Great photo!

Must be something in the air- this is what my(BIG) little guy, Logan, was doing in my Caturday picture today😆

Logan, a large black & white cat lays on a striped carpet. He is holding his front paws like a bunny rabbit & his belly is extra fluffy. It’s very inviting but it’s a dangerous trap, many have been wounded before us & we value our fingers too much to risk losing them.

Wishing all my American friends a safe & successful No Kings Day - be careful out there💚 #Caturday, #Daftcat,#NoKingsDay

Logan, a very large black & white tuxedo cat is laying on his back, squinting his green eyes & holding his front paws in the air like a bunny. His belly is very fluffy but we may not touch him, it is forbidden. He supports No Kings Day, even though he’s Welsh.

That’s better than I can draw with my dominant hand 😁

I will keep his mother in my thoughts. This is a tragedy. May Mathew’s life be remembered as a blessing.

Just taking a ‘paws’ to wish you all a happy Caturday, wherever you are 💚

#Caturday #Blackcat

Two front paws, neatly crossed, with soft black toe beans showing on one paw - against a cream colour background. They belong to Jovie, a small black cat with a lot of attitude.

Reminds me very much of the early days of The Troubles, N Ireland.

Mr Loverman!

This is my Jovie, if she had been a boy she would have been Jovi, for Jon Bon. Now she’s named Jovie after the character in Elf.

A pretty, petite, black cat with a pink collar sits on top of a wood burning stove. The stove is not on, she is fine.

My friend’s father worked in Ardmore studios & he was tasked with carrying DDL around the set, between takes, because DDL was a method actor & wouldn’t get out of his Christy character to go have his lunch😆

Ursula Hanna @ursi1.bsky.social · 14d

He walked across the road in front of the opticians I worked in, in Bray Co. Wicklow (- where Ardmore studios is) while he was filming My Left Foot. I just sort of nodded & smiled at him as if he were one of our patients & he walked off laughing because he knew I hadn’t recognised him.

I hope she comes back next year; she looked so promising in the group dance. I think she had a real chance.(that’s almost a poem)

I wish Vicky had more confidence, for such a successful woman she seems to have incredibly low self esteem. I reckon once she stops letting her thoughts trip her up & just relaxes, she’s going to see herself in the last few shows, she has got rhythm & talent.

Sinners or The Monkey. I really enjoyed both, don’t know what that says about me.

Ursula Hanna @ursi1.bsky.social · 23d

I made a point to re-read all the classic books we had to read for school. Great Expectations, Bleak House, Silas Marner and so on, they were so much more enjoyable once homework & fear of getting it wrong was taken out of the equation.

I often say this. If you are either good, intelligent, or funny - you don’t need to tell people.

I think we should ban umbrellas. I’ve personally seen people who use umbrellas have children who are autistic. Also, every time I see people with umbrellas… it’s raining, therefore umbrellas obviously cause rain and autism. Ban the ‘brolly!

Ursula Hanna @ursi1.bsky.social · 27d

It’s thought that children who were called ‘Changelings’ were just autistic kids & the myth of the changeling child goes as far back as the myths of fairies. It sounds familiar doesn’t it: children who initially had seemed to reach their milestones suddenly regressed & became uncommunicative.

And they consider this as ‘working’.

53 year old UK resident - I second that! My Home Economics teacher told us, way back in the 1980s, that we would get upset stomachs if we didn’t rinse the soap off our dishes. Who wants soapy tasting dinner🤷🏻‍♀️

Oh that’s why they’re all over Wales too, whatever the Princess of Wales wants, the Princess of Wales gets - even if it’s foreign flags on our roundabouts.

Very true
