Jumpin' juniper berries, what a week it's been... the weather has been horrid, apart from a couple of brief spells of sunshine - Smooch and Parsley will share these rare moments further in the post - and things have just gone WRONG!
Firstly, let us apologise for not hopping in all the blog hops last week, as we usually link up on a Friday; our interwebs service decided to go on the fritz, and the router failed in the most dismal way. Then the power kept tripping out at the most inopportune moments, the boiler decided to take a vacation, and all in all, it's been a really fluffing fluffed-up week.
The P.A. hasn't made the new bandanas for October - it's Monday afternoon - she's going to try and magic those out of the ether later today, but we'll see. However, if she doesn't get a chance, we'll share the fabric samples temporarily so mew can choose like normal, which one Melvyn will model, and worst-case scenario, she can make them this weekend.
Anyhoo, let's look at the lovely Harvest Moon, which was shining brightly last week! MOL
And now, let's look at this week's top headlines before there are any more fluff-ups! MOL
First up in the news this week
Smooch and Sauce In A Brief Sun Spell
Next up in the news
Pandora's Really Miffed
Pandora was really miffed, as the P.A. promised that she'd get the fence painted, and it hasn't happened, so the poor P.A. had to suffer Pandora's wrath, as the chances of it getting painted now are slim to none.
And apparently, there's a weather event of unprecedented magnitude (supposedly, but hopefully not) headed over Britain between now and the 6th of October. We looked at the radar maps, and if it's correct, most of Britain will be flooded.
But we'll keep mew posted on that... we're purraying to Cod and any other deity who may be listening that it misses us at BBHQ and at the P.A.'s work.
Finally this week
Melvyn's Modelling The Top Bandana Pick
He was on top form this week; his modelling took less than 2 minutes. Seriously, he was pawesome! Though he did stop and smell the runner in the kitchen twice, we did wonder what had tickled his nostrils, but we remembered that earlier, there had been some catnip action with Fudge and Smooch, and maybe there were a few traces of the green stuff left! MOL
Oh, and he took a diversion around the bar stools to mix things up a bit this week! MOL
You all are so good looking, but you knew that. Hey, the Harvest Moon is beautiful! I hope your internet sticks around LOL! Thanks for joining Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
ReplyDeleteWe hope you go steampunk next week, Melvyn!
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your bad weather, and those internet and power issues. Such a mess! We hope this coming week goes much better for mew.
I vote for the steampunk too! I hope the terrible weather that has been forecast avoids you. We have been lucky and only had "normal" rain this week or mostly showers. Good modelling as always from Melvyn.
ReplyDeleteMelvyn, how about Halloween Cats? Pandora has a right to be miffed ifn yer gonna git flooded out. Tell that storm to head back to Ohio, USA. Our drought since August 1, is still goin' on. Got a bit of drizzle yesterday and today, but it only makes Lynn's hair turn into cotton candy. Precious

ReplyDeleteI pick the spiders bandana for the first one next month.
ReplyDeleteI linked this post to Wordless Wednesday.
Have a fabulous day and rest of the week. Scritches to all the kitties and a hug to mom. ♥
Looking good Melvyn! I like all October's picks, but those spiders are my favorite. Hope you don't get a lot of rain. XO
ReplyDeleteThe sun puddles are the best.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you caught at least a little sunshine and the flowers were put in. As for the fence, there's always next year, weather permitting.
ReplyDeleteThe spiders tickle my fancy and I am praying for protection for you and your whole country from whatever this crazy weather is.
As for the being unable to get internet, it happens, I'm just glad you got back. A friend of ours had a line cut and it's been 6 weeks, the workers who repair things are on strike and they don't know when they'll get service back.
