Juneteenth

Having had no clue what this was, going into it, I had to do a quick bit of googling only to realise it was...ah of course I knew about that, turns out I've just never heard it called that. Everyday's a school day!

Of course this had me doing a bit of legwork through my calender to figure out what I could slot in here. So back to the Google machine I go. But bloody hell it was tricky trying to figure out where the various manufacturers were based. In the end, with some luck, I came across a location for Caties Bubbles (thank god for a contacts page with an actual address), so I think New Jersey counts for this effort.

Once again very lucky to get my hands on the full set of this over here in the UK, and again I have Hairykopite to thank for it. Almost smells like I should be in a library, and as weird as that might seem, that is a comforting scent to me, always love a good book.

Challenge - Meme Day

Possibly a bit random, and lengthy (for meme), but it still rings true.

Photocontest

I fought like hell with this one, couldn't get it to where I wanted, but I tried for 'Bokeh Balls' on this one, and thought the light source would be relevant given the soap descriptor. Different periods but at least linked to history. Worth a shot!

Have a grand one all.

Cheers

Marc
