While doublet making today, I did some forward planning. A list, in other words.
It's a pretty simple list and it has nothing as elaborate as theme attached to it, but it does cover most of the letters.
K is eluding me at the moment, but I have starting points for all the rest. No guarantees that any will be used, but they'll be a handy fallback.
Knavery, knife, kite, king, Kwik-fit, koala, kedgeree, kangaroo, knee, Kansas, knight, Knossos ...
Hi Amanda .. thanks for coming over to my blog - As I have no idea which castle you can see - I'm stumped - but if it comes up let me know! Some funny ones - so you won't be there. Bob Scotney is also doing Castles .. he's number 48 ..
ReplyDeletehttp://bobscotney.blogspot.co.uk/ and his blog is here ..
He may give you one or two ideas for your students - on history---- not on doublets ..
Kangaroos - do they wear doublets???
See you very soon at the As ... cheers Hilary
Ah - not knowing which castle is a problem. I'm an eejit. Richmond Castle in North Yorks.
DeleteThanks for the pointer to Bob Scotney. How interesting.
Also - welcome and thank you for the return visit.
Hi Amanda .. now I know .. but you won't for a few weeks!! Tease - aren't I? Here's another Castle site - you'll enjoy Friko's posts and pictures etc .. she has a castle as her header ..

Cheers - Hilary
Once again, thank you for the link. I shall contain my curiosity until you reveal the letter R in all its glory.
DeleteWhen I first read this I was confused - I thought you were creating an 'A' list, then you went onto 'K' my mind did a double-take. Ignore me.
ReplyDeleteI've also disabled word verification for the purpose of A-Z, so if you'd be so kind as to test it out for me, that would be great.
I hear Blogger has an update? Any idea what it is? And are you using it?
Now you come to mention it, I can see how that could happen.
DeleteWill be along to check word verification off-ness right away.
I've dutifully clicked on the "try new blogger interface" thingy and seen no difference at all, so I've no clue if I'm using it or not. Helpful.
