What the dog thought
The dog is thinking: 'Last week I heard her say "sell phone" and I hoped that she was going to get rid of it!'
(My apologies to non-English speakers, the humour probably only works in English.)
The place: The main shopping area in Keswick in the English Lake District.
Charity shop 'cello
Child-size violoncello in a charity shop in Keswick, in the English Lake District.

"Alle Menschen werden Brüder"
Joy (in Beethoven's sense) to the World in 2019!
Joy, bright spark of divinity,
Daughter of Elysium,
Fire-inspired we tread
Within thy sanctuary.
Thy magic power re-unites
All that custom has divided,
All men become brothers,
Under the sway of thy gentle wings.
