People And Pussycats
Introduction Today has been quite gorgeous and there are a lot of people about I have been out too walking and stocking up on provisions and I have just realised that I have forgotten to get something that I went out for, some Aldi Salted Caramel Ice Cream lollies, they are gorgeous and perfect for a hot day like today.

Cats In Windows
Introduction As you know from previous posts, I love to meet, take pictures and interact with my feline friends on my walks, but recently the weather has not been good and I have not done many morning walks and have not seen many cats outdoors. There have been a few but mostly it has been ........

Conversations With Cats In 'Nam (and a Dog)
Introduction This story is for the Vocal "Tall Tail" Challenge which you can read about below. After a chat with Heather Hubler who loves the cat videos of my meets with #CatsInNam (that's the Instagram and Twitter hashtag) I jokingly said I should record some of my encounters for the Vocal Challenge because, let's face it, animals do talk to us. Some have told me their names, to me to go away, and demanded food and attention.

To Catch A Cat
Introduction This is not actually about catching cats, well only in the sense of catching them as pictures or on video. Recently I have not seen many due to the inclement weather around Fenham as well as a trip to Edinburgh, and next week I shall be traipsing up to Alnwick by train and a lift from my friend Julie.

Walking In A Feline Flurry
Introduction People have remarked that I go out to take pictures of cats, but actually, that is just a residual extra to my walking. On my Google Pixel 4XL, I have the Google Fit application that is available from the Google Play Store, and set myself a target of seven thousand steps a day which is about three miles. I used to do eleven thousand steps a day but that meant that I had to go out both before and after work, and now that I work from home that became not impossible but just a chore.

Snow Cats
Introduction The title is a play on words because there are no cats out because of the snow and cold weather. Cats are incredibly sensible in that they are keeping warm and out of the cold, which is a lot more sensible than I am being on my walks.

The Dog, The Dog He's At It Again
This is for the Halo Collar and Vocal "Life Unleashed" Challenge. I haven’t had a dog as a pet for over twenty years, though as a kid I had three Alsatian dogs , well that last was an alsatian / labrador cross called Simba , a rescue dog. The other two were Sheena , and Nina (a pure breed but , shall we say, a little highly strung).

Too Cold For Cats
Introduction As you know I do a lot of walking and, to be honest, that has probably saved my life a few times although on some other times it has probably nearly killed me, and if that happened you wouldn't have to put up with these ramblings for me (I know there are many that complain that I write too much), but that is neither here nor there. I ignore a hell of a lot of writing and expect a lot of people to ignore my creations.

Dirk Wears White Socks
This is another story about #CatsinNam, well one cat in ‘Nam (That’s Fenham, not Viet-Nam). As you know part of my steps regime to keep myself reasonably fit is to walk around taking photographs of cats, incidentally, some new neighbours also have a cat so there may be more to share in future.
