Box Trees, Les Jardins de Marqueyssac, Dordogne, France

Cypress Trees, Retiro Park, Madrid

Husband being an arse in a tree, somewhere in the Cotswolds

The theme for this week’s Gallery is, funnily enough, Trees. To see more, take a walk though the arboretum at Tara’s blog.

    I liked the Cotswold shot. 'Cos that is definitely something I'd do.

    How do they do that??? (Not the husband one clearly – I'm more than familiar with that face!)

    Gosh hard choice. I prefer 1 over 2 but that means picking France over Spain ( or Cyprus!) May have to just go with the arse to protect me from guilt of prefering something French!!

    Jenny – I loved the shape they have been sculpted into.

    Steve – I thought you might!

    Vicky and Jfb57 – thanks, men are silly, are they not?

    PLanb – I suspect it takes a lot of work to keep them clipped to that shape.

    Kelloggsville – if in doubt, go with the arse haha!

    All fab photos but I'm plumping for the one with your husband being an arse 😀

    Are those real trees? Certainly the last one looks doctored.

    Fantastic shapes! Yes, this includes your hubby!! ;o)

    Kath and SAHMLovingit – he'll be so pleased!

    Troy – *groans* 😉

    Funky W – He'll be even more pleased!

    The Moiderer – it's great having a husband who is happy to be blog fodder.

    Husband being an arse, definitely!! Mind you, the cypress trees are very attractive.

    The cypress trees look unreal, don't they? What a labour of love!

  18. Kate Sutton Reply
    16/03/2011 at 6:00 pm

    They look like paintings – apart from the husband being an arse one which, I think, has to be my favourite! 🙂

    Ooh those are just calling out to be touched don't you think? like sculptures……and obviously only pictures 1 and 2…picture 3 looks like something from Dr Who is attacking your man……what an accommodating husband you have Trish.

    Coffee curls, CJ and Kate – two more votes for the husband!

    Sarah – you're right,it must take a lot of TLC.

    Libby – oh I dunno, Libby, I think number 3 is crying out to be touched too!;-) Or maybe he's just a bit touched.

    Northern Mum – ah you know a good tree when you see one.

    The ones in the Dordogne remind me of brains. I do like the ones in Madrid but my favourite is the last one, definitely!

    Got to be the one somewhere in the Cotswolds that's taken a bit of a liking to your husband…

    Wylye Girl and Lottie – My husband is quite delighted everyone has taken a liking to this photo. I've yet to tell him we're laughing at him. He doesn't mind really.
