how very beautiful

Moley is quiet but the central character and very thoughtful ~ that sounds about right to me.

and out of all of them is moley who is the most interested in the others ~ more of a people person ~ or is that animal?

Clever photo, P! Moody and interesting.

15 May, 2012

 

How nice :)
Ah yes I think he may be Moley too! DEfinitely not Mr Rat!

15 May, 2012

 

Water rat is nice in the book, very efficient too but i dont like rats otherwise.

15 May, 2012

 

Oh well yeah i guess..but Moley kinda suits him eh?

15 May, 2012

15 May, 2012

Never read it....Hated Toad

15 May, 2012

 

toad was not nice at all but moley in particular was, ratty too in his own way.

we had it read to us in school when i was 10, i never forgot it.

15 May, 2012

 

How could you hate TOad if you havent read it! tsk tsk!

15 May, 2012

 

he was everything nasty pixi ~ i cant blame you pimms

15 May, 2012

 

yes i know ;)

15 May, 2012

 

You couldn't NOT know about Mr Toad, Pixi, even if you'd never read the book . . . his character is that famous! Conceited and thoughtless - Poop poop!

Ooops, by the way, very artistic photo Pimm's :))

We had a holiday next to a stream in France last year where we were convinced that all the characters from Wind in the Willows lived in the bank, it was a daily ritual to watch Ratty going about his business ,they are very regular creatures doing the same things at the same time of the day ....
Your photo is the reason our son spends so many week-ends in the Lake district Pp :)

A very flawed character, Mr Toad - means well, but never really comes out of his own little world. Probably over-compensating for a dreadful inferiority complex by all his boasting and egoism...blah, blah, blah!
I definitely think Pims is a Moley character. Have you whitewashed your burrow rececntly, Pims, when you should have been out in the sunshine "Simply messing about in boats!"?
This is a lovely picture, P. Very peaceful, very enticing.

Another beautiful photo Pimps:)

15 May, 2012

 

nice pic Pims, it would make a lovely painting...

15 May, 2012

 

Yes it would!
