Uglyworld #814 - "It's This Bigs"

Just as I was about to take Babo's picture on one of the many piers at Astoria, Cinko shouted "How bigs is the fish?" to Babo, who immediately resorted to doing his "Big fish, little fish, cardboard box" dance while shouting back in Cinko's direction, "It's this bigs!".

The sense of humour the little guys possess can be hilarious at times.

Uglyworld #813 - Nougatocity

Uglyworm was starving as we sat watching small boats and large ships pass along by the coastal town of Astoria, so much so that he decided he needed a snack to keep him going.

"I has no ideas what the womans behind the counters gives me, I asks for Snickers and she gived me somethings called Nougatocity saying was the same things!".

Poor little guy, he was totally confused until he bit into the bar of choccy and realised it WAS a Snickers.

Uglyworld #812 - "Is You Not Comings?"

As Poe reached the third spiral of the long winding staircase which led to the top of the Astoria Column he suddenly realised that I wasn't following behind him, causing him to stop and ask, "Is you not comings?".

The little guy seemed to have forgotten that heights aren't my strongest point, so after I shook my head he continued on up the stairs to check out the scenery from up on high.

Uglyworld #811 - "I'm Going Ups Here"

Poe stood on the map casting which showed the position of Astoria in relation to the Columbia River and Pacific Ocean and announced "I'm going ups here" while standing atop of the hillside which the Astoria Column stood on.

Uglyworld #810 - Turtle At The Column

Turtle posed for his picture to be taken at the Astoria Column for a future edition of Turtle Time Magazine.

Uglyworld #809 - "I Can See's Further With This"

Poe was a little concerned that he would miss out on some of the sights which lay around the Astoria Column, so he decided that it would be best to use one of the telescopic viewing machines which are to be found at the edge of the car park.

Uglyworld #808 - Hood Ornament

Turtle loves to do his impressions of hood ornaments on cars and trucks, so much so that it's started to become normality for him to run off and find a willing car or truck to stand perfectly still on and wait for everyone else to find him.

Uglyworld #807 - A Fires Engine

On Saturday morning Cinko got the chance to come face to face with an old fire engine, something that got him so excited that I've was unable to calm him down all day!

All I kept hearing was "I was on a fires engine!!!" over and over and over and over...

Just look at that totally excited smile on the little guy!!!

Uglyworld #806 - A Goblins Favourite Tipple (275-365)

There's no point in trying to deny it, Babo knows that all of you have spent at least one (if not many) sleepless nights lying in bed thinking to yourself, "What is a goblins favourite tipple?".

Thanks in no small part to our resident friendly goblin, Gordon, I'm able to finally answer that mysterious question.

"Fat Tires is the bestest, is just perfects for the bellies of goblins, great tastes and we gets no hangovers froms it eithers!".

There you go, looks like we've a proper old Saturday Scoop there...!!!

(You guys do realise that I've managed to make over 80 different shots so far in this tiny little hotel room I've been staying at in Oregon? No mean feat let me tell you...talk about stifling any attempt at being creative!)

Uglyworld #805 - The End Of Summer (274-365)

Project 365 - Image 274/365

Cinko has been quite down this week, and it took until this evening for the reason behind his glumness to be revealed to everyone else.

"I hates it when is the ends of summers", he explained to over the phone to Wage who was listening intently in Aachen.

"One days I was lyings by the swimmings pools, not to closes though as you knows I don't likes waters too muches, and then the next days all I can sees is rain outsides the hotels room windows, I thinks this is poo, you hears me, poo!".

Wage seemed to be agreeing with Cinko's prognosis on it all, and even a little concerned when Cinko explained to him, "I has even gots some tannings oil lefts, whats the hell is I supposeds to do with it nows, when there is no suns any mores?".

Babo is hopeful that the coming week will spring some nice sunny weather on Hillsboro to help bring Cinko back on track again, fingers crossed!
