Welcome to another selfie selection and today our theme is:
Parsley's Close Encounter Selfie
Parsley said he'd never been to Stonehenge, so he decided on the spur of the moment on Friday to take the Time Travelling Telephone Box and pop off for a quick trip, he'd just set up the tripod and camera. And then would mew fluffing believe it, just as the camera took the picture a fluffing Flying Saucer appeared!
He decided not to hang about, as he didn't feel like he needed to make any new acquaintances while unarmed and without the entire The B Team as back-up, or worse, end up as an alien abductee.
We'll keep mew posted if any more UFO sightings occur!
We're also joining in the lovelyAthena's Art Hopso do stop by and show off your pawesome arty-farty skills.
The effect was created with Befunky - Cartooniser DLX + colour changes to hue and saturation.
We also turned this fab arty-farty picture into a puzzle, so do stop by the puzzle page and take the Puzzle Challenge, see if mew can beat our time of 7 mins 29 secs.
Anyhoo it's time for us to go on kitty patrol around the garden and check that the P.A. has finished pruning the roses, and a few other trees and shrubs. Sadly the storms and bad weather have put this years pruning on a back burner, but hopefully we'll get caught up soon and then the big garden clean up can begin again.
So we do hope mew have a totally terrific day and look forward to your company in the morning when we're back with a BBHQ True Story, and mew won't want to miss that! Wishing mew lots of snoozy snuggles

How are mew all doing today? It's been freezing in Mewton-Clawson the last few days, and the coal heap is getting low, and Smooch keeps getting in said coal heap and returning with rather sooty paws, what a heathen! MOL
Anyhoo, let's dive right into our news, and first up this week is our epic cat tree glow up, if mew remember last weeks post and saw how sad, miserable and rather uninspiring it looked, well it doesn't look like that now.
We asked if mew could guess what colour we were going to cover it in and here are the guesses:
Great guesses guys, but sadly mew were all wrong, it's PINK! MOL MOL
Yes, pink trimmed with white fringe and the obligatory pink pom-poms, and we think it looks epic, not very man-catly but Pandora insisted it was pink and who are we to argue with that?
She loves it.
We haven't put the ramp back from under the box because; a, when the P.A. originally built the cat tree, there was a mistake in where the holes were to fix it and it never sat properly, and b, she ran out of fabric - oh dear and as the fabric came from Hong Kong, she needs to place a big order and that won't be happening for a while as we're all fabric'd out at the moment.
There are some scraps left, so maybe she might get really innovative and do something, we'll keep mew posted.
So is it a: YES or NO for the PINK?
Next up in the news this week, the P.A. found a Flying Saucer cardboard scratcher that she bought us before Catmas as a present and hid it, but she hid it a little too well!
Anyhoo, the Flying Saucer appeared in the sitting room on Monday and we've been loving it.
Fudge was first on the scene to check it out, Smooch has slept in it and Melvyn likes it when there's catnip involved.
And finally this week, here's what we did to our cat steps.
This was a project from last February and we were planning on sharing it ages ago, but mew know how things go, and then times flies and it's almost a year! MOL
The video is about five and a half minutes long and shows exactly what we did, well the P.A.!
We think they turned out pretty neat, what do mew think?
Haunted Happenings Update
The P.A. will be back with more Haunted Happenings at BBHQ starting 2nd February, she's just a little swamped with lots going on at the moment.
But has she got a story for mew, so here's a little teaser; it's not only BBHQ that is haunted in Mewton-Clawson with poltergeist activity!!! OH MY COD!!!
Bet mew can't wait to hear all about it.
That's us done for today, Amber will beback on Fridaywith another fab book just for mew, and if mew missed Monday's post, click hereto catch up on Part 5 of Fast, Furry & Dangerous.
Epic purrs
