Thanks Pete - I do like the green and orange

I bought a 50s desk lamp from a store in Palm Springs yesterday with exactly these colors on it!

 

[Pete Askew]

That sounds interesting. Let's see a piccy then!

I'll take one when it's installed on my 50s yellow desk at the office

Looks like a touch of violet remains in that jacaranda tree. Image the colors when its in full bloom.

Good question - think it's probably a fancy mailbox though as no one is allowed to smoke in CA any more!

 

[Hamish Gill]

Can you not smoke anywhere?? Not even on your own property?

 

[Pete Askew]

Only in the woods!

 

[Hamish Gill]

oooooooooooooooooo

 

[Chris Dodkin]

There are some areas where you can't smoke anywhere where someone can 'smell your smoke' - i.e. even in your own house!

They don't like smoking here at all!!

Too soon Pete, too soon

@Pete Askew Here you go

 

[Pete Askew]

Oh yes, now that is gorgeous.

Does it hover too?
