The mail lady came today with a happy surprise for all of us. This lady snuck up onto our porch and rang the doorbell. I screamed. “introoder alert,” Then I hot pawed it under the bed. Tyebe looked at me as if I was nuts. She’ll learn one day.
Father’s Day Selfie
Where’s dad…it’s his day. What did you get him Shoko? Were we suppose to get him something? He doesn’t like chewing on your mouse or a straw. He just drinks through the straw…he looks like a dork when he does that. I guess his mom never showed him how to play with it.
This mouse moves when I hit his bum. MOL
SHOKO…..BLACK
KALI…..ORANGE
Does it look like you should sip at a drink with this…I don’t think so.
Mom says she will make dad a special supper so we don’t have to share our toys. Woo hoo, we’re off the hook.
This is also Selfie day at The Cat On My Head blog.
Click on the blog host name and visit your lovely friends acting their best for the selfie.
I had to set the timer on the selfie for this one. I did fall sound asleep.
Hope everyone has a special Father’s Day. If you have no father…..celebrate anyway. Thank your friends for being there for you and have a special time playing. 
Hippity Hoppity Onwards To Harrods
It’s time for the Hop On /Off bus. Off they go to hop off at Chinatown and walk up to Covent Garden.
Dad jumped on the bus and went upstairs to the deck on top. Mom looked at the stairs and figured she’d keep the bus driver company.
They got off at Chinatown and saw a pub that called to them.
They had to go inside and see all the slugs. Rip off! There were no slugs but a delicious bottle of Light Pepsi waited for them.
Off they went to Covent Garden. They had to see where James Bowen and Streetcat Bob had been busking the Big Issue magazine. Since those times James and Streetcat Bob have accomplished a lot. These two former street guys are financially secure and can buy stuff they never ever thought they could at one time.
The next stop for mom and dad was Harrods. The first stop was the food halls and specifically the different fancy teas.
Mom was in her glory and bought Harrods Tea….Afternoon Blend
Then it was over to the food halls for a peek at the fancy foods.
Mom saw a sandwich she just had to have. It was two pieces of rye bread with butter, a cooked thinly sliced beet, smoked salmon, cut thinly and a few bean sprouts on top. The sandwich was cut in fours…just the way mom likes. Mom offered half to dad, who wrinkled up his nose but mom insisted as they should always be open to new ideas. Dad took a quarter and loved it so much he ate the other quarter.
Mom wanted to buy something from Harrods other than just the tea, so decided to buy some perfume. It cost more than the ready cash they had. So dad would have to pull out more loot. Dad disappeared to stand alone by a wall so he could get at his money belt. A store security man went over and told him there was none of that in this store. The security man thought dad was playing with himself….what a hoot! Dad had to explain what he was trying to do without turning red with embarrassment. MOL After purchasing the perfume our travellers went back to the hotel with their treasures.
Mom explained to dad that she needed her furs washed but the sink was as big as her face. Dad said never fear, he will help. So dad shampooed and used conditioner on mom’s fur. Trouble is he didn’t get all the soap and conditioner out…a very difficult task. So mom happily was walking around with a half pound of shampoo in her fur. I sound like Shoko don’t I? Let’s get the drama queen in here to explain the next chore of moms. Thanks Kali. Mom told dad she needed a bath also but the bathtub was too deep, she couldn’t step into it. The bathtub was an old-fashioned tub but with handrails on each side of the tub. The back didn’t go straight but was more like a slide. A funny looking tub to mom. Dad helped mom and she slid down the back of the tub and landed with a plop….kinda hard on the butt she said. Yet here she was with water and soap. The inside of the tub was indented the shape of her legs and butt. There was a problem because of these indentations she couldn’t lift her swollen legs but the water felt so good. A helping paw from dad and she was out and never wanted back in ever again. MOL
So sorry about the quality of the photo…think mom had too much tea before shooting the picture. Do you see the grooves? Well shampoo head and her mate, Helpful Harry, drifted off to sleep very quickly.
Next installment involves a train ride up country.
