Haha I know! I didn't notice his face when I took the pic so when I looked at it afterwards I burst out laughing. I'm laughing again now. No real idea why he looks so shocked. Maybe he could see a ghost beside me!!

Aawww Seph! That's such a nice thing to say!! I take the photos on my phone, which is the cheapest smart phone you can buy.. a moto one and the camera is horrendously bad, I have to take about 50 photos to get one that isn't a total blur! I do enjoy taking pics of my pets.

Thanks Leg End. Their white is SO white irl, it actually glistens in the light. They're so clean just because they're indoor cats. They're healthy because they're very well fed! Better fed than me half the time!

Bedside, enjoying listening to the heavy rain outside. Very therapeutic it is. Mind you, in a few weeks time it will be that fcuking rain again..

it's not as invasive for young children now. Since a few weeks ago, they only swab just inside each nostril for young children ( I think it's 0-5 year olds ). D

Two nostrils? Does that count as one test or two ? I feel for the poor guy, did my 29th test yesterday with a new nurse, I wasn’t impressed with her heavy hand as she was seeking any brain cells that I might have left.

Yes but this is just inside the two nostrils for young children. They don't go right up there like with adults

There is a fair bite of winter in that morning out there.

Poor mutt got a clatter, I hope he's ok smurf!

Ah Buile, that picture made me laugh so much, the little tooth poking out and the other fella totally shocked

I got so many cat cuddles yesterday evening and during the night. It was so so lovely, they are so soothing, pets are the best.

At the airport again! This time waiting to fly to Aberdeen. There was a mix up with my bag but all sorted now. I swear I'm not moving a muscle tomorrow, I don't care if my bed is on fire

Almost the end of my day here. I still am "up" in the small hours to "call home" Easy for me at both ends. Have a lovely afterevening all!

No drama news from the missus, will have to check with her. As for his face, he will have to learn to keep his nose away from feral cats with new born kittens.

Mama cats tame and feral will defend and protect their babas with claws. When Smudge had her babies she'd growl if anyone got too near the box. Except for me. When it was me she"d purr and roll back a bit as if to let me have a peek at her furry bundles. An honour of the highest order. Now they're grown and much bigger than she is she's happy to give them a random clatter from time to time just to remind them she's mother and they always concede to her. Gilbert is still a big Mummy's boy!

Just back from a good swim in my local gym/pool and heading off into town for my art class - the first physical one since lockdown in March. Looking forward!

Ah he's grand thanks Sardi. Not a bother on him. Just a typical dose or side effect of teething is all he has I'd say. Hopefully we'll get a negative test result in the morning so we can go back to work etc and stop restricting our movements.

That's great news for your Mam Auto
CCL, hope your test is negative .

Sardonicat

I was just about to post to say Dr Zhivago is on! Not so much memories of a better time but a poignant depiction of how a life a can be moulded and changed by unstoppable forces of change, in the heart and in the world at large. Pertinent to our times?*

The film is a beautiful adaptation but I can't really enjoy it so much since I read the book. 'Lara's Theme' is lovely, though. Enjoy it, ye soppy gits!
*Spoiler alert: no matter who has control of the forces of history, the heart will love who and what it loves. The Soviets didn't like that truth very much and didn't like Pasternack reminding the good folk of the Soviet Union in beautiful poetry and prose.

I admit I was a bit scared starting over in a new place. But they have all been so welcoming and nice and it put me at ease a bit. If you do make it to my work, ask if Alej is in and then I will know know to treat you to the best of my ability.

I can make a nice beer battered and garlic infused onion ring. That is my own concoction since I love using Garlic.
