Time To Tell All…………..
Hello students! Today we will spill the beans about the Teaser photo from yesterday. We’ll also let you all know more about the new school!
First up though is Teaser details…………………….
WHO WAS FIRST COMMENTER??
Nope – sorry about that – it was not you……………it was our good friend and frequent supplier of wonderful Teaser photos…………..
Jackie of TwoDevonCats !
Now just to refresh your memory let’s show you the Teaser photo from yesterday before we tell you who was our First Right Guesser AND who sent the photo in to us for TEASER TUESDAY!
Isn’t this a fabulous photo? It was sent to us by our wonderful world traveler and student at Ding Dong School, Miss Jackie who ALSO was our FIRST COMMENTER today. She just happened to be by her computer when the notice of the Teaser post came through so not only did she sent in this great photo but she was FIRST COMMENTER.
This photo is of a spot she and her husband recently visited while on a little trip………it’s the Vicars Close located in Wells, Somerset, England – it’s the oldest (yes OLDEST) complete medieval street in England and MAY be the oldest in Europe. Isn’t it GREAT? They were former almshouses. Here’s some info in a link provided by Jackie if you’d like to find out more details:

Thank you Miss Jackie for the terrific photo!!
Then we waited – and waited – until we finally got our FIRST RIGHT GUESSER……………….know who that was? It was someone who is VERY GOOD at figuring out what to google to find some ideas as to where the photo was taken – and she loves solving those mysteries! The FIRST RIGHT GUESSER WAS:
Miss Csilla of kolytyi
If you also guessed correctly – then you are entitled to have a copy of this badge to show off:
If you tried – guessed – but were WRONG, you are still going to take home a badge today from class! This one:
OK CLASS GIVE YOURSELVES A HAND FOR WORKING HARD THIS WEEK!
Now for the news about the new school. The School Board hired a landscaping company to jazz up the greenery around the school for us and I think it looks GREAT! They are getting the interior set for us and we should be able to occupy our new classrooms by next Monday’s PRE-TEASER class so make sure you’re here for that. Here’s a peek at how things look so far:
I think we’re going to feel right at home don’t you? Now it’s time for us to bring in our Cheer Team to acknowledge our winners this week………………..Team? You’re ON!
The Cheer Team petitioned the building and grounds committee asking for their OWN Hot Tub this time – one that they don’t have to BEG to use like they do with Sarge. Sarge and the Team will have SEPARATE quarters in the new facility. If you think there’s something ELSE we should add to the school – just let us know. We’ll put it before the committee and see what shakes out. NO WE WON’T GET A NEW CAFETERIA SUPERVISOR. Sorry Kismet and Evil Squirrel!
Speaking of the cafeteria – Miss Dingleberry? Are you ready to feed a hungry classroom?
Yes indeed and I hereby promise LAMB will never be on the menu!!
Guaranteed to be lamb-free!!
What a great teaser – well done everyone 😊 wonder if the interior of the school will be all soft and lambswoolly – and perfect for a snooze? 😂

Congrats to Miss Csilla for being first right guesser! It is a very picturesque place and there were surprisingly few people looking at it considering it is peak holiday season. I think they were all admiring Wells Cathedral and didn’t walk those few extra minutes to see it.
The new school is looking lovely with the flowers all planted up outside. Do you think you could send the landscapers to help with my weeding?

It was wonderful that you were able to get a photo without a lot of people about – makes it more interesting to focus on the beautiful buildings! Thanks for being our GUEST – this is a fabulous place and I wish we’d visited when we were in the UK last. I’ll speak with the landscapers about crossing the pond to help with your weeding – OR we could send some sheep to EAT the weeds?????
Hugs, Teddy and Mom

Sheep would be good as long as they promise not to eat the flowers but only the weeds.

Well. Would you guess what I googled? It was “netherlands old red brick terraced houses chimney cobbles”. Yes, Netherlands. And the following pic turned up, among others: https://image.shutterstock.com/image-photo/old-houses-rows-chimneys-cobbled-260nw-766999747.jpg. I thought it looks quite similar – it said: “Old houses, rows of Chimneys & cobbled streets in historic city of Wells, Somerset”. I double-checked, and voilá – that’s it!!! I’m (dark) green with envy that Miss Jackie could visit such magically boootiful places!!!! 🙂

You sure googled the right thing to START with which led you to the REAL deal on the photo. Amazing. I’ve told the other students before that they should consider Teaser a mystery to be solved and googling different things is the way to get there! You are a master of that technique!!!!

Shouldn’t the new school have a prison for students to serve their detention in? You know…. like Last Commenters, kids who try sucking up to Sarge, students who get too many Greenies, people who serve Miss Dingleberry’s food to the squirrels (talk about cruelty to animals)….
