Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

This week Eric gets the main post, and Flynn has a one photo post, both from March 2011.

Eric the Photographer.

Flynn was going to take the photos today but we had icky worming stuff put on our necks and he was being sulky. He laid in the grass and kept the camera covered, so I told him I would do it.

This is usually the first field we go in so I took a photo of it. The drive up to the road is behind the post and rail fence. If you look carefully, that white spot half way along the fence is Flynn still sulking and not joining us. You can biggify the photo to see him better.

Then we walked along to the next field and I took a photo of mum in front of me. It looks like that blade of grass is bigger than her haha!.
She told me to try and remember not to take photos of the sun. We don't know why the centre of it came out like a black dot.


Then I took a photo looking down to the river. That silver thing just off centre is a field shelter.

I took another photo of mum walking, and forgot and took the sun again with another black dot.

Then I took a photo looking down towards the hay barn. Mum says the grass looks very high from our perspective. She should realise the grass is high to us with our little legs. Hopefully Flynn won't be sulking next week and will take the next lot of photos.

Flynn, Still Sulking, so take this thing off my neck!

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 Two short posts this week from March 2011.

Flynn:  am not amused.

A few days ago mum put icky worming stuff on our necks. I don't like it. It made my fur go scruffy and I am trying to reach it.

I am reaching as far as I can, but it's no good I just can't get to it.

I am not amused mum and I am going to sulk for the rest of the day.

Eric: Easy Like Sunday.

I am going to take it very easy this Sunday....

and I may even snooze right through Monday.

We were asked a couple of questions this week which we will answer.
Q. Are we brothers from the same mother?
A. Yes we are litter mates.
Q. Were we the only two in the litter?
A. No, there were three more in the litter.
And not so much a question. Some of you said you get the icky flea stuff put on your necks but didn't know you could have it for worming. We get Frontlined for fleas every month, and we get Profender worming spot on put on our necks every three months. In the UK it is only available with a vet's prescription. We have it rather than tablets because Eric is almost impossible to pill, and Flynn reacts badly to worming injections although he has no problem with other injections. It is easier to do both of us together with the icky neck stuff.

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 This week I have two short posts, both from March 2011.

Tired Tuesday with Eric.

I was quietly napping on the hairy blankie with my arms on the worktop and my head resting against the printer.

Suddenly the printer started yakking up paper and woke me up! I'm ready for you this time Mr. Printer. Try it again and you will be whapped into next week.

And Tummy and Tail Tuesday with Flynn.

Here's my tummy,

and here's my tail.

Some of you said you hope we don't pee indoors like we do outdoors. We never pee where we shouldn't when we are inside. We have a litterbox to use but we prefer to wait until we can go out in the garden. We only use it if we are bursting! Don't tell mum, but our favourite pooping place is the greenhouse, and our favourite peeing place is the Leylandii hedge.

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 I used to do occasional posts of favourite photos that might otherwise not have appeared in posts. I called it Friday's Favourite Fotos Flashback. This one comes from March 2011. The first picture was a copy of a photo as it was pre PC. The other two were probably scanned photos too.

We have always cuddled together since we were kittens.
In this first photo we are about two and a half years old.



In these next two photos we are about four years old.

For the first one I used Psychedelic at 65%, then Grey at 45%.

I couldn't find the originals of the other two pictures, they are probably on my old external hard drive, so I chose another photo for my second art.

I started with Beauty at 45%, then Scribble at 20%, and finished with Emboss at 40%.
