Here it is, the first ever Mid-Week Mention on Pond Parleys. We hope to highlight great web sites, products, blogs, people - you name it! (Obviously as long as they have some relevance to the blog!)
Dan da da dan dan da-a-a-a-n....
We'd like to tell you about a fab web site owned by Roger Penycate, a Londoner who has lived in the US since 2002 and currently lives in Virginia, .
Miniature Picture Cards, offers unique pictures of nearly 100 different themes and topics, They are, as Roger describes them;
"Larger pictures (up to 20" x 12") which include apertures containing lots of smaller (miniature) picture card sets". The pictures (un-framed) are available in a variety of sizes.
As well as a plethora of subjects for the American and Canadian markets, there is a delightful Great Britain section specifically for ex-pats and anglophiles. Card selections include the inimitable London Buses
.
Aren't they great!
There's also cathedrals, Kings & Queens, scenes from Dickens and these great old pubs:
And lots more....
We have teamed up with Roger to offer one free picture (maximum size 17" x 14") in a seriously easy competition.
All you have to do is visit the site
here and tell us which card is your favo(u)rite. It's that easy. Come back here and tell us in the comment box. Roger will then be picking a random number, and the person whose comment is in that place on the comment list wins whichever card s/he chooses.
He's even picking up postage, so US and UK readers are all eligible.
You have till Saturday to try your luck, and we'll announce our winner in our Sunday post.
Good luck!
