Our Yin & Yang rescue kitties (2 of 5)
Both are Turkish Vans, but neither is keen on swimming!)
Ted: White & fluffy
Bear: Black & sleek - a true panfur/void (was the runt of the litter, all the white ink had run out when it came to him)

Here they are snuggled together 😻😻

An image from my book cover of A Midsummer Night’s Dream ~ William Shakespeare. The background is a magical magenta, on which a golden filigree crescent moon, is the stage for Titania & Bottom. Puck & other woodland faeries, are gently flying around above the two characters all of whom are as white as a night’s full moon.

Sunset at Los Gigantes, Tenerife. The golden sun is sinking into the sea; as it sets, a golden path is created, across the sea, to thee 🌅 #Sunset #LosGigantes #Tenerife

As it’s now #Wedsneigh
Yesterday, I arrived home & was surprised to be met by Cutie (LB’s name for her). Cutie came to meet me instead of Blossom. Obvs Bloss’ watch was slow, as she suddenly appeared & trotted up ❤️

Cutie is a brown horse, with distinctive white blaze nose & fetlocks. She is trotting across the grass to meet me 🥰Cutie (rescue) & Blossom: the darling duo. 
Bloss is a wee stocky pony, with a golden brown coat, golden mane, & cream/grey tail 🥰🥰
These two belong to my children 🙌🏾

Two cute pale brown otters, pose for a picture. Their water tank has deep turquoise water, with the sun shining through creating dancing white light 🤎🤎

I’ve seen Meta & the Fediverse being debated (sounds like a film title!)
For me, I’d say it’s questionable, but that’s likely because I’m a highly sceptical person.
I’m getting hints of #CambridgeAnalytica from the most recent ruling: bbc.co.uk/news/technology-6566

Blue sky, sunshine glittering on the little waves of a various blue sea. Pebbles of the beach in the foreground. In the distance is the shadowy shape of Dungeness Power Station.

The meme states: That moment when you are desperately hoping the person in front of your doesn’t get the last raccoon.
Glass-fronted vending cabinet, filled with crisps (chips to our US friends), sweets (candies), etc., with a raccoon sat in one of the vending slots. S/he looks to have made themselves comfortable on a crisps ‘pillow’ 😂

#NoMowMay
Keeping with our tradition of not mowing for the summer (though we do cut edges and pathways) our lawns are now progressing well. We’ve an abundance of what many call weeds, but the bees love many of those ‘weeds’. Please if you can, find a way to keep a few.
This perfect dandelion dock is readying for take off.
#SaveTheBees

This is a near perfect white and fluffy dandelion dock, looking ready for the seeds to take flight. The grass is a lush green from all the rain. In some magical traditions, dandelions are associated with the goddess Aphrodite because of her connection to bees.

The sun has just come out and the sky is a lovely pale sky-blue. There is a little white fluffy cloud, which acts as a perfect back drop to these pink, rose, and vanilla blossoms…

Sandy Thomson - Horse Race Trainer - blames people who were trying to raise awareness regarding the very cruel Grand National Race. I think Mr Thomson needs to take a closer look at himself.
The ‘jumps’ (a ridiculous description) are far too high.
If the horses start to withdraw (they cannot see the ground beyond as it’s obscured by the giant fences) they will be whipped to jump.

Betting trumps animals lives.

Rescue kitties. Two cat brothers, curled in opposite directions. The black one to the left is a pure void. The white one to the right is pure white. They are Yin and Yang in cat form 🖤🤍

@Romston Thank you, as always, Romston.
I am very ill with COVID infection at the moment, so your wishes for perseverance ring true (day 8 & struggling). Our 2 year old has tonsillitis.
Have yourself a fabulous Friday, sensational Saturday, & scintillating Sunday. Stay blessed Rommy 🙌🏾🙏🏽🙌🏾

#Thursday #Thoughts #Pareidolia
Have recently seen these two handbags being promo’d on my IG TL.
The first looks like a Star Wars character; the second looks a cross between suspicious or a relation to Clippy.
Open pics to full-size for the visual effect.

Handbag sale - this burgundy/brown bag has silver eyelets at the top comers & dips in the middle so that the front takes on a face shape - the eyelets look like staring-eyes (I’m a pareidoliac)This is another handbag that has a look of suspicion. Handles are attached to gold bars  - the combination gives the look of top of head & eyes. The band that tightens the top, creates a long narrow nose. Hints of suspicion & possible relation to Clippy.

Isn’t Mother Nature amazing 🙌🏾

An inhospitable spot, growing between painted wood logs, that support stone steps, against a a volcanic rock wall. This little variegated green & purple leaf beauty, with its wee rose-red flowers, has found a way…..

#ThickTrunkTuesday #Trees #Palms
Mother nature’s parasols 💚

A terrifically thick-trunked palm tree, with wonderful fronds curving outward. The trunk has the characteristics of the outer of a pineapple. The shade beneath is so wonderfully cool.As above, but different types of palm, with spreading fan-like leaves. The sky is a cloudless blue.
