Hoppo Bumpo (n): A children's game. Played by folding one's arms and hopping on one leg. Aim is to bump opponents, so that they lose their balance. Last person standing wins.
Charming indeed! What a lovely picnic they were having. Aren't the images so sweet and somehow soothing? I know that smell you mean too, takes me right back xo
I like the look of any jam tart. Especially lemon ones made with real lemon butter which should always be licked off before polishing off the pastry. Just like the moo cow does.
Oh! That wee calf & the l'elephant (that's little elephant for those not in the know... you know, those who, erm, aren't me...)... A D O R A B L E.
