Just getting some breakfast here…You’ve come to visit, you say? Did you bring the French Fancies?Don’t move or I’ll lose you.Gerry’s Pandas.Hard to imagine that much colour at this time of the year.Some places they build around trees. It’s the way it should be.Banff, Canada.I know, I know, I don’t like cats.Dave Ross sent us this from… Hamlin.Iceland: They must have a hell of a god up there.The Sun King.Sir Nils.For Panda Paws.Rome.Meeeeeeh…And stand together at the top with Paris at our feet…Told you we’d been in Hamlin.Phi Phi, ThailandWhat did Tristan say about not liking cats?Vaduz.Yes, all gratuities gratefully accepted, but particularly bananas.
Love the cheetah, like a very athletic version of the creature currently sitting on the end of my desk, aka The Cat Who Came in From the Cold.
But the tiger is altogether scary, oh Pussy, what big claws you have …
Oh those were great. Can’t really single any out but many thanks for the cheetah. Actually there were a lot of cats today for a man that doesn’t like cats! I can understand why given how lovely your garden is but all of these animals would poo in your garden if, well, they were in your garden. And if it were the lion or tiger, poo would be the least of your worries 🙂
Funny that, I was just thinking I’d heard something like that years ago. I think tiger poo works as well. The local moggies are totally overawed and won’t come near. At least that’s the story. Urban legend??
LOL! And there’s me actually thinking it was all an urban myth.
Meanwhile the house feline has been curled up fast asleep practically all day long today. Too much pussing about yesterday, I suspect, so now she’s taking it all lion down …
If it were a lion or tiger I expect I wouldn’t be cursing the idea of going out with my trowel to lift last night’s contributions… more hiding in the topmost spot of Munguin Towers.
But I also hate the way they kill birds and mice for sport, because I know they are all very well fed… and they eat nothing of what they kill. I dread the day I find one of ‘my’ blackbirds or my robin, lying there…. and all for nothing.
Exceptionally nice pictures this week. Both places and critters. I like the patriotic pandas. Also the Iceland lights with the moon. Did you know that the moon is not the largest individual object in the night sky, apart from the Milky Way? Next week, I’ll try to find a picture to illustrate the point.
Tris….I think that’s maybe what the cat has. They come in all designs…….one of the great toys of all time, which also illustrate the principle of vapor pressure. Einstein was famous for saying once that he couldn’t figure out how they work. (He was lying of course, but it played great in the media.)
