I have a couple of plaques to show you this week and by pure coincidence they both fit into my alphabet theme and the letter for this post is D
A variation of this Plaque was first seen on my Facebook page, click HERE to have a look. The customer wanted a Dino but with a 'crest' down its back, I love the colours she chose.

| Blue & Lilac Dino |
My customer was very pleased with this next Name Plaque

| A Dragon for Simon |
While on the theme of Dragons I thought you would like to see some photo's of my recent visit to Nottingham, not strictly a Dungeon but these caves could hide a family of Dinosaurs or Dragons.
These photographs are taken in Ye Old Trip to Jerusalem reputedly England's oldest inn. The first picture is in one of the upstairs rooms and picture 2 and 3 are in the cellar. The pub is built into the caves and is well worth a visit.
This next picture is of some of the caves surrounding 'Ye Old Trip' and the Castle.

| The rear of the Inn |
This is a fantastic pub called The Pit & Pendulum which is part of the Eerie Pub Co

I can imagine a family of Dragons living in the underground cellars, can you?
What collective noun would you use for a group of Dragons? would it be a 'wing' a 'flight' or even a Dragoon of Dragons?

Thanks for nominating me last week I have nominated you too as I love the way you use the alphabet for your blogs xx
ReplyDeleteLove the dragons - they look very cute too! Would love to visit that pub one day too - looks very enchanting!
ReplyDeleteLove your signs! Collective noun for dragons has got to be a Wave! Dragons must have originally come from Wales as there's a great big red one on our Welsh flag. Just imagine Welsh Dragon flags blowing in the breeze - must be a Wave!
ReplyDeleteDazzling and delightful!
