The new January Squares challenge, hosted as ever by Becky, the Queen of Squares, is all about ____light. In this often dull month light of any kind is what we all need to lift our spirits as we wait impatiently for spring to begin. Click on the link to find out more.
headlight or maybe not…
Headlight (noun) = Headlamps are also often called headlights, but in the most precise usage, headlamp is the term for the device itself and headlight is the term for the beam of light produced and distributed by the device
So… actually this is a headlamp. You’ll have to imagine the headlight.

TRAVEL WORDS 
I see I have to be extra-careful in my use of words with you around 😉
Teehee!
Haha… I have always thought of these as headlights, but actually when you think about it…
and I am now thinking about it!!!
🙂
Very succinctly put, Jude!
I like the shiny chrome and polished paintwork of this – I bet the car looked magnificent. 🙂
It did! Unlike my poor mud splattered, straw covered, algae/moss coated vehicle…
Oh dear. 😦
What a beauty, and I have learnt something new today too!

I got fed up of all the horrible adverts popping up all over my posts so bit the bullet and paid for a plan. Given that I have been blogging on here for free for 7 years it seems like the right move. Took a while to choose the domain name!
Choosing the domain name is so difficult! I like it, and offers up do much, plus now you get more space for your pictures 😃
Thanks Becky. I was getting close to the limit.
That Becky’s sharp, isn’t she? I noticed the name but didn’t put 2 and 2 together. 🙂 🙂 I paid up a couple of years ago. Too lazy to resize my images and I don’t like the extraneous stuff either. In September, when mine was due, I seriously thought about an adapted version of restless to obtain a free one, but you know my ability with software…. life’s too short 🙂
I figured it’s a small price to pay given that it’s my main hobby.
I’m imagining! But I don’t have to imagine that it’s a wonderful shot 🙂 🙂
You live and learn! I’ve always called them headlights.
I think most of us here call them headlights, whether the actual lights or the beam. As in ‘rabbit in the headlights’.
But my Dad always called them headlamps, and used the term to refer to females with big boobs. As in ‘look at the headlamps on her’. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete. x
ah, the infamous head lamp/light! Another vintage car, I see, very curvaceous.
I’m thinking the rest of this vehicle must be very fancy.
It was!
