HEY EVERYBODY!

All these were taken with OMG CAMERA, the use of which I have not yet mastered. This is basically all the apology you will get for any and all crappiness encountered; however, I will apologize for the fact that they are HUUUUUUUGE.

It is a dog wot. This was basically the only one she sat still for, which is weird, since it was the first I took.

My poor abused hand. I, er, wanted to see if I could take one with my left. Yes, I really am that pale and skinny.

Books. :D I cleaned it up a lot for the picture. Usually even going near that shelf is to invite concussion, unless you are me and familiar with its habits. Larklight isn't in there because it was beside my bed for quick reading.

Shneek! I think he's meant to be a Rainbow Serpent, from the Dreamtime story - the snake who carved out the shape of the land, mountains and rivers and stuff. Man, it boggles me that most of you wouldn't know it. It was one of those ones they used to read to us all the time in Year One.


SQUEEM HERE ARE MY FREDDO PICTURES.

One from the front...

...And the back. It's orange because it has bits of Crunchie bar in it, this sort of honeycomb/nougat caramel crunchy stuff. It was all I could find at the store.

This is what they look like out of the packet. Note the rictus of terror.

Here is a side view.

Here is what happened when my patience finally snapped.


Here is the fate of all Freddos, lain bare. ...I sure hope I don't inspire a Freddo uprising or something, with these pictures. Er.

The internet is being dumb, so I have more I will upload later, including the Shneek and some more random Freddo pictures. Eee, camera.

Edit: Done. Photobucket's being crazy so I stuck them in the entry itself; watch out for that. LJ automatically resizes them, though.

Er, may I ask why Squeemu had a burning desire to see a Freddo? (I was going to ask 'HOW COULD YOU NOT FIND A REGULAR ONE? THEY ARE EVERYWHERE', but then I remembered that there was some sort of salmonella scare, wasn't there?)

HORRAY PICTURES! Now, I shall shamelessly encourage you to post more! By, uh, by telling you that I am encouraging you, ISN'T THAT ENCOURAGEMENT ENOUGH?

They aren't too terribly huge! I was expecting full-screen huge, because that's how my dad's camera works. It's rather annoying to have to rescale everything.

Hee, dog. What's her name? Also, there totally was a point in my life where I would have been able to say what kind of breed she looks like, but I can't for the life of me remember anymore. And I would mock you for your paleness, but alas. I am extremely pale as well.

Okay, so, the only books I can actually identify are: Garth Nix (so shiny!), Harry Potter, Hungry City (so pretty), something by Douglas Adams that I have not read, Artemis Fowl, which I also haven't read, and L. M. Montgomery.

Hee! FREDDO FROG, WE MEET AT LAST! Okay, see, now I really want to try the crunchy kind. It sounds so good. They are much thinner than I thought they would be! Although I wasn't expecting the rictus of terror, either, so I figure it all evens out.

Adorable dog!

And my, your nails are so nicely maintained!

HOW ARE YOU LIKING LARKLIGHT SO FAR? I MUST KNOW. I'm so happy you got it for Christmas! I've been so wanting you to read it that I was starting to consider hunting down your address somehow, buying you a copy and sending it off.

I totally know the rainbow serpent from that story! We have this big book 'o folk tales and fables from around the world. Some of them are hilariously bad, like "The Prawn That Caused Trouble", but the art is gorgeous and there's this one breathtaking painting in there of the rainbow serpent that I've always thought was really cool.

And wow! We finally get to see pics of the fabled Freddo! AMAZING. And it's so weird that we don't have them here. They look tasty.
