All that JAZZ!

Hello and welcome to The Sunday Selfies!    



We are joining The Kitties Blue, from The Cat on My Head blog, for the weekly celebration of blogs and bloggers from across the world and across the species.

To join in, get the Linky link code from their website– add it to your page– and enjoy the hop!





And now here is my selfie for the week:-




   In this weeks selfie I can be seen practicing my clarinet pose for the village Jazz Night I shall be hosting. Mrs H says I should do the silent versions whilst I practice rather than wake the neighbours five miles away. I agreed as long as she sang silent night, with the emphasis on the silent. MOL

   What instruments do you guys like to play?

   To see what our pals are up to this week, please go to the Kitties Blue site, or if available, click the links below, and Enjoy the Hop!

  1. Oh, that is a STUPENDOUS selfie, Your Highness!
    We are all mewsic fans here, you know.
    Especially Mummy - she caterwauls all the time, she has a caterwauling teacher and she goes to Caterwauling Club twice a week.
    A Jazz night sounds great!

    1. Heck, that sounds a lot of practice. Maybe you could give her some lessons for reasonable rates–ten minutes for a bag of treats and nip mouse? Now cats rock the jazz, we do. Maybe you should form your own band and tour?

    1. It sure does as it's a gigantic kickstick that Summer and Janiss gave me. Mrs H won't let me play a proper clarinet in the palace anymore in case I break what's left of the glass, MOL ;)

    1. Hi, Brian. I'm sure getting into the swing of it, and way more fun than air guitar as I can see where the finger holes are. ;)

  6. Oh Princess, you singing silent mews or jingles out loud would be music to my ears and heart. The shape of your pose looks like a lil' Greek lyre (string instrument). You just make my heart all fluttery inside. Purr purr purr.

    Paw kisses, smooches, hugs to my musical dove. Luv, Your Prince V (& Kerry) of Noir Kitty Mews

  11. You take your clarinet practise very seriously, not even slowing up when you take your lovely selfie.

    1. Well when you're in the groove you just go with the flow... though having the timer set and an able bodied (ish) housekeeper helps too ;)

    1. Sounds like you have a mixed bag of music in your place, clearly vocal led. I sometimes sing the suppertime blues– though I do draw the line at Mrs H singing rag(duster) time blues! MOL

    1. .Oh thank you, Ruby, you are hired! I If you do vocals or instruments, I'm sure we could fit in a solo number for you too. Maybe you could launch your career with us and start your own band?
