I love the giant hedgehog! You need to make a road trip to visit it in person and provide your own photos for us.
Oh my gosh about the woman who was caught with "furious horse riding"...lol.
And really about Woody?
Happy Monday :)
Tracy, you've certainly found the most "interesting" stories this week. Such oddities! The bacterial art and that gigantic hedgehog are my favorites. Happy Monday!
I heard about Woody's gun before. *roll eyes*
Oh and that girl with the tat? OMG! EWWWW!
that's crazy about Woody's gun. Sheesh, that's a bit much.
And cutting out a tattoo? Oh god, how gross!!
You find the craziest stories. Love it.
The arm pit art is pretty disturbing, but I guess very unique!
I really, really, really want that Hedgehog for my lawn.
Armpit bacteria being made into art- definitely not heard of that before. I did hear of the lady cutting off her tattoo- that is scary and sounds painful.
Are you wanting to visit the giant hedgehog? :)
Love these, as always.
what? Woody aren't allow to travel ? :(
Hi Tracy,
I have to say that the story about the super-sized hedgehog is definitely the best this week, if only because I have spent part of my afternoon making a much smaller, paper hedgehog out of a used book, to be used as part of a window display for World Book Week, in a couple of weeks time.
I am not a particularly 'arty' person, unlike the sculptor of the real thing, and even my paper folding efforts could be described as abysmal at best!
A great selection of random wonders, as always!
Enjoy the rest of your week,
Yvonne.
Wait wait wait....Woody's gun?!? Good grief. -_-
