Manly Monday!


Tom
: It was a frosty morning here, with temperatures barely clearing -6C (about 24F) but it has warmed up a bit now and it is sunny! I enjoyed my morning run in the crunchy fields!


Rather better than the other day when there was a lot of fog, although fog is perhaps manlier?


Here is a very manly indoor shot of me with the smaller of my two Kong barbells:


We got a package in the mail today and we were hoping it might be our Secret Paws but not yet! We were happy, though, because we did finally get our "Paws" Cat Blogosphere calendars!



Bibi-Chan: Yesterday, #1 actually sat down with us and a book for the first time in ages, so I went immediately to sit on her and I was richly rewarded! I got the most divine ear massage!


I just LOVE ear massages! They are by far the manliest activity one can indulge in!!!


Although sitting in a sun puddle is pretty nice too!


Wishing you all a wonderful week!

PS: Just a quick reminder that the auction for Brighton is running until January 5th. The site is here.

  1. Very manly of you to be out in the cold Tom. We love nothing better than a cold, crisp morning. And ear rubs are pretty good too Bibi.

    Your friends,
    Niamh & Ambrose

  2. You look very handsome and manly out in that very white frost Tommy.
    We can see from your expression Bibi that #1 has hit just the right spot with your ear massages.

  8. We think crunching during a romp sounds quite manly. It sounds like it would make a statement, and feel interesting, too!

  16. Watch your pawsies, dear Tommy. Don't want anything to hurt those fleet feet.
    Bibi ! The look of sheer ecstasy on your face, so adorable! Ear rubs are the best although some of us go mad for neck scritches even more.
    But we enjoy anything as long as we are with our mum. If you don't receive your Secret Paw, we would consider it an honour to step in and be it
    (although it won't be secret). We don't have a bloggie and we really appreciate everyone still letting us be a part of the cat bloging family. Mum still has 2 gifts to send, so adding another,especially to especially to such a dear family, is no trouble at all.

  20. Hope you wouldn't catch a cold out there tom. It's freezing outside. Stay safe! Warm hugs.

  21. We love to run in the crisp morning air too, but it would be even nicer if we had some snow too. And how we love those ear massages too - and we would never pass up a snooze in a warm sunbeam.

    Have a wonderful week.

  26. You can keep that cold weather.

    Hopefully, you will receive your Secret Paws package soon. I think they were a little late sending it. Keeping my paws crossed.

  29. Pleased to see there is a dog post on here. Thought it was going to be all catz.

    Us dogs need to stick together.

    Thank you for leaving a comment on mine after you had visited Bolo's. I will add you to my list when I can motivate Mistress.

    I see you know my friend JB. Seems I am destined to be frends with pesky catz.

    Mistress loves Tami-Chan's eyes so I guess we will be coming back.

    Pippa (I am a BOY with a girl's name just so you know).

    Oh, and we are quite near. Well sort of. Spain and Gib are not too far from France :D
