Did you see my different coulourful trumpets (centres) on mine?? I have a story about one.
Yep, they're beautiful! So many different varieties, and so many different shades. My favourites are some miniature daffodils we have that are a really delicate pale yellow, almost white, with golden creamy trumpets. They're so tiny and delicate.
A few years ago I made my granny a notice board with a frame made of salt dough, and I surrounded the frame with all her favourite flowers, including some daffodils. I used cake decorating cutters for the flower petals and leaves, and I had a daffodil cutter too. The little trumpets were so fiddly to make, but the result was worth it. I have it in the attic somewhere. I'll see if I can get it out and post a photograph.
Yes, I am in England. I live near a town that has one of the only two churches in the world that has a "crooked spire". The spire not only leans, with the spire 9 foot 5 inches away from the true centre, but is also twisted. There are a number of legends about how the spire came to be crooked.
One says that it was because the devil was flying south to Nottingham and he rested on the way, perching on the top of the church and wrapped his tail around the spire, twisting it. Another legend is that a magician convinced a local blacksmith to shoe the devil, but he drove a nail into the devil's foot. The devil then skimmed over the spire, and lashed out at it in pain, causing it to twist. According to another the spire was so shocked when it heard that a virgin got married in the church, it twisted to have a closer look. Also, if another virgin marries in the church, the spire will untwist. In reality it was probably that the spire was built using unseasoned timber, which warped as it dried out, but the legends are a lot more fun!
