After helping out with painting walls at the new Workers’ Gallery in Ynyshir yesterday, today was much more restful. The clocks went back last night so we had a rare lie-in this morning and a lazy day, clearing the last of the runner beans off the allotment – we picked a carrier bag full! GuessContinue reading “Staying In”

Cat At The End Of A Long Day
Been away today, across the border in England and just got back. It was a long day. The cats were pleased to see us and Ming the Merciless snuggled down on the stool next to my feet, in pink slippers and purple socks. My feet, that is, not Ming. It’s nice to go visiting butContinue reading “Cat At The End Of A Long Day”
Jamming And A Hot Cat
It’s probably been the hottest day of the year so far, in the upper 20sC and the cat is sleeping on a fleecy blanket on top of the hot water boiler! And she wears a fur coat! I ended up in the kitchen for hours making jam. There’s been a glut of blackcurrants on theContinue reading “Jamming And A Hot Cat”
Feline Muse
Had another long day behind a computer and ended up sitting in front of the telly quite late with a cat sleeping on my lap. I haven’t done any drawing so far today so the cat will have to be my model. She likes posing. I have used my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8, withContinue reading “Feline Muse”
Tiny Temper
Heard a lot of noise on the roof around 6pm. Sparta Puss was facing off a very large and angry seagull. Husb and I tried to persuade the cat to come down but she was having none of it, so we left them to it. A few minutes later she came storming into the houseContinue reading “Tiny Temper”
Monkey Magic
Greetings trained apes. Sparta Puss here. I am now digitised. The idiot she-monkey usually scribbles into a book with sticks with dirt in them but now she’s managed to smear the dirt into the pooter box! It’s Monkey Magic! (One for the baby boomers 😀 ) She says the smeared dirt looks like me. She’sContinue reading “Monkey Magic”
More Lazy Scribbles
Lazing in bed this morning, before going out into the annual sales to buy next year’s birthday and Xmas presents (as I do because I’m an obsessive nutcase) I grabbed the Tablet and had a lazy scribble as Sparta Puss cwtched on the end of the bed. I don’t like it as much as conventionalContinue reading “More Lazy Scribbles”
Fluffy Scribbles
I’m sitting in bed, it’s quite early. The storm is still raging outside and Little Ming is cwtched up next to me, so I grabbed my Tablet and tried out a few scribbles using the Magic Marker app. It’s convenient for practicing something like fur because I don’t have to faff around with different colouredContinue reading “Fluffy Scribbles”
Nadolig Llawen
Here’s one of Husb’s drawings for a change. He caught Sparta Puss beautifully in this digital drawing. I played with it in Adobe Photoshop to make it Chrismassy. So Nadolig Llawen to everyone (that’s Merry Xmas in Welsh / Cymraeg).
Spartypants And The Idiots
Greetings hairless apes. Sparta Puss here. The bald monkeys have been rushing around like idiots for the past few days. They say they’re on holiday but then they go and do loads of D.I.Y. which is hard work, stressful and they are grumpy all the time. But what do I care? I don’t have toContinue reading “Spartypants And The Idiots”
