At least you've admitted it

Be off with you

I used to work in mental handicap hospitals years ago, nd there were people admitted in the early 1900s with the diagnosis of 'cretin' (which if you look it up was a real diagnosis, with particular physical and cognitive traits). There were also people with diagnosis (with somewhat less of a basis than cretinism) of 'feeble-minded' and 'imbecile'.

But this is a photography thread.

It's amazing to think that terms once used to describe unfortunates way back then are now only used to describe 3BM

I have so much to say on the above - but as you say this is a photo challenge plus I would probably get myself banned at the same time. * Deep breath...and rest *

Anyway, back to the matter. I went out on the S Downs today and here's my lowly efforts!

Another attempt from me:

En route to Ludlow yesterday there were loads of Narcissi in the verges at Cardington.

yep - bluebells are just starting to flower in places here in Cheshire now - mostly the Spanish variety (big strong/robust looking, comes in blue, pink or white) but I have see a few native ones just starting to show some colour over the last few days as well.

Finally found some tulips. Shortly after taking the photo my chain snapped. I'm now on the train having walked 12km to the nearest station.
