Kitty news

I am giving way to public demand...here are the kitty shots...




Our eyes are not yet open, but claws seem to be working just fine. The dirty thumbnail belongs to Darling d who cheekily suggested that I use photoshop to clean it. She is wearing a skirt that is as short as a curtain pelmet, for those of you who remember them, and it was a near thing that Tiddles was provided with enough surface area to cling onto. I would like to be able to say that it was not like that in my day...but my mother used to say that - because in my day (the 60's and 70's) our skirts were even shorter.

I have just returned from a happy morning with my musical autists, where I played the harmonium a lot...cos I like it...and luckily so did they. Last week one of them said they liked Amel Bent, who is a French singer. I found this on you-tube and adapted it for the harmonium...I will leave you to imagine what my version sounds like.
I think the text is wonderful though, especially for a public who are considered "different" by the mainstream of society.
The first verse starts:
I have only one philosophy, which is to be accepted for who I am, whatever other people say...

Good enough for me...

Oh, SO much cuteness. If I were on the same continent, I'd take one!

They are cute kittens indeed.

I remember our kitten shinning up my sister's leg when she was wearing one of those short skirts... oh how we laughed. Except her.

Your puss certainly looks a proud mum!

Lovely kitties. Carmen would love one of those.

I'm going to sidestep the cuteness and thank you for the intro to Amel Bent. R&B with a bit of lyrical substance.

Rosie said...

lovely to see you out and about Mike, and even capable of planning a doggie dinner...

I am usually a bit snobby about French rnb, so I have to thank my autists once again for teaching me and opening my narrow horizons

My late lamented step-grandmother referred to such skirts as "pussy pelmets". Which, for the picture in question, would at least have a feline excuse for politeness.
