ready for Christmas, the baubles are en route.

You lot have taken all the good ones, so all I'm left with is:

"Hey, Dad, I thought it was lemmings who jumped off cliffs, not limes!"

The Elephant's child asked: if that's the great grey greasy Limpopo out there, why are we green?

There'll be no place to hide.

are they Chamelephants or Elechameleons?

Anonymous said...

Don't know, but they are grey and green and part of the story.

Is it Darwin or is is it Kipling? What do we think about the stories?

Anonymous said...

Surely it's the great grey-green greasy Limpopo? Or is that the entire point and I've missed it?

I think they look like they're about to embark on an expedition, but I haven't put that into caption form.

It's the Elephant's child.

I know, I know the elephant's child well. No, what I meant was, isn't the precise colour of the river grey-green, 'cos then...never mind, it made sense in my head.

Guitou, I think they are Elechameleons, and as such may have to be elected Honorary OtherStuff Mascots.

My caption is: "Bloody satnav...we're supposed to be over there.."

zeph,
in fact I meant Elephameleons-fine mascots but why
they hold their trumps high in the air..? are they
inhaling chlorophyll to turn on greener?

Anonymous said...

Possibly the chlorophyll:) Or they may be calling for help :(

All this shocking elephantine Rorshach-ing recalls Lewis Carroll's "Sylvie and Bruno":
"He thought he saw an Elephant,
That practised on a fife:
He looked again, and found it was
A letter from his wife.
'At length I realize,' he said,
'The bitterness of life!'"

Not at all, Munni - I love those elephants!

Anonymous said...

Thanks for that munni - I have a soft even melting spot for Dumbo.

offsideintahiti said...

I dunno what Dumbo is on, but whatever it is, I'll have a pint of it. Maybe half a pint to begin with.


I went there once:

It was brilliant. Sadly, it was before the age of digital cameras, so I can't post my own pictures.
