CCC#74
Welcome to my weekly challenge—open to all—just for FUN, FUN, FUN
Here’s how it works:
Every Wednesday I post a photo (this week it’s that one above.)
You respond with something CREATIVE
Here are some suggestions:
- An answering photo
- A cartoon
- A joke
- A caption
- An anecdote
- A short story (flash fiction)
- A poem
- A newly minted proverb, adage or saying
- An essay
- A song—the lyrics or the performance
You have plenty of scope and only two criteria:
- Your creative offering is indeed yours
- Your writing is kept to 150 words or less
If you post a link in the comments section of this post I’ll be able to find it
If you include Crimson’s Creative Challenge as a heading, WP Search will find it (theory)
by ‘Searching’ in the WP Reader (fingers crossed)
Here’s wishing you inspirational explosions. And FUN.

Truly, I do not know. The best I can offer is they were close to where windturbines are being constructed for overseas markets. But also, the port supports the needs of the North Sea Gas industry. Then again, possibly they’re heading to neither. Apart from that, they’re fairly tall 🙂

Good one! Single structures, different sizes, but possibly somehow related. Is there only 4?

Just one more question. Are they near the town?

Yarmouth lies to one side of the river (beside which they sit), Gorleston lies to the otherside. Housing? Not too close; it’s more an industrial area, of maritime nature.
If you ever get to watch that movie I said, you’ll get a fantastic bird’s eye shot of it 🙂

Oh! Thanks. It’s not on Netflix but maybe youtube has clips. 🙂
And now I’m stuck listening to drilling from where knows. The apartment upstairs I guess. Shows the virus really can’t stop progress.

These days the port serves two industries: the North Sea Gas and construction of Wind Turbines. So you could be right.

Gosh, is it that time already? But, yes, I discovered it yesterday (my daughter told me). How easy to lose track of time. So after my ‘morning waffle’, I wish you the same. Maybe we can follow the Easter Bunny down Alice’s hole. 🙂

I like what the story they told you.
And I’ve been looking at these towers and pondering that question of what they are, and I think it’s possible these are the frames for wind turbine towers.

Whatever they are, they seem a long way up to climb. So if I were to make some homes up top, I’d wanna have some elevators … Then again, people have been building things atop hard-to-reach areas before, often deliberately … I’m thinking of some of the “Tiger’s Nest” in Bhutan, for example – how they got building materials there and how they managed to do it is mind-boggling. So, who knows …
