What bemused you today?

[Hinfrance]

A lot of my wildlife shots are blurry cr*p as well. That's because of me and my cheap long lenses. But mainly me.

I wonder what cottaging means in Canada?

[Reinardina]

This Joanna Foreigner does not know the meaning either. She'll find out discreetly though, as she fears it might be embarrassing, if she asks for an explanation on line.

She thinks in Cnanada it might mean 'spending time in a second home/cottage.'

[ABERS]

I expect the Canadians have got it arse about face!

You'd think that Kylie Minogue being family would have given us some tickets to the Jubilee concert, wouldn't you.

I always laugh remembering one of the few funny lines in that WI series that had Jennifer Saunder`s in. Having had a friend explain to her it was something else entirely to go "dogging" ,rather than her just being out for a walk in the country with her dogs chasing rabbits, she thanked them for putting her right. "Thank God  you told me that before I go cottaging with friends at the weekend" she said.

Just had my annual eye exam. According to the eye doctor I have not glaucoma, yet. Her words. However, my eyesight has improved. Why does this bemuse me? Spent the weekend cottaging trying to photo the local wildlife. 75 % of my shots were blurry crap. They looked sharp in the viewfinder but weren't. Oh, she did say I need reading glasses now?

Think you need to know ' Cottaging ' has a different meaning over here 

Oh, something rude??

It means going and staying at a cottage, as opposed to a hotel, or a friends house and generally involves a domicile that is rough, rustic, secluded or any combination of. No sex please we're Canadian.

"dogging" - following someone closely?

Oh you Brits, 

[Reinardina]

I had come across the term 'dogging,' but my vocabulary is now enriched with 'cottaging' as well. The things you learn on a supposedly decent photo site!

'You Brits' indeed! I'm no longer an Innocent Abroad!

Any 'port' in a storm I guess. 

I will never be able to go to a rustic, rural, rough establishment again without thinking of it.

Well, that is different.  The term cottaging does get used a lot here.   To us Canadians a cottage is a second house (large or small) to visit on weekends and vacations.   Americans would call it a cabin.  I will be going to the cottage this weekend myself.

So if you are ever staying in a  cottage in the UK with  your dog - watch what you say about what you are doing or you could make new friends you never dreamed of!
