We have had a few freezing cold days in London. There was even a brief flurry of snow on Thursday but this didn’t settle, due to the ground being too wet, much to my students’ disappointment.
Just as the sun is retreating, the cold weather has drawn the mighty Sun King inwards, and the little sod has been spending most of his time on our laps. Yes, this includes the second favourite lap in the household (mine). And I will gladly accept whatever meagre crumbs of affection that he casts my way, even if he is only doing it to stay warm.
Here he is, on my lap, looking uncharacteristically elegant – well, apart from the old man white hairs and the specks of dust:

Perhaps there is hope, after all, that he could produce a halfway-decent Official Winter Solstice Portrait (Cat Daddy: “It could be the last one he ever does”) in the next few weeks?
