Rose Cottage
Posted by Linerberry (Christchurch, New Zealand) on 12 January 2009 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.
This is the little sleep out in my back garden. The roses have just shot up and look beauitiful.
Ps Am3 does not seem to let me post for the 13th so i am sorry if i miss your blogs!
Don't forget****** "Silly Tuesday" ******where you can post anything that is silly, funny, daft or just makes you laugh!!!
For those of you that don't know the origin of Silly Tuesday here is a bit if a run down....It started on this day. My thoughts were as follows......
Monday is the start of the week...
Wednesday is the middle of the week.....
Thursday is nearly Friday and Friday is the start of the weekend:-)
I know some people work weekends as I am one of them:-)
But its still the weekend BUT......
What is Tuesday???? Its just a Silly Day that means nothing....so thats where ST came from:-)
Join in the Silliness:-)
Love Silly Mama:-)
If you post on ST then leave a link on my page then others get to see your silliness:-)

The campaign in a beautiful nature. It's very beautiful, the composition very good, but I love some charm ...

@Siam: Lovely to see your work again Siam:-)
@Elena Kotrotsou: Thank you, I was suprised at how tall they were:-)
@zOOm: Thank you Flo, I have yet to tidy it up but I hope to get a bed in there with tv and facilities for making drinks, will be good in the summer for friends so stay:-)

Looks delightful.
When you say 'sleep out' does that mean a spare bedroom or a detached cottage or what?
12 Jan 2009 10:54am
@grouser: Thanks g:-) Its like a glorified shed I suppose. It has power points and room for a bed and tv and kettle, but you would use the facilities of the house. Some Kiwi homes have sleep outs that are self contained totally...seems to be the thing here.

I know of 'sleep overs' but never heard the term 'sleep out'.
Nevermind, your sleep out is charming ... is it booked for the next two weeks?
I love your capture of it ... I'll take it!
12 Jan 2009 11:18am
@Judy: It is not booked but it is now for you:-) This site may help you to understand what a sleepout is. I had never heard of it before coming to NZ.
Thanks for your comment Judy:-)
Lesley from Lincoln, United States
Did you say a place for friends to stay?? ;)
I love this image! The roses give it such a charming, romantic feel. Almost looks like a print I'd hang on my guest room wall or some pretty stationery to send a thank you note on. Very pretty, Liners. I think I could enjoy curling up with a good book in that little "shed."

@Lesley: Thanks Lesley...I will do it up just for you and other am3 friends who would like to stay:-) you are more than welcome:-)

*drool* Ooooh, this is so wonderful. (Hope I can put my plants back to the balcony this week. Our living-room still looks like a small forest.)

Little sleep? Does that mean you have a separate cottage, apart from your house? It's beautiful. Lovely composition and colors!
12 Jan 2009 11:39pm
@Bookfool: Its a separate little glorified shed really but has power points and the potential to be a snug place to sleep:-)
