Friday is Skyday

Balcony view.

 

Roof drama in Seanhenge.

 

After her tinopeners new roof  had been finished today,
Poesy obviously wanted to inspect
the whole thing from across the road
and suddenly found herself sitting on our roof.

Oh horror! And now how to get down again?

So daughter climbed into the attic, opened the hatch,
hung out a blanket ...

... and tongue snapping lured the cat to safety .
Phew! What excitement ;-)

Relats conjunts: Still life with onions and herring

«Natura morta amb cebes i arengada»
(Isidre Nonell – 1910)

Relats conjunts

Hm ... onions ... fish ... onion fish: In German a Zwiebelfisch is a character that by mistake is printed in a font different from the rest.
So what did Isidre wish to tell us with this very painting that is (very probably) nothing but a d'arengada vermella (red herring)?
It's obvious: But I won't tell you.
Surely you will find out for yourselves, won't you? ;-)
