Lola said...

Hahaha. Let's see what Nacho says...

nacho said...

That s impressive! Just a few I m not 100% with: 15 rings suspiciously Spanish. What about 18? What bit of the drawing did you get that from? I m intrigued. 21 and 23; Is it just me or does the thing coming out of that poor bloke s ear look like a worm? I d bundle 24 in with 15. Only 15 s partly right. There s a few other little mistakes here and there but that s great stuff, guys!

Lola said...

I thought it was a horn coming out his ear hahaha. So then, it could "get that worm out of my ear".
Amendment: Jump over your OWN shadow

Rafa said...

Yes, I didn´t know it was a worm!
Worm out of sth or somewhere.

There is a shadow bellow the guy 18

There is a very useful webpage thefreedictionary.com that offers you a wide range of possibilities like idioms, thesaurus, dictionary... among other. There, you can find idioms by typing key words. There you can find: all cats are gray at night or all cats are gray in the dark.

I vanish from the blog these days due to religious matters!







Just kidding
I need a break

nacho said...

If someone s earned a break that s certainly you, Rafa. Have a nice one!

by the way, i d say 21 s an earworm; you know, one of those tunes you can t stop humming!

nacho said...

It can certainly be a pain when a silly song relentlessly pesters you but if the tune s right...in my case, these two have been wriggling upstairs lately. Some of the lyrics are uncannily relatable these strange days

Only a little gift for Easter!!!!! A pinch of drama if there is not enough!!!!

She echoed Yeats´poem!!!! pay attention!!!!

Only a curiosity, Purcell always repeted the word "never" in all his vocal music. Why? We won´t know, he died from pneumonia!!!! His wife didn´t let him come in after a glorious drunken night!!!!!

Check on Dido y Eneas!!!!

I love it!!!!!!

Rafa said...

By the way, who´s Adriano? Nobody has introduced him to us!!!!! please! that´s not polite!!!!!


Stay put!

nacho said...

Cool link,Rafa! I haven’t watched the whole thing yet but I certainly plan to. Adriano’s a student from the 16:15- 18:30 C1 crew. I’m glad you’re enjoying the friendly banter around here, Adriano.

Rafa said...
