Daisy files herself

Daisy decided to help with the filing

In preparation for Dara’s visit, we are having a bit of a clean up around the house. Aude decided that she would file away some of her paperwork. Daisy decided she would pitch in, and has helpfully filed herself.

In the days before the internet, you would have had to sit around the house waiting for your own cats to do something cute. Now, with the advent of technology, all you need to do is log on to your PC if you want to see cute kitten antics.


Recent evidence emerges indicating that my cats’ weight problems began with an unhealthy relationship with food developed early in life…

A very lazy Daisy…

Some more snaps of my ever-tolerant models…

Aude writes her blog

Maintaining a blog takes more dedication and time than most people imagine. Aude celebrates after completing an entry on her own blog.

Poorly kitty

Calypso is feeling rather sorry for herself right now…

That’s right, our little Calypso seems to have a bit of a stomach ache. She’s been a little four-legged vomit machine for the last day and a half, although she seems a little better this afternoon. We’ve got her a nice, warm bed to sleep on and some kitten milk to get her stomach back on the mend.

In the meantime, we’re being very careful about where we step.

It’s a wet and miserable Saturday here in Canterbury, so not many exciting photos to share today. We spent most of the morning in bed, trying to avoid the wet weather as long as we could, then went out for a bite of lunch at a new tapas restaurant in town started by one of Aude’s former colleagues who took voluntary redundancy a few months ago and ploughed all the money into her own business.

Since it was a day for indoor activities, I thought I’d try to figure out why my flash wasn’t giving me good pictures. As suspected, it was user error – I’ve figured out the correct settings now, thanks to Daisy being my very patient model all afternoon. She actually doesn’t look like she’s too interested.

Daisy

Like most photographers, I’ve had it with size zero models. These days, I prefer to shoot women with a few curves on them — like Daisy!

Marjory is here for the weekend, so we’ve got an exciting evening planned at the new Cuban restaurant in town. Maybe a few mojitos will take my mind off the weather?

Big shout out to Dara on her birthday. Happy birthday, Dara!
