Animal, vegetable or mineral?...

...There's a phrase that reminds me of Christmas days past!
(Those days when Santa brought an orange, a shiny new penny and some nuts.
I don't know why that excited me, I didn't even like nuts then).

'Goo'gle was a word which probably would have been used then to describe the above image.

I don't really know what it is; it is gloopily draping itself around the branch of a local tree.
I'll look it up tomorrow when I have time.

The decorator is coming this week, to finish off the new room (we're not quite done yet). So the evenings are being spent (horrors... cobwebby horrors) cleaning the behinds (so to speak) and the tops of cupboards.

My fingers are wrinkled as I type.
The kind of wrinkled they get after having been in a swimming pool (or the bath) for too long...
Or in hot cleaning solution...Eughhh.

But won't it be nice when it's all clean and spruce?
And when I'm back to looking up interesting stuff as I find it :-)
