Pine cone?

Should you be looking for a beacon of direction, this wildly pruned tree in The Wood of Nelson has a wild cone blossom on the roadside. You may smile at this wildly creative hi-viz - clearly the person who did this was not out of their tree, but in it! Indeed, we like this creative flare.

Crazy paving

The whole of Elliott Street in central Nelson got re-sealed today, presumably to look spic and span for a certain large rugby event coming up at Trafalgar Park later this year... except just this one little bit that is. We like to think of it as wildly sneaky creative road work art work.

Hanging around

Overheard in Nelson, a Collingwood Street conversation...

Paisley: Hey man, you look terrible. You wanna iron yourself out a bit.
Blue: Humph!
Paisley: Decidedly dishevelled even. And you’re normally such a stuffed shirt too.
Blue: Well, we got home last night, me and him, three sheets to the wind and we lost the thread a bit.
Paisley: Lost the thread? Looks more like he lost the shirt off his back and you’ve been hung out to dry mate...
Blue: What would you know? You’re just a button-down, wide-weave, over-decorated fashion victim.
Paisley: Oh keep your shirt on buddy or those knickers down the line will get in a twist. I’m 100% wild and sneaky art cotton I’ll have you know.

Legless

Spotted, a convention of wild and sneaky aprons looking for legs. Can you match the legs to an apron, or even your legs to an apron? Clearly, if you are tired of your current proportions there are all sorts of epic proportions to choose from. Cooking may never be the same again. We think Jeanette Marlow's novelty aprons at Nelson's Saturday morning market are wildly wonderful and fun.

Wild & sheepish

Parker the sheep likes to be wildly on the down low. He is a shy, silent, retiring type, who prefers to fly under the radar and loiter in the cool shade of the tomato plants kindly provided by his sheperd/gardener at his home in Stoke. Parker is often greeted with a maa-aa-a by children passing by on the way to school. He likes to give them a silent suitably philosophic sheepish look and continue with his enjoyment of the day.
