Was a beautiful day here..sun shone all day long!
Sculpture is coming along nicely now..shouldn’t be too long till it’s all done and I can show you all.
Got some pics of Suki sunbathing lol and caught her in the act! You will see!
THought I’d take a few pics of plants which I think may not last much longer…some are still blooming and have lots more buds. Bloomin’ British weather eh?

Fairy for Sue

You've some lovely plants there Pixi! Don't the water lilies look gorgeous, I could just dabble my tootsies in that lovely water, and I don't mind if Suki, has a drink at the same time! She's such a pretty kitty! Very like our Bear!

Some lovely pictures there. Is Suki after fish - do you have any in there?

Very nice Pixi, I have four cats here and three of them love to drink out of my ponds and water features, put fresh water out and they ignore it, lol.......

3 Aug, 2011

 

We had a border collie who used to like drinking out of the toilet - especially if it had one of those 'blue flush' things in the cistern!! We had to make sure the lid was down at all times as they contain chemicals. Never did him any harm mind as he was 17 when he died!

Lovely blooms pixi...my kitten Kooki would have been right in the pond! He loves water. I panic when he is away 2 long, I live 100 yards from the river. I may have to put in a pond to keep him amused :)
Just noticed Suki rhymes with Kooki :)

Thanks ST:)
Thanks Sheilar..yes I have 4 orfs, Suki doesnt even bother bout them lol..omg your collie..good that he had a long life tho :)

Thanks Scottish! I call Suki Kooki Pooki etc lol she answers to them all! Sometimes if i have a long soak in the bath she comes to see what I'm soing lol she peeks over te edge, and sometimes after I come out i let the water down a bit and she likes t stand in it and I gently pour the water over her, she loves it lol silly cats eh?

haha! lol!!... My old cat Teddy got into the bath with me on more than one occasion when he was little! Had to investigate why...found out that there's a breed of cat (ginger and white, like Ted) which lives beside and IN a lake in Turkey!!! Swimming cats!!!
...very, very envious of that gorgeous water lily! lol!! :)))

Hi Pixi, finally catching up....Thankyou for the lovely Fairy....x
The Astilbe puts mine to shame...in fact I binned it, fed up waiting for it do something...
The lovely Campanula...gives me hope for mine, it is growing now...but unless we get Summer at Christmas, it will be next year before it flowers...
Gorgeous roses...and I bet that Honeysuckle smells gorgeous too...As you know I hacked mine back when we cleared the fence from the old chooks yard, and it's bounced back, and smelling delicious...
Gorgeous Lilies...and even more gorgeous Suki...another one that drinks from the Pond...lol...tho there's always fresh water...Fish poo tastes better lol...

lol Karen! Yes I think I saw a programme about the swimming cats lol. I got that lily in B&Q for 1.99 4 yrs ago! lol It never flowered the first year..now i got lots! :)
Thanks Grannyb..but to tell the truth its actually my neighbours plant..lol We have things growing up the fence..some mine some theirs that intermingle through..so its nice. love the smell of it especially after the rain..oh its raining again here today surprise surprise! lol :)
Shame on you Sue for throwing the Astilbe out! It prolly would have come the next year..took a couple of years for both of mine to get like that. I like them but hate when they die away in the winter. And dont give up on the campanula either! I love that plant.
Lol@fish poo! Yes silly cats..oh well maybe something in the tap water they dont like! Why do we drink it! Hmmm..today she sleeps at the bottom of my bed after being up all ngiht racing up and down the stairs and God knows what else she was doing..made some racket! I kept wakening up thinking someone was in the house! lol :)
