Lizard Tees

Yes, you read the title right I'm talking about lizard t-shirts today!   Why would I do a post on lizard tees?   Well it's to do with living where I do.......just going outside to hang out some washing you never know what you're going to find.   This little fellow was just the other side of our pool gate last week so I backed myself back up the stairs, grabbed my camera and was amazed to see he was still there!

The photo's not a great one, but the green stripes on this lizard's body was amazing and the tail just went on and on! Very different in looks to the dark lizards we often see and it stayed to pose (briefly anyways) unlike the enormous blue tongue lizard we had in the garden - that's a funny story so I'll tell you more after we look at some lizard tees!

We hadn't lived in our house long and had a smallish garden bed at the bottom of our back stairs. I was walking past it when one of my dogs made a noise and looked far too interested in something in the garden. All I could see was part of the back which had a v type pattern on it and was about 2" wide, of course I thought snake!   I proceeded to call my dog away in which time the other dog came over to see what was happening along with my then 5 year old daughter.   I'm shepherding them all away and giving the 'snake' a wide berth while screaming out to my hubby (did I tell you about my fear of snakes).   Luckily hubby's deafness (very selective) wasn't affecting him at that time and he appeared at the top of the stairs.

At about the same time hubby got to the garden I saw the snake move on it's legs!    Huge sigh, snakes don't have legs.   We got hold of some gloves and moved the lizard to a safer garden bed where the dogs couldn't attack him and in return we got to see his beautiful blue tongue - my dd had so much to talk about on the phone to her grandparents that night - 'mum doesn't know the difference between a lizard and a snake' 'I told her snakes don't have legs' - yes my dd has always been a little cheeky!

  1. Very cute. Of course all kiwis (which I know you're not but I am thinking of your connections) are fearful of snakes since they aren't lucky enough to have any over there. Check out our cute little visitor on this lens. http://www.squidoo.com/in-the-garden

Angry Birds T-Shirts

Looking for an Angry Birds T-Shirt? Well I have a few for you so let's start looking at them - Buy This Allposters.com A is for Anger is a pretty good logo for these birds because they are the Angry Birds! You see the Pigs have stolen their eggs and so they have to destroy the pigs which is where you come in.............if you haven't played Angry Birds before you're probably wondering what I'm going on about. In the popular game you basically have to catapult the Angry Birds so that they destroy all of the pigs (or monkeys depending on which Angry Birds game you have). Angry Birds have become huge, the premise of the game is very simple and yet somehow it's touched gamers in a way that similar games such as Crush the Castle have been unable to which has resulted in a range of different Angry Birds merchandise including some awesome Angry Birds t-shirts.

Tees with Memories

I was very lucky a few weeks ago to find a Born in the USA t-shirt, it was totally unexpected as I was actually looking through some cheap, I mean economically sensible, shirts for hubby when I spotted it.   Apparently my eyes lit up so hubby had to say those words we all love to hear - "Buy it!" I used to love Bruce Springsteen's Born in the USA album and would play it constantly as a teen.   I was very considerate towards my family by the way - I always made sure that the record player ( yes, the album was on vinyl) was turned up loud so that they could all enjoy the Boss belting out his songs! Buying the t-shirt brought back lots of memories and isn't it great that a simple piece of clothing could do that?   That is the beauty of t-shirts, you can wear them in comfort while reliving past memories.   March 21st is National Memory Day so why don't you celebrate the day by wearing a tee that brings back memories for you? My hubby was looking for Bluto t-s

Athens Tees & Auckland Tees - Travel T-Shirts

Did you know how many cities around the world start with the letter A?   The answer is heaps!   Actually I'm not sure exactly as the different websites show different amounts and I've seen some towns listed as cities........I know they are only towns because I've been there!   I guess different people call different things cities, I remember years ago being told that if there was a cathedral in the 'town' then that made it a city, no cathedral - no city!   I'm not sure if that was just another piece of misinformation from my childhood or if it was true - I'd love to hear your thoughts below. Now back to tees, I was trying to think what places started with the letter A so that I could showcase some of their t-shirts for you and I realized that there's a couple of cities that I have visited that begin with the letter A so let's start with Athens Greece Love by robby1982 Join one of the biggest graphic design affiliate programs Athens, is of cour
