Cailleach

See Urchin....

Poppies are my current obsession (along with Maltesers, obviously!)

To me, the centre looks like a sea urchin (or perhaps one of those sticky sweet 'snowballs' - you know, the chocolate coated marshmallowy thing, covered in coconut!)

I often wonder why sea urchins are called urchins. Whenever I see that word, I think of Charles Dickens, who was apparently obsessed with fish, and food in general. As evidence, I present to you the following works of literature.

Chard Times.

Liver Twist.

Leek House.

And my personal favourite, that epic story of shark hunting.......Great White Expectations!
