yz from Budapest, Hungarywe reject any form of segregation! all legless are equal! though the pure sight of a fully naked person among minor snails might be somewhat scandalous... 17 May 2012 6:14am @yz: haha . . yes, that sounds very much like the 'small print'/'snail print' ! (Doorman Ronnie) Christine from Ellemford, United KingdomOooh come on, I have a whole family that want to visit and hopefuly stay. This is brilliant 17 May 2012 6:35am @Christine: I already have 4,732,897 'shell confirmed' on the waiting list, Christine, and, even with 'birth control', have so many resident snails the mice are complaining ! (Conservationist Ronnie - 'supporting the UK lettuce industry') jpla from St Barthélémy d, Francele match va commencer ! Je te souhaite une agréable soirée 17 May 2012 7:32am @jpla: Merci, JP - pas étonnant qu'il y ait une pénurie de laitue ! (Ronnie) Mhelene from Paris, FranceWhat an idea !! Great composition ...Some remain stark naked !! 17 May 2012 7:58am Adela Fonts from Barcelona, SpainA montage delicious ... A great composition well thought ... Tenderness occurs to me ...

(Ronnie) Stephen from Canberra, AustraliaA sea shell would be interesting - this slug could go far! 17 May 2012 9:11am Maggy from Liège, BelgiumRetour des escargots et autres limaces , mauvais pour les jardins!!! 17 May 2012 9:15am Japanalia from Yokohama, JapanRonnie....have some heart for a poor slug! And Lilly...you're such a DEAR!....but I don't think the slug would like a knit-house; maybe....try to find an empty shell and IT would make its day! 17 May 2012 9:22am @Japanalia: They never put up a struggle when I collect them. Word has got round, I guess. (Ronnie) Florence from Paris, FranceAahahha :-) 17 May 2012 9:33am grouser from Ludlow, United Kingdommaybe he could slug it out with them, that might salt things out, although I suspect things will only be resolved at a snail's pace 17 May 2012 9:58am @grouser: ha ha . . oh, my, I cannot think straight enough to Reply ! (Ronnie-or-whoever-I-am) Linda from Riga/Sigulda, Latviai just love looking at your photos and reading all the comments, which are sometimes as funny as your texts. knitting a shell:)) - would love to see it. 17 May 2012 10:24am @Linda: Now I have sown the seed, I quite imagine Ronnie giving it a try, Linda ! (from Lilly) 'knit one, purl one, knit two together . . (Ronnie-in-training) CElliottUK from Reading, United KingdomBloody Bouncers! No running shoes, no trainers, no drunks, no sobers, no bare tops(Unless you are female), no long skirts(Unless you are male) no ugly people, no cameras, no mp3 players, no one with a silly name, and now no shells. Does that mean I won't be able to get into my local club with my shell suit on? I mean, I paid over £8 for it in Primark.... 17 May 2012 10:27am @CElliottUK: You always get a plug in for Primark. How's the job going, Chris ?! (Ronnie) Gemma Wiseman from Melbourne, AustraliaThere is a multi-level social message here! Those vapoury values! 17 May 2012 11:05am @Gemma Wiseman: We need to tread carefully at times . . (Ronnie) Curly from South Shields, United KingdomYou need a good perimeter defensive system against these invaders, not sure that I proscribe to mounds of salt around the house! 17 May 2012 11:05am @Curly: . . a sprinkling of salt can deter a wide range of concerns, Curly . . but watch out for the salt-police. (Ronnie) Oiva from Turku, FinlandA nice picture. Of these, probably worthy of part of my squirrel for food!:))haleja. 17 May 2012 11:09am Michael Fresh from Chester, United KingdomLilly, 'Poundland' are selling bags of pasta shells together with a tube of super glue. Get all your slugs and convert them, I'm sure Ronnie won't know. (ps. don't tell Ronnie I sent this, he knows where I live and I have some prize blooms in my garden). 17 May 2012 11:13am @Michael Fresh: I've arranged for a defoliant to be sprayed over Chesterfield this very day . . it is Chesterfield, yes ? Oh. (Ronnie) Heinz from Hamm, GermanyDie Dinger auf der linken Seite sind ungenießbar. Habe ich Abends im Garten gesehen, Fressen nicht mal die Igel. Super gemacht. 17 May 2012 11:14am Tamara from Aarschot, BelgiumHahaha... Wonderful ! So creative... Have a lovely day :) 17 May 2012 11:18am @Tamara: Blessings, Tamara - nearly the end of the week - Yay ! (Ronnie) Bron from Canberra, AustraliaOh no not a knitted shell! I've got the scrabbles! Too cute 17 May 2012 11:27am El pare from Prepirineu, AndorraLilly, I think so, if you knit him a beautiful and colourful shell, he will dazzle the snails with the new trends, and your slug would be the king of the feast. 17 May 2012 11:49am CElliottUK from Reading, United KingdomAs a major shareholder of Primark(I've got 4 shares), I would always like to point out the amazing value for money, attention to detail, friendly and knowledgeable shop staff, up-to-the-minute styles and fashions that Primark have. Unfortunately, after the court case, I'm not allowed to mislead any more. 17 May 2012 12:00pm Thea from Leeuwarden, NetherlandsSounds your friends handle a hard immigrant policy ronnie ^^ 17 May 2012 12:19pm B. Thomas from Arlington, Texas, United StatesIt looks to me as if Ronnie is playing a shell game, and therefore is not to be trusted. Lilly, please beware. 17 May 2012 12:38pm @B. Thomas: I'm always on full alert!! Trust me!!! (From Lilly) Rick from Toronto, CanadaAwww, I find Lilly's will to find a way very poignant! 17 May 2012 12:39pm @Rick: This little guy was on my front walk one morning. I took his photo..them moved him to the grass for a better chance at not getting stepped on! (From Lilly) Tede from Aubenas 07, FranceAh! it is not good to be an immigrant at the moment :) Excellent this montage. Good day. 17 May 2012 12:58pm tyan from Singapore, SingaporeOh boy,check out those shelled bouncers at the entrance! I hope you find a way dear Lily! 17 May 2012 1:21pm @tyan: They look the business, huh ? (Ronnie) Denny Jump Photo from Easton, PA, United StatesMay I suggest making him a replica leaf from a Lilly of The Nile plant (no pun intended, Lilly). Snails LOVE those leaves... The cute little slug could slip inside the replica leaf and, thereby, gain entry to the Snail-O-Rama Festival in true Trojan Horse style....What do you think? 17 May 2012 1:27pm Denny Jump Photo from Easton, PA, United StatesBTW - This is one of your best yet...and THAT is saying a LOT - Love this one You2!! 17 May 2012 1:31pm @Denny Jump Photo: Thanks, Denny - we did have a laugh ourselves, must admit ! (L&R) Nicou from Sion, SwitzerlandFantasitwque compo avec les escargots, le verre et le pommes, la poire quel enseemble fnatastique compo. 17 May 2012 2:43pm Steve Rice from Olympia, United StatesNasty slugs! We're overrun with them here. You have wise snails, Ronnie. 17 May 2012 2:47pm @Steve Rice: So glad they get one vote ! (Ronnie) Ellebelle from Medemblik, NetherlandsI feel sad for this little slug :-(( 17 May 2012 3:36pm @Ellebelle: Those three bouncers show little mercy, Ellebelle . . but slugs have the edge on speed, sometimes ! (Ronnie) Nitin from Shanghai, ChinaI love that no shell policy - i think it's a fair policy that should not give way to artificial means such as transplant :P Love your snails Ron - what are their names? :) Cheers!! 17 May 2012 3:46pm @Nitin: Sadly, they have only numbers, Nitin - the latest to be tagged is #136 ! (Keeper Ronnie) RBL from Oxford, United StatesThat's hillarious, bias even at the smallest level, it's just like the night clubs ~ a certain dress code is required! Great photos! 17 May 2012 5:56pm @RBL: Yeah, it's all about privilege and preference, Ruthie . . (Ronnie) Eric Cousineau from Sherwood Park, CanadaLOL...a very tight club! Only the priveleged can survive! ;-)) 17 May 2012 6:42pm philippe from moselle, Francec'est d'une originalité rafraîchissante, j'aime bien .... 17 May 2012 7:55pm @philippe: Nous essayons d'être différent ! Merci, Philippe. (Ronnie) Steven from Chicagoland, United StatesCute and hilarious at the same time! Thanks for the chuckle! 17 May 2012 8:45pm @Steven: Thanx, Steven - a little bit of nonsense does no harm, I say ! (Ronnie) Hanry from Castricum, NetherlandsLOL -:) Maybe it's knitting a tie enough, they usually let you in when wearing them. 17 May 2012 9:02pm ripple from Nottingham, United Kingdomdelightful, it is a pleasure to see these little snails again 17 May 2012 9:46pm Akaruiphoto from Kagoshima, JapanYour snails have plenty to eat Ronnie and I understand that the slug must be interested to go in... 17 May 2012 11:24pm @Akaruiphoto: I so wish you could find a way of 'secure' posting, Olivier - miss your personal view on photo-life. (Ronnie) Elaine Hancock from Rockville, United StatesLilly needs to find an army of thugs, I mean slugs to come visit you Ronnie! 18 May 2012 12:19am @Elaine Hancock: . . a 'slugs army' - what a thought ! Thanks, Elaine. (Ronnie) @Calusarus: ha ha .. .yes, neatly put ! (L&R) PRASHANT from Mumbai, IndiaWonderful collection of 'Intelligent' Snails ....love it. 18 May 2012 6:36am @PRASHANT: Having studied the snails for a year or so, I am constantly reminded of how 'wised up' they are. They are sure smart enough to be kinda frightening, at times (and they likely murmur the same thing about me !). (Ronnie) Sterre from Utrecht, NetherlandsGreat aggregation of the photos. 18 May 2012 8:23am @Sterre: Bring them all indoors and feed them only the bits you can spare ! (Ronnie Wisdom) Doug from Burnham-on-Sea, United KingdomBrilliant, I'll bet they're tough one's on the door ! 18 May 2012 8:48am @Doug: They are a hard-shelled trio those three, Doug ! No messin'. (Ronnie) @valenttin: ha ha . . what a lovely way of interpreting it - I like it !! (Ronnie) Daryl Johnson from Worcester Park, United KingdomA sad state of affairs. A little sprinkling of salt, and do we not all shrivel? 18 May 2012 9:41am @Daryl Johnson: We do, indeed. One of my early snails supped on a Pringle way back. Died during the following night. (Ronnie) Julie L. Brown from Indianapolis, Indiana, United StatesI like how the three "bouncers" guard the entrance while the other three dine on their fruit salad. :) 18 May 2012 10:09am @Julie L. Brown: The more you look, the more you see . . I find this myself ! Thanks, Julie. (Ronnie) Slackwater - Don from Spokane, United StatesA slug with a shell....now there's an idea! Strong post today! Well done. 18 May 2012 2:10pm ❀ Yvonne Simons ❀ from Tilburg, NetherlandsI'll just skip this restaurant, but the idea is again superb! 18 May 2012 2:41pm hugo poon from hong kong, Hong KongOh poor little slug! I'm with Lilly... How I wish it could borrow a shell or something... There must be a way! This snail family had been cute and adorable until today. Magnificent idea and impeccable execution my friends! One of my recent favs!:-) 18 May 2012 3:22pm @kerfendal: Nicely put . . have a wonderful weekend, Kerfendal. (Lilly and Ronnie) curieuzeneuzemosterdpot from somewhere between viewer and subject, Belgiumroflol .. your security-slugs are great, ronnie! :-))))) 18 May 2012 9:33pm Loukas from Athens and Thessaloniki, GreeceYou are very strict with them Ronnie! Great concept! 19 May 2012 5:14am Monique from Koh Samui, ThailandCan't blame those snails for their policy, I really dislike those naked crawling things that as soon as you want to pick them up, suck themselves to the floor ... brrrr! Love to see you're taking such great care of your snails Ronnie! Remember to keep the French out of your house, you never know what might happen ;) 19 May 2012 5:21am @Monique: ha ha . . thanks for the warning about the French - oh, here comes Karine ! (Ronnie-in-a-French Twist) k@ from Paris, France>Ha for this one, once i read the title i already laughed and love your composition of both images and how they interact, happily since we have a new president in France and less authoritarian, maybe he could try in Paris with no shell ? ;) Superb ! and meaningful about so many kinds of racisms. 19 May 2012 6:00am @k@: Ah, living with snails has taught me so much, Ms. Karine . . so much . . (Cuban-heeled-Ronnie) kiwisa from North Shore, New ZealandNeither with shell or without are welcome at my place. 19 May 2012 6:38am Gilles from Entre Bussy et Bruxelles, FranceI didn't thought such discrimination would still exist :P 19 May 2012 12:42pm @Gilles: Smiles - it is still there in the slimy world of the gastropods - the Heterobranchia never get along with the Onchidiidae, it seems ! Have a lovely weekend, Gilles. (Ronnie) Don Levesque from Saint John, CanadaNice composition! Goes well with my periwinkle shot [LINK] 19 May 2012 2:25pm @Don Levesque: ha ha . . yes, I had to smile when I saw that this morning, Don !! Perfect match.

(Ronnie) Jean-Luc T. from Juignac, FranceExcellent! Par contre, le combat est inégal... Il n'a pas de casque! Va falloir que ça change! 20 May 2012 9:12am @Jean-Luc T.: ha ha. . grâce - avoir un bon dimanche ! (Ronnie) Anita from West Nottingham, Pennsylvania, United StatesI think a knit shell is a good idea--use a winter hat pattern, just make it a lot smaller! Who ever heard of having snails as pets? 20 May 2012 10:55am @Anita: Believe me, Anita, to the snails, it is me who is the 'pet' and not they ! (Ronnie) Dokmateo from Madrid, SpainHahaha a very wonderful and funny composition! Superb!

(Ronnie) ☺ ► ƸɼiϾ ◄ ☼ from Narbonne, Franceooopssss... i havent shell... it s sad, i must stay outside ;-))))))) 24 May 2012 5:30am Photographs by M.E. from San Francisco, United Statesagree with Paco, you have great imagination and it comes out of your pictures and conversations! 1 Jun 2012 5:07am |
