Sunday Selfie time!

Hello, and welcome to a another weekend selfie. 


This week Mrs H and I have been preparing for the inevitable slew of firework displays that spoil the tranquility of the East Lambtonshire county area. Noise like the war has broken out again, along with flashes so bright that I was able to send old Ned out to do an extra 2 hours of gardening. 

Here in the village, we have quieter celebrations, revelling in winter fare consisting of hot toddies, and puddings rich in treacle, apples and cream. The telling of tales is allowed, but has to be done by candlelight in an aromatic setting, and by that I don't mean folks have catnip pipes, but nutmeg and cinamon, that sort of thing. 

After a final glass is raised to friends old and new, by the light of the stars only, we all wend our way to our beds. Thankfully, this year we have not had to avoid tripping over any of farmer Clarksin's sheep. In previous years they have managed to break into the fresh silage supplies and have end up drunk and scattered liberally around the village, hooves up, and bleating out of tune!

So fully sober, well I am anyway, Mrs H I can not fully vouch for as her bun looks more tousled than normal and the knitting needles holding it together far more askew, lets get on with the selfies!



Erin, thats me, lies part curled on my grey fleece bed cover. My body head and legs point to the right and my front left paw rests in part on a wooden handled metal comb. I am clearly enjoying the sun on my back from the window, which is making the fur on my back shine auburn.


We are joining the Sunday Selfies, hosted by the wonderful Kitties Blue and their mum, Janet Blue, from the Cat on My Head blog in America. Click this sentence to visit Janet Blue's site.

  1. The village celebrations sound much nicer than the noisy fireworks. Thankfully we only hear them in the distance here. Your selfie is lovely.

  2. How lovely and cosy your autumnal festivities sound, ERin. Here, We have yet to see rain. Mummy heard it rained in the town centre yesterday, but We didn't have any skywater in Our neighbourhood. Though the sky is now furry cloudy and it looks as if We might see some later this afternoon.
    Your selfie is gorgeous.

    1. Now that I don't understand. I understand Amazon do have criteria for reviews, but I understood anyone who has bought a copy should be able to leave a review. Maybe there was a hitch snag or glitch? If you could try again later, maybe? Do tell me how you get on and maybe it needs to be raised with them as an issue....
      Thank you for thinking of us, all reviews really help.

  8. All those loud noises make for bad times for the sensitive ears of pets, that's for sure. Glad your village is more reserved....

    Love that sunpuddle selfie!!

  9. Your celebrations sound a lot more exciting than ours!

    Oddly enough this past weekend has been much subdued. I wonder if the cost of living crisis has bitten really deep here in NZ. We have had some but not the usual madness but the 5th if on a Tuesday this year so we shall see.

    1. Thank you, we prefer things quiet around here, well, everything except snoring it seems. I do hope you enjoy the read, and can leave a review if you do. The Tabbies of Trout Town tried to review on Amazon and couldn't for some reason.
      Watch out for book 2 coming next year...
