Life is Grand Award
We have been awarded the Life Is Grand Award by Camie's Kitties.
Thank you very much. The rules are that we now need to tell you 5 reasons why we think life is grand and then pass it on to 5 more blogs.
1. We get to go out in the fields and hunt mousies.
2. We can sit in the window when it rains and watch all the fev-vers eating the bird seed.
3. Our Beans Zoom Groom us about 100 times a day if we get up on our cat tree. (Mum sez it seems like 100 times)
4. We are allowed out in the garden for as long as we like. Mum calls us in at 1 am when she goes to bed.
5. Flynn: Mum lets me sleep under the quilt with her.
Eric: Dad lets me sleep on his head. Well he doesn't complain too much.
We would like to tag:
Scooby, Shaggy and Scout,

Fifth Photo and an Award
We were tagged by C from Millie's Place to do the 5th photo meme. This is what you do:
Open your file folders (pictures),
click on the fifth folder,
and then the fifth photo,
Post the photo to your blog and describe it.
Then tag 5 other bloggers.
This photo is of our Beans in front of The Vatican. They went there on a Mediterranean cruise in 2006. It was not long after mum had broken her leg and she was on crutches. She didn't want them in the photo, so she was leaning against dad and he was trying to hide them behind his back. You can see part of one behind his leg.
We tag : Sunny, Derby, Mickey, Princess and Pierro, and Jeter Harris.
Also thanks to Patches and Nemo for giving us the Proximidade award.
"This blog invests and believes in PROXIMITY - nearness in space, time and relationships! These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers! Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award."
We have had this award before and passed it on to others. If you don't already have this award and you visit us regularly, please take it for yourself.
Several of you asked about the flowers yesterday. Yes they are crocuses. Even though we have had the coldest winter for twenty years, (we think that is right, we can't remember for sure) the Spring bulbs have been coming up early. The crocuses have been up for over a week and the snowdrops came up in the middle of January. Dad even saw primroses before Christmas.

Award and meme.
We got this great award furrom Pearl, Bert and Jake for our hunting skills.We would like to pass it on to Jeter Harris' brother, Matsui and to HRH Yao-lin for his skill in hunting down his neighbour's food.
We have been tagged by T'Abby Normal for the six unspectacular quirks meme.The rules:
Link to the one who tagged you. List the rules on your blog. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours. Tag some blogger friends with links. Leave a comment on their blog to let them know that they've been tagged.
We are going to do it between us.
1. Flynn:When I am being scritched above the base of my tail. I get a snake's tongue. It flicks in and out really fast.
2. Eric:When I get back scritches I bite my feet and legs cuz I get so excited.
3. Both of us will only drink from the bath tap or rain puddles. The only bowl we drink from is our outdoor bowl cuz it has rainwater in it.
4. Neither of us will drink milk. We came from a farm where there were lots of cows, but milk is yuk. We won't drink cat milk either or eat cream.
5. We don't like human food much. We may eat a tiny bit of steak or shrimp, but we prefer Stinky Goodness or crunchies. We will not eat raw meat at all unless it is mousie.
6. We both love water. We paddle in it, sit in it, play in it. I (Eric) like to get in the bath with the Beans too. I lie on their tummies making biscuits, and let my paws and tail float.
We tag Sunny and China Cat.
