Amanda challenges us to come up with our version on photos of Red and Green for this week’s Friendly Friday Challenge.
I look through my files and trust me to find something different – I know it’s not a seasonal choice but I hope a red fire engine on a green lawn will count ok.
And at the time I noted down the story of the said vehicle and I retell this below for your interest/amusement. (However, if you can’t be bothered, I won’t be offended).
