Jeudi Journal Italy or Greece

Well, I don't know my Greek from my Roman normally.  Should be able to tell what kind of columns they are as we studied those at college but that was a century ago.  To be honest I thought this was Rome and not somewhere in Greece but I did hope it was a Greek set of stamps.  Chas studied Latin at school so he knew it was definitely Roman figures etc that I was using.  Shucks!

Wendy and I are in a Museum as the weather has turned a little showery and I am appalled at the scantily dressed statues that are about.  I actually thought that was a man sat on the stool and remarked to Wendy about his headgear.  She pointed out that the translucent clothing left her in no doubt whatsoever that this was a woman (I won't say "lady").


The two figures on the left are obviously Dylusion stamps but the others are all Non Sequitur.  Gosh I have had those years and some still had the backing on from when I put them on EZmount.  Shows how much I have used this particular set.

The background is my new Slate Grey Dylusion paint which I intend to use with pink at some time as I love to see grey and pink together. Maybe a bit dull here, especially on the RH side with the figures in the Museum.  Ah well - now we have to leave as we are off somewhere else next week.

Love this, but on the first reading I said " I didn't say that to Neet" Then I clicked, fabulous idea. Am I really that much shorter than you ??
See you in Italy next week.

I'm loving this trip you are taking. I think you have a very imaginative mind.

I wish I had visited sooner because I really feel bad when Bleubeard berates me for not visiting more often. He appreciates you and all the attention you give him. I promise to TRY to drop by more often in the future (if for no other reason than to get Bleubeard off my case -grin)

Oh Neet! This really made me smile! As for the columns - it's all Greek to me! Hugs, Chrisx
