Eric, I could love that cat too. I would coax him with kindness, and feed him with love.
I know you have read of my escapades with the strays in Spain. A lot of them were very wild, but they used to come running at the sound of my calls, they would let me treat their cuts and bites too.....ok, once or twice I got a fistful of claws.....but it didn't stop me going back.
I think cats instinctively know those who mean them no harm....but I can't prove my theory.

Gorgeous! What a shot of colour - just what I needed. Tell me these aren't all growing outside right now - I'm already green with envy :)

They were all down Mercer Park, and most of them were in the new sensory garden.

Today in Pictures, a windy day but for the most part sunny, so up the Coppice we went.

1. Time to sit and watch the windmills.
2. I think a theme is developing here.
3. Get up from that too quickly and I could find myself at the top of Avenue Parade.
4. And now the rocks theme.
5. There is a lot of exposed sandstone here.
6. Right I've had enough of rocks now.
7. Its a Gorse bush.
8. The mild weather has started the buds into bursting mode.
9. These wouldn't have been here if we had ice and snow, the birds would have stripped them.
10. The voice in my head says its time to go, well I think its in my head.

Like the monument best,that pond looks a little empty......hope your Knees dried out ok ;)

Re: Today in pictures
 

I always say, if its not wet, you are not doing it right. It was my bum today, sitting on wet moss to take snaps of rocks.

Re: Today in pictures
 

but I normally don't get wet knees like what I did today!!!!:D

Re: Today in pictures
 

The knees are the easy part, it takes imagination and expertise to wet the other bits with persistent regularity, you may want to buy some dubbin.

Re: Today in pictures
 

nah ... next time i'll wear my waterproof trousers :p

Re: Today in pictures
 

Love the reflections in the pond

I had a drive to Gawthorpe Hall today.
Gawthorpe Hall is an Elizabethan country house on the banks of the River Calder, in Padiham for those who didn't know.

A bit bored after visiting Toscos for my wine I decided to have a look at our NEW station, never been on it for many years.
Anyway a few quick snaps for today in pictures, then it's time to open a bottle.

The last three were taken with a little Panasonic pocket camera.

I was on the other side of the river yesterday walking up the river valley and got some pics of the hall from the back
