Benedict's Sheep

This absolutely refused to load on the correct post, but I loved it so much (and thought Mark's girl might enjoy it too) that it's got its own. Benedict won a BBC competition with this image, taken at Mudchute Farm. Congratulations, Benedict. Off you go, Mark...

The Greenwich Phantom said...: Nah - I want to see A Toad For All Seasons... a year of Greenwich amphibians.

Benedict said...: I like it, the Pirelli of the toad world, but with a local twist. Its gonna be hot stuff! Toads in bikinis playing beachball by the front of the college. Sexy smart toad with glasses in front of the observatory. Hot Dutch toad with pigtails outside St Alpheges!; 29 February 2008 17:15
Dazza said...: PLEASE Tell me where I can get hold of a copy of this Toad-a-li-cious Calender? I thought I was the only person in the world with an Amphibian fetish!!. Now I know it's not just me........Mind you if you could do one with Squirrels......where's my medication???????? "Nurse, Nurse.....I'll take that cold shower now"; 29 February 2008 17:35
Benedict said...: Dazza, Im working on it now. Just doing a fitting for my toads bikini and have fashioned some cat fur into a blonde wig for the Marylin Toadroe shot on the grating in the market. The squirrels agent is still negotiating terms.; 29 February 2008 18:02

They say there is a website for every perversion. I am sure there is a Toad equivalent somewhere...; 03 March 2008 14:06
Benedict said...: I say, thats a bit saucy.
My neighbour found 4 more toads while clearing his garden. Did there used to be a pond anywhere near the station?
I am having trouble getting these toads to dress up and pose, they say its making them feel cheap. But I have another cunning plan!; 03 March 2008 14:35
The Greenwich Phantom said...: Just remind them that they are not the ones being exploited by your taking saucy pics of them - they are exploiting us, the viewers...; 03 March 2008 14:39
Benedict said...: You know, I thought I could find a toad extra/stunt double agency but there seems to be a gap in the market. So I will just google "rubber toads"..........I cant bear to look!!!!!!; 03 March 2008 15:15
sweetsandruby said...: Forget flight paths and helicopters...now we know what that deep buzzing noise over the park really is!; 03 March 2008 23:23
Benedict said...: Ah yes, sweet and dandy love music sweetsandruby; 04 March 2008 10:23

About Me

Name: The Greenwich Phantom

Location: Greenwich, London, United Kingdom

Greenwich is one of the coolest "uncool" places there is in London. It's not profoundly unfashionable - rather somewhere where it doesn't occur to people that there is anything more than a few museums, a nice park and the Cutty Sark. The really adventurous might know about the Trafalgar Tavern or venture out to Greenwich market on a Sunday afternoon, but essentially, Greenwich is still relatively undiscovered for one of the great regions of London. I adore Greenwich - but I'm not blind to its faults either. In this journal I take an affectionate but honest - at times brutally so - look, giving my own personal low-down on the things to do - and one or two of the things NOT to do in Greenwich. I am being unashamedly parochial here. I will talk about the tourist sites, of course - how could I not when we have a World Heritage Site on our doorstep - but also about the things which make our town great - the little things. Interesting vistas, cool shops, bizarre novelties and quirky one-offs which make this place buzz. Greetings, by the way, to all of you who have travelled with me from Livejournal - and thank you for making the journey.
