Ragtag Daily Prompt: Architecture

They are watching me.
If you live with a cat you have to get used to being observed, very calmly.
Even when not wielding a can opener, Henry is there, watching me.
But other cats observe me, too.


Sometimes they do it openly.


Sometimes more clandestinely.


Watching is one thing. But most of the time I’m feeling judged as well.
I am not a big fan of traditional brass bands so I usually avoid the fest tents at the smaller festivals in the area. The bigger festivals have more tents and cater to different music tastes. But they were selling sausages at the local winegrowers’ festival and we were hungry, so we went in.
We were very surprised by the band on the stage. They looked spiffy but not completely different to the more traditional bands. Their music was wonderful, upbeat and boisterous. They were having a lot of fun.





So were we.
I thought of this photo first when I read the prompt. Liquid gold. Sunset over our small lake.
But then … I thought of the glass blowers at the National Glass Centre in Sunderland.




So what do I know? To me – that’s a cello. And if you had my fingers you’d pluck it, too, rather than using a bow.
