Good Morning Everyone,

Another morning of fun!
My posting this morning, to fit the theme of clothes, is a clothes collection being modelled by that famous old couple, Worzel Gummidge and Aunt Sally.

Worzel is wearing the ultimate gardening outfit consisiting of baggy grey trousers, a relaxed grey shirt covered by the finest, long beige cardigan, and completed by a dapper hat, brim turned back in a raunchy manner. A must, for all those fashion conscious imitators, is a sprig of straw just peeping from the open neckline.

For a complete contrast, Aunt Sally's outfit will set all the would-be gardeners on their heads! This amazing, long dress, covered in bright, butterfly colours and reaching the floor, where is works wonderfully well as a path sweeper, has a low neck to reveal a matching necktie. The whole is surmounted by the most eye-catching bonnet, a must in its own right but also protection against the sun's rays, against bees and the unwanted attention of Worzel!!

I give you the very LATEST in clothes design!!!

These scarecrows were captured at Wray's Scarecrow Festival.
The character Worzel Gummidge was created by Barbara Euphan Todd, whilst Aunt Sally goes back a long way in British history. For more information about the characters click here


Many thanks for your visit.
I hope you enjoyed it.
Please feel free to offer feedback on any aspect of the photograph.

Hi Beverley,
It can be quite startling coming upon these 'people' outside a shop doorway.
I like your POV, with the man looking right into the camera, definitely a poser I would say;)
Well seen,
Pete.

Hi Bev,

It is always good to be educated in the current fashion - glad you could teach me!
A fun and colourful addition - I was always afraid that we would see such a couple in our front yard with one of our wedding anniversaries - glad we did not ^-^.

Hello Beverley, love the notes!
This pair would be quite frightening if you came across them at night.Yet I love the face of Worzel, it looks just like Jon Pertwee who used to play Worzel Gummidge on the TV series.
Excellent entry for todays theme.You just never know when your shots are going to be a useful addition do you?
Very colourful and a good composition with both scarecrows completely in the shot.
Tfs, regards Jean.

hello Bev,
this posting is loads of fun. Excellent POV with Aunt Sally to the fore (as she always was in the TV series). I could swear they are going to get up and walk.Love your fashion notes too.
Come back Worzel...children's TV needs you!
Bev

The characters I do know Bev, I guess that comes from having an English ex wife, her father could impersonate Worzel to perfecton. I like your PP work here, it has signs of almost comic book to go with the characters. Good colour and nice detail. TFS,
David

Chuckle...I'm definitely wearing the wrong gardening clothes! Amusing couple, and I'm glad you explained them:) Interesting to see the birds hanging around too. Not-so-scarey scarecrows, I guess! Great capture, good comp, clear focus...well done.

Hello Bev :o)

Haha, excellent tribute for Helen's theme ! They are so elegant and quiet. Fortunately we don't have to put such hat and dress ! LOL !

Hi Bev,
What a charming couple, him with his toothy smile and her with her flawless complexion. Only problem they might makes the crows curious.
Lovely warm colors and excellent sharpness to this lovely pair.

Great note, excellent composition and technical details.
