19/01/19: Abandoned playing card #18: queen of diamonds


Whetstone. From the internet: "Those born under this card are diligent and dependable. They are strong of character, and determined, but they must guard against hardness and domination. They have much to contend with, and much should be forgiven them. The men strive to provide their partners with security, but can be overly sensitive and prone to temper tantrums (think Tom Cruise). The women enjoy sharing in their partner's business affairs."

01/01/19: Abandoned playing card #17: two of diamonds

Totteridge. Slightly censored... 

According to the internet HERE, "Two of Diamond believe they know best. They make excellent parents and leaders. They are also excellent traders and merchandisers- especially in areas of glamour, or foreign investments. Entertainers often end up drifting through life, or being content with a mediocre performance, though not true of the women."

Woodside Park. It appeared that the base could be used to propel the cat through the air, but that would be animal cruelty. And anyway, it didn't work.

Its presence today can indicate a time when your intuition is stronger than usual. The Six of Clubs♣ is the card of responsibility in speech and communication, and of making compromises to maintain peace."

11/05/18: Abandoned whoopee cushion


Totteridge. When I was a child, whoopee cushions had the exact same picture and text. It's nice to see that some things don't change. "When anyone sits down it emits a REAL Bronx cheer."
