Garden Photos Event Final Warning

 
the House of
I N F O M A N I A C
Garden Photos Event
 
opens on 1st November,
but not before we've hosed down and cleared up after Hallowe'en's

Terrifying Triffidery

So, for those of you taking part, please email me your photos by Saturday 28th October* (my blog's email address is in my Blogger profile on top of the Sideboard on the right there).  Everyone is welcome, from Infomaniac Bitches of yore, to newcomers, friends-of-friends, and lurkers.  More information can be found in the previous post, but if you have any questions, please ask away in the comments.

Oh, for fu-  Ignore Bitey, look at the lovely blue cornflowers.

☙❧

* But, because I am a soft touch, as long as some of you send in your photos by then, the rest of you lallygaggers can have a bit longer.  But not much longer, mind!  I have things to do, and I don't want to be curating photos all the way through November.
(I'll leave it up to you to decide who's going to be in my good books by getting their photos in on time, and who will earn under-my-breath mutterings and a spectacular eye roll come 29th October.  Or later.  Almost certainly later.)
 

See you all next week!

    1. Fear not! Now that you've handed your homework in, you can go and play.

  2. I should have them in on time. But if not, I will use my other wiles and talents to take care of you and calm that savage "beast". Just wear loose pants in the meantime.

    Course with being gone, I will miss the first few posts of the events what with being gone and not taking the laptop. Damn it.

    1. I have your photos safely in my clutches now, Maddie. Including the one of your undulating, moonlit grounds. At least, that's what I think it is...?

      And: Happy birthday!

  4. I am having a mare with EVERYTHING. But I imagine that you would like to see some strawberries grown outside in October, so I will do my best.

    2. Your mare seems to have turned into a dream. Although the birds can have the strawberries!

      And, Maddie, I might have spied a glimpse of pink amongst Ms Scarlet's photos...

  6. I've got nothing, sweetpea! It's a long story, but I'm hoping that since I've made this public announcement that I will not be submitting any photos at this time, you will continue to look favorably upon me as one of your loyal and devoted followers, dearest friend and exemplary blogger of note. xoxox

    1. Nothing, my "loyal and devoted follower, dearest friend and exemplary blogger of note"? Nothing/??
      What about your house plants? Don't make me go scouring through your blog again for glimpses and snippets!

    2. "dearest friend and exemplary blogger of note" <---- that's all about YOU!! xoxo

    3. P.S. I've just scoured through the last year on your blog, and the closest I could find to houseplants were two small plastic, palm trees outside BGM's Calico Critter house. Bah!

  7. I am busy lallygagging at the moment but have got my man on the case so the photos from these Infomaniac Bitches should be with you on time.
    Love the cornflower and Bitey.

  8. Well, Don't I feel like and overachiever now. I saw this post and had promptly pulled it together only to come back now and comment. You can sacrifice me first if it gives others time to pull themselves together. Though I loathe to admit I do have a bit of a hero complex...an anti-hero that is.

    1. Your offer of sacrifice means a lot - and you won't be alone as, fortunately, four or five more Blogorati have also seen sense and managed to get some photos in before the weekend.

      P.S. The anti-heroes are almost always a lot more interesting!

  10. I don't garden, but only to see the work of art that all you people with talent have. Maybe one day I'll have a green thumb. Or a husband who gardens.

    1. Talent? Well, yes, there is definitely some talent here, but others - like me - rely on luck!
      There's still time for you to join us - do you still have those houseplants?

    This may be interesting for you, C&H related.

    1. As much as I want to say absolutely not, there is precedent in the form of dear LX's entry back in 2017...

  13. Thank you for the extra time allowance...first a defunct modem and now my camera is playing silly buggers.(Actually, I think it's more to do with changes to my photo system, but I've scraped together a few pics...)

    1. Thank you, Dinah! Your photos are now safely ensconced in a file waiting for me to pop them into a blog post for all to gawp at.

Tickle my fancy, why don't you?
