Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 This week the flashback comes from March 2011, and was a Mancat Monday.

Being a mancat means you have to do lots of hard work to keep your property safe. We thought we would show you a typical Monday patrol so you can see how hardworking we are.

Eric: Any fresh earth piles must be checked out. There may have been rabbits digging here or even a badger. The nice fresh earth is good for pooping in though because we don't have to do much digging ourselves.

If there are any big holes I have to put my head down because you never know, there may be a rabbit down there.

Flynn: Keep your nose low to the grass to make sure you don't miss any introoder smells.

And when passing the pond have a quick look to see if there are any fevvers sitting on it or fishies swimming in it.

Eric: I walk through the daffodils because introoders always seem to leave their smell on them.

Flynn: And when I catch a strange smell, I floof my tail to let Eric know.

There are always a lot of mouse holes beside the stream so I put my paw in to see if anyone is home.

When we are sure everything is as it should be, we make our way back home......

..........and maybe have a quick rest on the way.

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

This week I have two short posts from March 2011, and were posted as Friday Favourite Fotos Flashback.

First post:18.03.2011. Photos of this post most likely from late 2000 to early 2001.

Eric: If you've got it, flaunt it.

Flynn: I prefer to be a little more modest

Second post: 25.03.2011

Eric: One of my favourite places used to be in the airing cupboard next to the hot water tank. I don't fit in there very well now though.

Flynn: You never could get right up to the top like me though.

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

This week the flashback comes from March 2011 and was called:

"Eric the Photographer", but we both took photos.

 Eric: It was Flynn's turn to take the photos this week but he said I could do it again if I wanted to seeing as I did a good job last week.

My first photo was of dad's roller. We have to keep well away from it when he has it behind the big tractor because it would be very dangerous for us.

Then I took a photo in Buddy and Silver's field, but they didn't want their photos taken so kept out of the way. Mum could have straightened the photo for me, but she said it is better to keep it the way I took it.

This is the far end of their field. Mum says you can tell when it is me taking the photos because you can see my whiskers in all of them.

I took a photo of my dad. He looks very tall.

I was fed up with taking photos so I had a roll in the grass. It made the sky tip sideways. Flynn said he would take over so mum gave him the camera for the next few photos.

Flynn: I took a photo of our dad to show Eric how to not make him look so tall.

Then I took a picture of Buddy and Silver's field, but they were still keeping out of the way.

On our way back I took a picture of my dad and Eric. Sorry dad, I chopped your head off like I do to mum.

Then we went in the field nearest to home and I took a shot of the top field where you can just see Snowdon and Danni.

On our way back to the garden I took a photo of the stables and Quest is looking over the fence waiting for his supper. After that we both went back in the garden to relax in the evening sun.

I did straighten this photo that Eric took for the art. I used Landscape at 60%, then just a touch of Illusion at 20%.

None of the other photos would really work for the art, so I chose this one from around the same time. I used Red Blush at 40%, then Emboss at 75%.
