Beware the pricks
Grandad February 11th, 2007
I like cacti.
The ones I like best are the really plain spikey ones that don’t look very attractive, and then suddenly they explode into the most beautiful flowers.
Others I just like for their shape.
I have one cactus, and Herself is giving out about it.
It has been there for years, and I remember a sister-in-law admiring it once.
So I call it “Sister-in-laws Delight”.
I am baffled as to why Herself is objecting. She calls it obscene.
How can a cactus be obscene?
She keeps muttering something about pricks, but I keep pointing out to her that cacti are covered in them. It’s one of their features.
I photographed it catching the morning sunshine.
I think it looks rather attractive. What do you think?
P.S There has been a lot of interest in this page from my american friends, so just for you, you’ll find another photograph which I just took of my “Sister-in-laws Delight” here

I’d make a joke about your sister-in-law admiring pricks, but frankly I think the picture says it all.
in your dreams, grandpa.
Do you not like cacti Laurie? I like the way the sunlight provides a halo effect. I’d take another photo of it now, but the dog is sitting on it.
Fantastic. There goes my lunch.
I’d like to stick it up Bush’s ass since this is what he’s done to the Iraqi people (and the American taxpayer).
