Create With Joy
Wif Wordless Wednesday and Weekly Pet Challenge; a rather cute one of R and Peta (Peter-until-she-laid-an-egg) out of my archives, found while hunting pictures out for an album Younger Daughter is compiling:
Conan Doyle always gets credited for ‘The game is afoot!’ from the Sherlock Holmes story ‘The Adventure of the Abbey Grange’ (the only place it ever appears in the books), but actually a certain Mr William Shakespeare was way ahead of him in Henry IV.

A really cute photo, Col. Your budgie looks just like my ‘Georgie Porgie’ from many eons ago. 🙂

Sweet little girls and cute birds–how could you go wrong?
And I love the line: “The game’s afoot, the door’s ajar…nothing is as it seems.” 😉

Sure-fire, to be sure!
That is a classic line. The original Sherlock Holmes stories were certainly special – the deductions were cleverly thought out, and left one with a feeling that with a bit of perception everyone could become far more aware.
