Volcanoes, a cat, and cricket

[vilakins]

I didn't do much that was exciting today, but Greg did. I bought him a three weeks early birthday present: an hour's flight over the three volcanoes (Ruapehu, Ngauruhoe, and Tongariro) at the other end of the lake. He took lots of crater and lahar pictures, plus a good one of The Village as he came back in to land

I don't know if he belongs here or is a neighbour's cat looking for daytime company.

Judging from the Burmans I knew donkeys years ago it was probably looking for daytime company. They are very people orientated beauties and the ones I knew would climb you if you ignored them, luckily it was the time of the maxi so only my clothes suffered

Our cats cry and paw our legs if we ignore them. This little guy meowed every time I stopped touching him, then settled down at my feet till he suddenly decided to leave.

We're upstairs though, and unless we leave a door open or see him on the stairs again (outside ones good for sunning on) I doubt I'll see him again. He was adorable though, and posed beautifully for the camera. :-)

Stunning icon.

Looks as if India are out of the Super 8's.

You mean the tabby? :-) He looks just like Sam, our old family cat.

We heard Sri Lanka beat them. We don't get to see matches we're not in, but we'll get all the Super 8 ones.

I think it's the green eyes staring up at you that attracts.

We don't get to see matches

I don't get to see any of them, we don't have satellite. I depend on the radio, which does mean I can do something else at the same time. I made a batch of half a dozen curried prawn flans this afternoon.
