Odds and ends

Well, I never thought I'd write anything that includes a scene at the Parthenon, but the opportunity arose in the not!drawerfic and I couldn't resist. Write what you know and all that, yes? I've spent enough of my lunch hours on the steps there that I know it pretty well. Sure, this is probably the first scene that'll get cut when I edit, but

You had me confused there for a moment, I couldn't work out why you'd have lunch on the steps of the Panthenon on a regular basis - but obviously you've got your own. Nifty!

Yes, the colour depends on the acidity/alkaline level of the soil - you can actually buy a 'colourant fluid' to add to the water, which switches blue to pink or pink to blue, depending on soil type.

Those lilies are beautiful! I have some lovely asiatic lilies in orange and white, but the magpies love to behead them, just for fun. I don't really mind if birds are causing some damage for nestbuilding or such, but the magpies are really nasty, they just bite off all the heads and pull the stems out and leave it all lying around. *Grmpf*

Hahaha, yes, we do! Done up in beautiful concrete! ;) It actually is pretty cool. It's very big, anyway.

Thanks!

How tacky! I didn't realize they did that. Steenkin' birds.
