Memories of Eric and Flynn

This is our new blog. You can find our old blog at http://ericandflynns.blogspot.com We will be keeping it up permanently.

My Photo
Name:
Location: Plymouth, Devon, United Kingdom

We are ginger and white brothers and enjoy sharing our adventures together walking in the fields. Sadly Eric left for the Rainbow Bridge on 19.03.2013. I joined my brother on 1st May 2017 so now we are together again for all time.

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 This week the flashback comes from February 2009.

Eric never liked having his photo taken and would turn away or walk right past me. This flashback is called:

See My Back.


Eric: It's been quite sunny today and not so cold, so I enjoyed my walk in the fields looking at the snowdrops on the way.

Uh-oh, there she is and I just know she has got that darned flashy box with her.

She knows how to spoil my walk. I will just turn my back on her.

You still there? Take that flashy thing away will you. Even poser Flynn has his back to you!

See my back? Well, that is what I think of you and your camera mum.

Flynn: Don't worry mum, I will face the camera for you, because I am your handsome little man.
The random photo this week is from 2.02.09 and was chosen by the Trout Towne Tabbies.

If we get snow this is about as much as we get! We do get rare occasions when we might have 2 or 3 inches.

I am joining Athena, The Cat Goddess for Caturday Art.


I used Flow at 25% then added Sadness at 20%.

Ha! If a cat says 'no' to a picture, he means it. What personalities...

I have never understood why some cats don't like being photographed! I love it. In fact, I come running when I hear my human messing with camera stuff.

Three out of four of my cats have disliked having their picture taken. It's fun to see the same reaction in others' cats!

Love the art; you always choose great filters for the images! :-)

It matters not much what "part" is shown ... when it comes to these two, all their parts are purrfect!

Eric and Flynn I do believe Cats are experts in displaying their back of disrespect. I mean Dang you are on a serious perimeter patrol..the camera lady needs to respect your boundaries. MOL MOL MOL
I love your art

They have a mind of their own, and can tolerate only so much photography. They were too busy to stop for photo shoots.

We love seeing the boys from any angle! Eric and our angel Sammy are probably laughing together at the Bridge about all of our unsuccessful attenpts to get forward-facing pictures of them. :)

Eric and Flynn are kinda like us! Lexy likes to pose for photos and me, well, I prefer to give my back. MOL

Sometimes We like to pose and sometimes, We simply don't. Humans just have to accept that (mol).
The pics were sweet, all the same.

I'm with you, Eric! But do love seeing your handsome face and Flynn's too. No snow here, but our wintertime temps do dip down at night into the 20s and 30s with frost. Love Mom's catwork! Hope Mom and Dad are doing well. Until next time...Jean

That was a fun post...Pipo was like that...get up, walk away, or put head down inbetween his paws. Sheesh! Then I started using the zoom lens and he did better cause he didn't know I was taking pics, LOL!

Thanks for the puzzle.
