We woke up to high overcast both days this weekend and it definitely knocked the edge off the high temperatures. It's still hot but a breeze came up on Sunday afternoon and we almost surfed on it we were so happy.
Monday is a holiday here and to make the point (that it is not a work day) F is going to Salamina to join the name day celebration of a friend's husband. They are the parents of the cat-torturer. I'm not going. It's not the cat-torturer (he has grown up a year and learned stuff about cats), but lots of other people are also going to be there celebrating so F told me to stay at home
There is going to be a barbeque.
I bet they have chicken. 😾
F has made a pavlova and a zucchini cake for the party.
This week F has been visiting cousin Byron. His humans are on holiday.

Cousin Byron is only a distant cousin (his stripes go up and down instead of round and round).
I suppose I should feel sorry for Cousin Byron, he doesn't get to go on holiday with his humans.
Maybe I'm not a very generous cat but I'm not keen on sharing my humans with other cats.

That's tough, missing out on a barbecue with chicken.
ReplyDeleteGail says that Lord Byron was a dog lover, as you can read about on one of my predecessor Bertie's early blog posts: https://bouncingbertie.blogspot.com/2010/07/smelling-of-roses_19.html
Toodle-oo!
Nobby.
Hmmmm not sure I wanna like Lord Byron (in any of hirs incarnations). We are going to read Berties post though.
DeleteWell, lovely as Byron may be, he is not as handsome as you Mr T.
ReplyDeleteThank yoy JayCee. F tells me that too, but she says he does sad eyes quite well.
DeleteHari OM
ReplyDeleteMe neither, Tigger. I have read several of his poems but can't recall or recite a word! Your cuz is a handsome dude, but not as handsome as you - and clearly not as adventurous! Hugs and whiskeries, YAM-aunty xxx
He's a smoochy dude - he plays in F's hair! xxx Mr T
DeleteI totally understand about not sharing your humans
ReplyDeleteEverytime I come home I get sniffed and interrogated by everyone around here
When we leave for work I sniff the cousins downstairs while she is locking the door, so I can know which ones she has been 'talking to'.
DeleteIs it a holiday for the Feast of the Assumption? August 15 is a big day in a number of European countries for that reason. This old fashioned soul still thinks of Greece and Turkey as Asia Minor, though I hear them described now as Europe. Especially when they're wanting in on the EU!
ReplyDeleteBoud i do believe that what the day is called in English. In Greek 'Panagia', the dormition of Mary. The friend's name is Pannagiotis. Imagine getting a public holiday on your name day. hope your eye is well on the way to best condition. xxx Mr T
DeleteI have never seen a cat with stripes like Byrons. Sorry you must stay home alone while F parties with BBQ chicken people. I can't recite any poetry at all, no matter who wrote it. glad you are getting a breeze and a break in high heat temps
ReplyDeleteF can only recite 'bush' poetry. There aren't many people who regard it as the height of intellectual sophistocation despite its cultural importance.
DeleteI bet they have chicken at the BBQ! Maybe F will be kind and bring some home for you. I have to say your Cousin Byron is a handsome fella with his unusual stripes - I hope he hasn't been too sad with his humans away.
ReplyDeleteNo need to be around cat torturers, little ones need to be taught when they are young how to be nice to animals.
