Tama-Chan Tuesday


Tama-Chan: Well, Dear Friends, the heat has returned with a vengeance! It is supposed to be 39°C (that is 102°F) today, and going up to 40°C (104°F) on Thursday. We are planning on saying indoors and staying cool! #1 has been taking Ollie out quite early in the morning when it is still relatively cool, so he can run around a bit. It is supposed to break on Friday though, so we just have to wait.

I think I have achieved a new level of perfection in my upward dangle:



And now that there are just the two of us left, I guess I have to occasionally hang out with Blue Boy...

Manly Monday


Ollie: It's very manly to come running when your #1 calls you!


As is napping with your girlfriend!



Da Genj: Just a mancat on a cat tree...


And looking cute while napping:



The Big V: How much handsomeness is too handsome? 



Have a great week and keep cool, everyone! We're supposed to be getting another major heatwave in France this week

Snuggles on Sunday


Tama-Chan: No doubt about it! The winner of this week's best snuggle pic is Miss Violette!


That being said, I continue to provide #1 with a constant stream of top-quality snuggles!




The little Blue Boy, aka Genji, is a little surprised by all this as he is used to having the lion's share of #1's time, but he and Ollie remain masters of her bedroom:




 Here are Ollie and Ms. C's Blackie the other day, hanging with #1 as she watched Ms. C working with a young stallion:


And just in case you were wondering, here is #1 with The Big V:


Wishing you all a Snuggly Sunday!

Sei-Chan's Souvenir Saturday


Rainbow Sei: Hello, Dear Friends, and greetings from the Rainbow Bridge. We have been able to relax a little at this end, following all that rushing around with #1.I have to tell, I spotted someone I knew from a distance this week. Remember the wonderful Japanese photographer who took those lovely portraits of me? Well, we were really sad that he headed to the Bridge this past week, aged only 64! So, I thought I would start with a photo of me and him:


The rest of my selections for this week are also summer photos.

Violette and Vidock Vendredi


Violette: Pretty Neighs, Everyone! At the moment, The Big V and I are in a field that is a little way from Ms. C's house, along with a bay Normandy Cob girl called Victoria. So, #1 makes a point of stopping to see us either on her way to or her way from seeing Ms. C. Most of the time, we are right at the barrier:



But occasionally, we are farther away and we are busy grazing, so #1 has to admire us (me...) from afar:



Vidock: As a rule, when I see #1 coming over, I immediately go to greet her. Here I am with my cob girlfriend, Victoria:


Unlike a certain Miss Violette who can be a little slow on the uptake...


C'm on, #1! I am sure you have some nice treats for your sweet boy?


Excuse me whilst I have a hair shake to get those pesky flies off me.

Thankful Thursday


Genji here, everyone! I hope you're doing well. Thanks for your concern the other day. I am eating better, and #1 is planning to get in some new food for me. I hope it's yummy!

There is nothing new in this but, today, we are thankful to be together and to have our #1 with us.

I have been enjoying sunpuddles:


Queen Tama has been sunning herself too:


Ollie is thankful that he now has his official sticker on the car! 


And the Vs are thankful that #1 is bringing them treats regularly!


PS: This post ran away with us and posted itself on Wednesday instead of Thursday! Our apologies. Had there been no comments, we would have deleted it and started again, but as they were a couple of comments, we are leaving it as is.

Woofie Wednesday


Ollie: It is getting hot again, but #1 doesn't take me out too much when it's too hot, and I am pretty good at pacing myself and drinkings lots of water, so it's all good for the time being.

First, here is a pic of me hanging with Noelle and her big brother, Blackie, over at Ms. C's:


Here are some fun photos of me in the big field from a few days ago:




And here I am, resting in the shade under a tree:


It looks like we won't be getting any rain for a while yet. Everything is getting to be very dry.
