- It's time for Jientje's A Thousand words in Idioms. "The idea is to pick an idiom, or a saying, (even slang is allowed) and illustrate it with a picture. Each week we'll cover two letters of the alphabet". Here are my choices, pulled -again- -from the archives. Which means idioms are carefully selected to match my pictures...
- Queer fish
- (UK) A strange person is a queer fish.
Tile work at the bottom of my pool
- Ring a bell
- If something rings a bell, it reminds you of something you have heard before, though you may not be able to remember it very well. A name may ring a bell, so you know you have heard the name before, but cannot place it properly.

Cathedral of Seville, side entrance
Very nice findings !
ReplyDeleteMy idioms are up too, I tried to get some order in this. I scheduled it late because Jientje is always late, lol !
Thanks for your birthday wishes ! I'll do nothing special but I have got 5 cats so far for my collection ! A wall clock, ceramic and metal cats ! I am really an easy person for gifts, don't you think so ? lol !
PS. But I won't eat grilled cat steaks tonight !
Very good pictures to go with the idioms. They are excellent.
ReplyDeleteI don't want to be a queer fish. So I have to try very hard to behave normal. :P
ReplyDeleteYour choices are always clever!
ReplyDeleteSo so perfect. Your finds are great. LOVE the tile work.
ReplyDeletevery cute!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could dive into your pool. It looks so inviting.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe we've all come up with a different one for Q so far -- I thought we'd all be showing the same 1 or 2 since I didn't think Q had that many. It's so much fun to see what everyone comes up with. I love that dolphin tile work! And of the ones I considered for R, I hadn't thought of that one. Great work!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! I love the bells on the cathedral.
ReplyDeleteI would never have known how to picture a queer fish, but you did an outstanding job with this one! And the second one, LOL! We seem to be on the same wavelength today! Thanks for playing, I am so enjoying this!
ReplyDeleteGreat ones. Here we only have RAIN right now.... *sigh*
ReplyDeleteYou make the most wonderful choices Mar...So very imaginative and always BEAUTIFUL Pictures to go with the words! BRAVA, to you!
ReplyDeleteROFL! Boy am I REALLY glad I didn't do ring a bell now! (I came sO close!) You and Jientje! I wonder if there are any more! I LOVE the Queer fish at the bottom of your pool! I'm jealous of the whole pool THING - but I love your fish!
ReplyDeleteHello, I just joined Jientje's "idioms day", your photographs are beautiful and are a perfect match, the dolphin tile work at the bottom of your pool is gorgeous and the church in Seville beautiful. Kathy.
ReplyDeleteI was going to do "Rings a bell," now I am sure glad I was away and couldn't play! Now when -- if -- I catch up, I'll know to choose something else!
ReplyDeleteI love the tile at the bottom of your pool and the shot of the bells is wonderful. What a beautiful entrance to the cathedral.
