I admit...


...that I do have something of a passion for handbags. I delight in nibbling on their handles and, more recently, in sleeping on them. Last night I enjoyed snuggling up against a black, leather Furla affair and this morning a Betty Barclay number.

I'm sure this isn't difficult to understand.

This creative stuff isn't really my thing. I know that Tony liked to run through clay, but it's not for me. No. I'm out of here.

Why wouldn't I be relaxed? I was submerged in a soft, feather pillow and enjoying the sound of Helena's voice as she talked on the phone. I was stroked without pause and in H-E-A-V-E-N. I sensed a concern for my health, but no, I was just very, very relaxed.

Yesterday evening I lay in my second most favorite spot, under the sofa.
Helena was working on the floor with some papers and I took time out to go over to her for a cuddle. Jonathan was on the computer and I was tempted to nip his toes, but reconsidered. The thick tennis socks looked inviting, but ....something told me not to do it. I guess I sensed a tension in the air and all eyes on me.

Squeaky Clean

Yesterday I spent a short time sitting in my favorite spot on the landing, overlooking the staircase, and in the evening we had pasta with bacon.

Today Gordon and I were given a wet wash. I don't think that Gordon enjoyed it particularly, but he seemed to take to being towel dried. Personally I enjoyed the massaging motion and my fur seemed much softer after the experience. We were then given a dish of pine nuts. Yummy.


This evening I sat in my favorite spot again and I stayed there for some time. I liked it when Helena stroked me every time she passed.

Tonight we had rice and grapes with our yoghurt. I think I'll save the grapes for later.
