Two Gold Stars awarded for last week's Guess What. Adrian for correctly identifying Lichen and Bonnie for saying some sort of fungi and a Lichen is a combination of a fungus and algae (see British Lichens, What are Lichens?). Well done both of you.
I wonder how you will get on with this week's Guess What.

No prizes, just for fun.
============================
When I am building my electronic projects I usually end up with a rats nest of wiring. I couldn't resist taking this shot of a BT engineer working on the phone line junction box opposite my bungalow. How do they ever work out which wire goes to which building? Makes me wonder how I manage to get up to 7Mbits download through copper wire.
Still - as long as it keeps working!
Baked fruit, perhaps apple? baked in a pie.
ReplyDeleteIs it what remains of a fallen apple John?
ReplyDeleteA random guess!

I'm finding some of these very tricky lately John, probably completely wrong but my guess is perhaps part of an apple? If so maybe you will attract a Fieldfare or Redwing or even a Waxwing before long. I am spearing apples on to my trees as I do every Winter for that reason, never managed a Waxwing yet though.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't want to be up that pole let alone trying to sort out the spaghetti :-)
It's a bit of fish and chips batter. (made me hungry)
ReplyDeleteThey are not colour blind and if you strip a bit of phone cable it gives no end of posh colour covered wire.
Copper wire crystallizes or so as I was told by a Merchant Marine radio bloke and should be replaced every five years or so. I guess that is what he's up to up his pole. The poles now have a date on and have to be replaced along with the wires.
