We had a 5 gallon igloo water cooler. Mom would freeze big blocks of ice, put them in the cooler, cover them with water, and put it out in the garage. Every kid in the neighborhood brought a cup to use. 10 of us drank 5 gallons of water a day during the summer.
The caption says it’s the smallest house in Wales
Google says the smallest house in Great Britain.
I don’t see how either could be true… Maybe it depends on how you define “house”, cos I’ve seen dwellings made out of packing crates.
In any case, it’s in Conway, Wales. I read that this picture was taken in 1912, and shows the caretaker and her children, but other sites say it’s been empty since 1910.
It’s not abandoned, though… it’s been a tourist attraction most of the time since.
Do you mean because of the clouds and the rainbows off of the edge of the earth? Don’t sail too far that way, they’re just put there to lure you over the edge. 🙂

“Nyaawwww! You’re not gonna make me get up, are you?”

Teamwork.
Hose water! The finest vintage!
I can still remember that taste of hot rubber.
I didn’t like it… I wanted to go in the house for a glass of water instead.
My Dad would say “It’s not gonna kill you”.
Who knows, actually.
But so far I’m still here

Seems like an awfully wide footprint for its length. Was the kid part duck?
I think you might be looking at just the ball of the foot.
The heel print is faint, but to me, it looks like a normal foot length away from the toes… a bit wide cos it’s a child’s foot

Yes! Yes they are!
No! No they’re not!

That’s a spectacular nose job!

I bet he smells some Basil.
Rathbone? or Rathbasset?
Nope. The mouse detective.

They didn’t do a very good job of hiding that mother!

I bet it’s got something to do with Perrier…
It appears to make the guys’ eyes roll up in their heads.
Maybe that’s what passes for suave sophistication?
or gas…
All them good-looking girls (including the apparent wardrobe malfunction in the center) and they’re staring at the leaky bottle-cap?
Meanwhile some of the people in the background are very oddly drawn…
I was fixated on figuring out a woman in the center with a strange combination of low decolletage and impossible arms.

It’s wonderful to play for an appreciative audience.
I keep seeing shorts on YouTube of a fellow who plays guitar for all sorts of animals, many in wildlife preserves… Lions, elephants, horses…
They’re amazingly attentive.
Well, music hath charms . . .

Been there..done that and for the exact same reason..a manhole cover.
My hip took a proper good scraping from the asphalt.

Any flat-earthers here? Just can’t argue with reality…

Not quite.
Oops! how did I do that?
Yup.
Yes
I know!
Pieces 2, 5 and 7 are pretty much identical as are 1,4, 6 and 9…. Also 3 and 8.
But the piece we’re looking for has 2 inward notches, or whatever you call them, and only one of the loose pieces has more than one… #10.
Worse yet, all the wrong pieces have at least one straight edge!
It seems weird that there’s no variation, no slightly different placement of any shape, no piece with two lobes on one edge….
Like either AI designed it, with no understanding of puzzles, or maybe it’s for children, but children would see the same things.

What did I just say about an “appreciative audience?”

Somebody’s looking sheepish…

Now THAT’S a cool look for a basset hound! Seafaring beast.
