We often have the 2-person play off, plus a degree of misremembering (on all sides) so this sign is often handy* to avoid double dinners (*depending on whether you are pictured on the sign or not…)

One side of a double-sided sign with a painting of a cat saying “please feed me”. The cat is a tuxedo/black and white cat with green eyes and looks slightly imploring

The other side of a painted sign with the same tuxedo/black and white cat, looking unimpressed. The sign says “the cat has been fed (honestly)

Very difficult choice as several absolute classics

Neither of these tiny darlings nearly flooded the house by turning on the tap in the boot room when the plug was pushed in because it had previously been removed and left of the floor… All their faces said was ‘oh my goodness, look what someone did, they tried to drown us!’

2 very sweet and definitely innocent black kittens, one really is a lot larger than the other but not as much as the picture suggests “small, far away”

1) the food here is great - suggest you come try it. 2) fence?? Surely that’s a (slight sad) *wall* fence /fĕns/ noun A structure serving as an enclosure, a barrier, or a boundary, usually made of posts or stakes joined together by boards, wire, or rails.

A dry stone wall incorporating a tree structure made with different sized and shaped stones. No mortar needed

Not sure I need encouragement

Have to admire the ingenuity though. Our estates team put proper effort into this solution

Corrugated plastic sheeting to catch significant leaks from ceiling that is over 70 years past intended life expectancy, draining into indoor gutter and drainpipe into a bucket 👌

Corrugated plastic sheeting attached to batten on dilapidated ceiling by cable ties to divert significant leakage away to edge of corridor. The corridor was built in haste and not designed to last more than a couple of years, yet here we are nearly 80 years later. At least the ingenious solution avoids the regular bed slalom around buckets.

Today one of us evicted a mouse nest (plus 2 mice) from the garage. This might* not be the individual pictured, although moral support was provided and performance commented upon (loudly). The unwelcome tenants will no doubt be back. *it wasn’t

Large, elderly, black and white asleep on the arm of a sofa, because it’s the only bit just in sunshine yet. He will migrate right later to continue his passive Sun worship. He does not look poised for mouse catching duties.

Took a walk to the Quayside to take a break from the hospital the night before my father died. A grand send off for someone who’d done a lot of shepherding.

Thomas feels that every day should be national pet day

And just because cats’ feet (when attached to cats) are adorable and make me smile

Sharing back and sending best wishes to all who celebrate and those who support your right to do so 🫶

A bunch of white daffodils in a blue vase on a kitchen table. Sadly the scent can’t also be shared, which I like but OH thinks is like burnt plastic. Then again he can’t smell bluebells or freesias, which is a terrible affliction

Tom also a big pickled cucumber fan

Thomas, contemplating the truth that what goes up must come down at some point

Large, elderly, black and white cat wondering why it’s always harder to descend and why the house keeper hasn’t pruned out the water shoots yet

This is the remains of the one my OH has made tonight 😋

Very yummy home made pizza with rocket, goats cheese and chorizo (and *definitely* no pineapple

mmo.aiircdn.com/22/69748bdae... Well done @gwr.com for a sensibly closing the track. Looks like with #ClimateChange we really need a more northerly route to avoid most of Devon and Cornwall getting cut off regularly

Thomas, from 2016, seriously considering life, the universe, and everything

Tom is sat looking a bit perplexed about where the tree has gone. He checked behind the sofa yesterday, just in case. The answer to this question is ‘to the goats’ because apparently they are a goat delicacy 🤷🏻‍♀️

Elderly cat wondering what happened to the strange, big , green tree that sat here for a couple of weeks

Thomas is satisfied with the staff providing adequate amounts of sunshine for a morning nap in comfort

I saw this chap earlier today in the village - clearly had a big night the night before!

Pumpkin with carved face sitting outside a door on top of a food waste bin. He appears to be vomiting pumpkin seeds and innards out of his mouth

Jo Morrison@jomorrison· Oct 30

He looks like a very friendly pumpkin and unlikely to scare off many witches 😊 When I was in India recently was delighted to see they painted scary pumpkins each new moon to perform a similar function

Thomas doesn’t care who you are, what you look like or what you believe in. Thomas just wants you to be calm, kind, provide a warm lap (without moving for several hours) and a ready supply of Dreamies. The world would be a better place if everyone was more like Thomas 🫶 #LoveNotHate

We all need to be more like Jane and encourage ’good trouble’. Sad news.

Whilst it’s been lovely to go away, meet new people, and make some firm friends, it’s also very lovely to come home
