Power to the People

After finishing reading the novelisation of the 1970's TV comedy series, Man about the House, which I thoroughly enjoyed, I thought I would continue the light-hearted nostalgia theme with another 70's comedy series novelisation.

Cat Bites

Spotted the neighbour's cat jump in this box this morning, where he immediately began nibbling at cardboard, biting out a semi circle with the ease of a leaf-cutter 🐝 When I went outside that afternoon, I was shocked to see just how much progress he had made. I hope this isn't a sign of stress in the beautiful pwscat:

A Dreamy Kind of Day

Sunday Sunshine

The summer heatwave, still in full sway over sunny Swansea, let me into the garden for the day:

Slowly, but surely, this regular garden visitor is realising I'm a nice guy to hang out with. He used to be so timid when I came out into the garden, and now look at the furry fellow:

Man about the House

Living Stones

Finally potted up some Lithops "Living Stones" succulents with the kind of stone it mimics in the deserts of Africa to avoid being eaten. In the background, are Venus Fly Traps (red dragon & zipper strains) a red Crassula O. and, right at the back, Fenestaria (baby toes).

Escaping

Sat out in the back garden last night with the love of my life, trying to forget the rough edges of the world beyond...

Home Again

Home again. Jiggety jig.

And aren't these poppies in our front garden a sight for sore eyes!

Norwich Shopping

There was a Norwich tourist graphic art picture in our weekend Airbnb, and I decided to take a few photos I could generate my own art print from. To be honest, I am pretty pleased with the result:

My generated Art pic:

A fito-portrait of the seagull in the above 2 images. I snapped him just as he left the lamptop and took to the skies:

This is a really old street, quaint enough to be used in the Hari Pot-head movies:

My firstborn with Mrs P.L.

Another scene I photographed to generate an art print version. Haven't done it yet, but I will:

Went to the Norwich Imax in the evening to watch Disclosure.
