Garden pictures, also One Man and his Cat!

[curiouswombat]

The next chapter of Return of the Key is with my beta-reader, but he is tired, having just finished his spell of nights at work, and won't be finished with it until tomorrow - so that will be then.

In the meantime, we have had lovely weather this weekend, and I have had the camera out in the yard. My fuchsias are all doing really well still -











For some reason one of those pics comes up on the preview as bigger than the rest - which is weird, because they are all the same size in my photobucket account - such are the mysteries of the internet!

The sweet peas are also still looking colourful -



And this is the only one of the patio roses that is currently in bloom -





And under this other cut is a very cute picture of





Well, OK - not terribly cute of S2C - but too cute of the cat not to share!

Flowers, cat and hubby are all blooming! Great!

Our weather, even this summer, seems to suit fuchsias - my mother has a glorious one with flowers about 3" wide which simply self-seeded itself into a pot with a geranium!

Love the cat ... who obviousy loves S2C!!

Yes, fuscias are stunning aren't they - and you are right the weather has been nice over the last few days.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

The cat is almost as big a softy as the husband.

It's getting windy now.

One of my fuchsias is actually only coming into bloom - a sort of Halloween Fuchsia or something!

[winsomeone.livejournal.com]

The flowers are lovely.

Cat and husband both appear very comfortable.

The husband is lying on the chaise end of our living room corner unit - and as soon as he does so Shaka appears, as if by magic, and curls up on top of him.

Beautiful flowers! I am amazed by fuchsias every time I see them -- such intricate structure!

And awwww...*melts*

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Fuchsias grow well here - we have wild ones that are used to hedge fields! I have five or six, maybe more, dotted around the yard and they always do well. I too love the delicacy and intricacy of them.

Lovely flower pictures, and the cat is too cute. (Not so sure about the man semi-glaring at the camera...) :)

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

He isn't really glaring at the camera - he's smirking at the cat!

[slaymesoftly.livejournal.com]

Ah, okay. :)

[gillo]

I think they're both adorable. And the flowers - lovely.

It looks like we've had the last of the decent weather. And I've caught the first cold of the season. *grump*

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

It is getting a bit blustery out there now - we don't head off until Tuesday next wee, so hopefully it will have blown over, but the next one won't have blown in by then!

As for the cold - sends Beechams and Echinacea...

[ningloreth.livejournal.com]

Oooo! Lovely fuchsias! And a very good picture of your husband :-)

I'm way behind with Return of the Key -- hope to catch up later in the week...

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

I've been being cruel to everyone in RotK(!!), I'm afraid! But I am posting the chapter tomorrow that finally has the glimmer of hope in the last line!

I love fuchsias - I find them remarkably tough and difficult to kill...

The husband and the cat make a lovely couple, don't they?

[petzipellepingo.livejournal.com]

Petzi Sis had a fuschia plant in the backyard this Summer, she just got rid of it lately. And hubby and kitty look most comfy together.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Our weather suits fuchsias - they will over winter outdoors and carry on growing next year. The top three are all three or more years old.

[zanthinegirl.livejournal.com]

those are some gorgeous fuchsias!

And very cute kitty pic. Your cat has a lot of personality!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Your cat has a lot of personality!

That sums him up really well.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Husband and cat are equally soft!

[sammywol.livejournal.com]

Was going to gush about the lovely fuchsias but then AWWWWW! KITTY!!! They make a very cute couple.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Don't they? It's true love - Shaka loves to lie on anyone who lies on the settee... but S2C is his favourite.

[bojojoti.livejournal.com]

Aww! Contented kitties are hard to resist!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

And ours does do 'cute' remarkably well.

[spikereader.livejournal.com]

Lovely pictures all - hubby, kitty and flowers.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thanks - the cat is, as usual, the star!

[jerusha]

Aw...Shaka reminds me of Q in that picture. She tends to flop on someone just like that.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

He just waits for someone to lie down there and then appears on top of them; often without seeming to have crossed the intervening space!

[beanbeans.livejournal.com]

Oh, I just love that first picture of the fuschias, and that rose looks creamy and soft. Aww, that is one contented kitty. :) Lovely photos- thanks for sharing.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

I really should get the fuchsias in better focus - but my current camera just doesn't work quite a sclose-up as the old one did, and I keep getting just a cm too close!
