SHAMROCK GREEN!

Having never found, let alone photographed a SHAMROCK, or a four leafed Clover for that matter, and with the 'Luck of the Irish' not being with me so far this year, I seem to have shot myself in the foot with this colour selection.
All I can offer personally, is a pagan GREEN man lacquer jewellery box - it's from my days managing 'Otherworld , a Celtic gift shop & was a TY gift from my absentee employers...
And, as Dreamingspires is definitely lacking any early St Patrick's Day spirit, improvise I must now!
This city 'Black' cab [it's the style of vehicle] is waiting last Autumn in the Taxi Rank in Gloucester GREEN's market square, certainly has every shade of SHAMROCK in it's striking stripy paint job...Then, there is always my local EverGREEN parks flag...Won for the third consecutive year in the GREEN Flag Awards - the scheme recognises parks & green spaces across the UK that have reached a high environmental standard.
Heading through the Covered Market to that cake shop, spotted this sign outside on of the butchers...And as for my cake, I like to think that the Pony Club is cantering though a SHAMROCK meadow...
To join True Colours Thursday, all you need, is to post a photo/photographs & text, or better still both, on the specified colour of the week.
If you simply want to use the idea as a 'prompt' for a post, that is fine with me.
But, if, you'd like others including me, to visit you, please leave a comment below, so we know you are 'IN'!
For this meme only, I lift my 'Comment Moderation' to help players connect with each other.
Previous known participants are shown in the TCT Roll Call in my side bar.
Next weeks colour 18/03/10 ... RAINBOW aka colourful
And, please remember ideas for forth coming colours would be very welcome!

I'm back! My apologies for the hiatus. Things got quite hectic there for awhile what with college graduation and starting work full-time. Anywho, enjoy!
