  • RELACA and Pot

    What?

    Well, if you take your camera to the garden centre (in search of bulbs apparently), you might come back with some odd ball pictures like these:



    Relaca: Two sets of letters for sale. One set spells Relax and the other spells Calm. I wonder if you are allowed to mix and match?


    And here's a nice pot in some nice sunlight. Plain and simple.

    Ha ha! They had similar letters at our garden centre a while back. I never thought of photographing, I was too busy re-arranging them to make a rude word and I can't even remember what it was now!

    With those distict bands of light and shade enhancing the earthy textures of the pot, No 2 reminds me of the slot canyons in Arizona.

          I was trying to work out what rude words you could spell.
          It's the image that's important, not the tools used to make it.

              Ah, perhaps I should clarify. Our garden centre had similar letters as in concept, i.e. they were decorative, free-standing and spelt homely, soothing type words. However, they were different words (annoyingly I cannot remember which) but I do remember rather childishly re-arranging two letters from one word with two letters from another to spell "Fart." Having seen Pete's picture I now wish I'd thought to take a photograph rather than hurry away sniggering!

                A long time ago our works canteen used to have the menu on a board with individual plastic letters slotted into it to spell out our choice of gourmet delights (slight exaggeration for dramatic purposes). It was completely unprotected as employees in financial services wouldn't do anything naughty, would we. This was all very well until one day the pudding choice was gooseberry fool or rhubarb tart.

                  I haven't come up with anything so I've got SWMBO working on it.

                    My drinking mate an myself frequented the perfect village pub in north Hampshire from 1999 to 2008: (Aah. The Plough at Ashmansworth.
                    Don't bother going looking for it. It closed, which was a real shame).
