Where's Nifty?! #2

Levina de Ruijter wrote in post #18209159
By all means, take him with you, Pieter! Nifty likes to travel as much as anyone!

Yes, as Levina has said..

Cool. Not sure how I repost the list without destroying the colors. Joayne, could you add me after Levina. I'll probably start travelling somewhere in June or July. I hope this works out planning wise for the hosts before me?

I should add that at this time I don't have a planning for my trip yet, I'll probably be gone for two upto 6 months I guess..

At present we would like anyone wishing to host have at least a 200 post count or have been active on POTN for a year. Hopefully, this will reduce the number of people that do not participate in a timely manner, or "forget" to move Nifty on to the next host, or simply don't care.

* Though, this doesn't seem to alter the fact that people tend to forget to send Nifty on and tend to post very little... with some exceptions! To sign up to be a host, please copy the list completely, add your name to the bottom of the sub-list that is in your area of the world, paste the entire list into a new post with your name added.


Again, if you are near the top of the USA list James (bk2life) is ready to move Nifty along. Please contact him..

Sorry I haven't posted yet. Busy combined with our first cold/snow...
Bas

Great set of photos there, Paul. Love the one of Sophie on her bridge - precious!

I've been pretty busy (did a wedding on Saturday) so haven't had ENifty out recently or been on POTN much. I hope to catch up this coming week. Are you ready for ENifty now, Levina? I've told him he's going on a long journey in the summer and he's very excited.

ENifty here - Mam said I have to post my photos here as I'm so behind.

We had our first snow at sea level in mid-November which is quite early. It wasn't very deep and it didn't last long but it was a bit of a novelty. Here's the field just outside the house.

Of course Dopey was wanting his food as usual. He runs up the field when Mam shouts his name. The other sheep follow him for a bit but they are not tame and have not latched on to the fact that he gets fed, so he eats his oats and lamb pellets undisturbed.

We took this while Dopey was eating. It was just after the super-moon which was still hanging in the sky if a bit diminished. You can see the other sheep stopped following Dopey.

Mam's still doing her 5km walk/run every day so if she doesn't go early (when it's now dark) she take me with her. You can see most of the snow has melted already except on the hill tops.

The mail box has been painted recently so is very bright in the sunshine. The colour is called 'pillar-box red' as all mail boxes in Britain are painted this colour. This one is pretty old and has had so many coats of paint you can hardly read the raised lettering on it!

Lovely images, Annie! Love Dopey and the red mail box

Are you ready for ENifty now, Levina?

Absolutely, Annie. Looking forward to receiving him again.
Love the images. Your landscapes are so great. Places you can breathe in! I'm going to miss seeing those, especially since you photograph them so well.
The sheep are cute! Not too smart obviously, as your story demonstrates once more, but cute.

Great shots everyone! Keep up the great work. As to the list, it seems a bit short. What happened to bk2life And Tadrscin? I don't see them on the list.

Tadrscin sent nifty to me..

Thank you Renata, joayne, Levina and Anne.

Hi Cameraman, I've had Nifty for a while but it'll soon be time to move it on and you will have Nifty at the ready for the new year. I'd like Nifty to meet my three sons. Richard, the youngest,
gets out of the Army on December 20 for good after 7 years and all three boys will be here for Christmas. I'll send Nifty to you so you'll have it by New Year's Eve.

Today, Nifty prefers a more comfortable venue.

Here's an old Gibson J45 with a "sunburst" finish. Looks like a fireburst to me

Paul, that Gibson is gorgeous! I wish I had one. Mine is just an ordinary crappy old guitar.
Enjoy your boys over Christmas! I can't even imagine how exciting it's going to be for you and your family

They have both had a Nifty and have moved them on, so they are no longer on the list...

ENifty is off on his way to Levina. (He may take a bit longer to get there due to the Christmas rush.)

And again Notifications missed this one!
Thanks very much, Annie. Looking forward to seeing ENifty again!

I also want to say that I think you were a wonderful Nifty host. You live in a beautiful part of the world and your images do justice to that beauty. I enjoyed them very much.

What's a "rush" in Applecross?
