More reposted pictures for the windows photo challenge I thought I had shared these before, and a bit of a search found them.
They were part of the Southbank summer festival in 2013. Four years ago. Unbelievable. I thought it could have been no more than two. Continue reading
This week’s photo challenge is Windows. I am reposting two pictures of MasterB; one sitting on the sill outside the kitchen window, remarkably insouciant – we live in the second floor (make that the third if you are in a country that counts the ground floor as the first floor); the second is of him looking out at the night at das Boot.
Not a care in the world
All these photos were taken around Camden on Sunday afternoon. All are of things seen through windows.Some of the windows belong to student offices. I suspect you can guess which ones.
Living in the city, I seem to have an awful lot of windows in my photos, so here’s a bunch. And naturally, there’s a picture of my cat among them.
Cat’s medical problems this week have brought me up close and personal with the possibility of his death sooner rather than later.
But hey, let’s look on the bright side; cats have nine lives, right? So depending on how many he’s used up, there could still be quite a lot of life left.
So, time for a bit of accounting.
I’m going to bracket all the sitting in the middle of the street as a car comes towards him as one.
I don’t think any of his fights were life threatening, though he was playing fast and loose with his looks.
Then was the time he fell off the boat, that’s obviously a second.
He’s stood up to foxes, but I’ve not seen any of them go for him.
I’ve had lilies in the flat and they are poisonous, but fortunately he’s not succumbed.
Once he jumped from the window onto the roof, had a lovely time exploring and gazing down at my worried face, and then couldn’t get back in. I rescued him with an improvised bridge made from an old bookshelf. So I don’t think that counts. He wanted to do it again the next night, and I have to make sure that particular window is never very wide open.
He got stuck behind my mother’s washing machine once, but rescuing him only damaged his dignity.
There’s only one other life threatening occasion I can think of, and that’s the time he fell out of the window. This is what happened. Continue reading
