BANANAS

@ Dan - It's 12 o'clock somewhere in the world...

My sister found this and posted it on her facebook wall... thought I'd share it with all of you.

wow very nice drawing. Thank you for sharing Lynn! :) 

Lynn: Amazing.  Is this from your Twisted Sister?

Found this is Malta on a trash bin (garbage can).  I think they got it wrong!

Anyone able to get to Canada for THE AnnaBanana Event?

I almost wasn't going to tell, but the coincidence is too silly -- my birthday is November 18. Now I know what my mother was thinking -- Bananas!

P.S. I'm in.

Definitely!

November 18 is around the corner… I don't think I can swing it by then, but if the 'rules' are bendable… I'm in.

Send banana mail on or by or marked : November 18!

Send to as many on the list as you wish...

'Will also add others to list during this week!

-Finnbadger

-Angie and Snooky

-Linda French (and a Happy birthday greet too)

-Stripygoose

-Rebecca Guyver

-Katerina MomKat

-definitely banana mail to Dean, the Artist in Seine

-and don't forget Anna Banana

Ruud, we see that yummy banana candy! are you in?

Not sure if I  am able to send out sufficient bananas before 18th of November (last year I was too late), so don't count me in...

But at least I want to show you the wonderful Banana Mail Art which I received today from Laura Griffin from Victoria, Canada, where the Art Gallery is.

This great stamp for instance, which Laura added to the envelope.
Never knew before that there are Houses in Bananas!

The mail art has been delivered fast: the Canadian Post postmarked it 27th October, arrival overseas 4 November.
Thanks to this extra, delivery-quickening banana stamp on the back of the envelope:

And in the envelope: look! See these lovely Banana Ladies.
The bird top right is worth a post on my Animals blog (but I'll do that probably in the weekend).

On the back of  this collage, among other beauty, a great artistamp of the famous Anna Banana: 

Thank you very much, Laura!

Heleen, you may make your banana mail art at your leisure and just mark them Nov. 18...even if we get them for Christmas :-)

People who attended Anna Banana's exhibit in Canada seem to be sending us banana mail ...this arrived in Greece from Liz:

How very nice...and with the banana stamp, too!

('will blog the card inside soon)

Banana Mail from Liz McArthur in Anna Banana Territory: Victoria, C...

AWESOME!!!

That's our Banana Man! gotta send him a banana trophy :-)

Bananas in-the-mail since yesterday,

so the far distant ones arrive by Nov. 18.

Let's not open or blog the Banana Mail Art until Nov. 18, ok?

International Banana Appreciation Day!  I just received this one from FinnBadger.  But I see a few of you have been planning away.  Thanks for carrying the Banana flag.  I'll be ready for the February events for sure.

Happy Bananas to you, Dean...

Received from Angie,

and Stripygoose Sue

Thanks a bunch (of Bananas :-)

Banana Blogs today :-)

• Stripygoose Sue and her birdie with BANANAS, too

• Angie and Snooky sent Bananas too

Thanks to Angie & Snooky, MomKat and stripy goose - their banana mail all arrived yesterday, so something to open this morning. Maybe there'll be more at home tonight.

And Dean, no banana is ever truly late ;)

Banana by Angie !  Detail of the same one I just blogged but the other way around just to fool you.  No matter which way you look at a banana, it's still a banana.  Late or not Phillip!  Thanks again to everyone who took part.  What a great surprise.

And yes, that is a real 3D elephant on the Banana.  Thank you Sue.With a glow of Bananas through a cathedral window.  I wish you all a wonderful International Banana Appreciation Day.

Happy BANANA day every one! And thank you to Finnbadger and Katerina for the banana post which has safely arrived. Pop-up banana gallery coming soon...

Just bliss to receive some bananas! I will send banana mail soon, but for the moment just a big thank you to Katerina and Stripygoose.

You can see the blogs at: http://thepostalleger.blogspot.co.uk

Here's a sneak preview!

And Angie, I have started to alter the slides you sent on to me. originally from Katerina, I think.  I should be done soon.  should I send them onto Katerina?

Creating Banana mail art on Banana Appreciation Day :-)

Thank you, FinnBadger, for your great Banana Smile and the wonderful Circle of (banana) Life! Arrived exact on Banana Appreciation Day, but I was too busy yesterday (creating bananamailart) to post it on The Day.

Heleen, your Banana Art is fantastic! Nice that you are creating on Banana Day...now to wait patiently for one to arrive in Greece, perhaps? :-)

No rush...we can celebrate Banana Day up until the New Year!!!

Finnbadger's Banana Smile arrived in Greece today:

Thanks a bunch (of bananas)
