Animal Lover, Preacherman, Metrosexual

[poliphilo]

This was Churchill- an elderly cat we got from a rescue home. We called him that because his bow-legged stance made him look like a bulldog. He'd wander off - and neighbours would bring him back to us wrapped in a blanket, saying "I'm afraid your cat's been in an accident"-  and we'd say, "No, he always walks like that."



This was snapped at a Wiccan handfasting- one of our notable screw-ups. I believe the bride fell out of love with the groom during the actual course of the ceremony.



Taken in my mother's back garden. And, no, I'm not camping it up. That's an entirely typical pose.

Thank you.

You have a character actor's face! Not enough of your photographs had been of yourself for me to notice.

I'd have loved to have been an actor- I was an enthusiastic amateur- but, sadly, I wasn't any good.

My speciality was quavery old men.

It's still a good face.

The "metrosexual" pose has an almost David Tennant look about it, helped along by the spectacles. :-D

I see what you mean. We both have boyish faces.

I was thinking more 'Jarvis Cocker'.

Flatterer! :)

A long time ago, alas....:)

I have been thoroughly enjoying your vintage photo-fest. I had to laugh at the metrosexual label, and (most especially at) the caption.

I seem to have fallen unconsiously into the stance of Michelangelo's David.

Cock up extraordinaire!

I'm loving these snaps you've been posting. :)

Dad once took a wedding where the bride, when asked 'will you take this man...' yelled 'no!'

I've been enjoying the snaps too

There's nothing like a wedding to sharpen up one's perceptions.

Thanks.

Churchill was quite a hefty cat.
You look like you're in a trance and speaking tongues in the second photo.
The third just makes me smile.
:)
I'm enjoying your photofest very much!

I was probably giving the "charge" in the character of the presiding God. So, yes, I would have been in a light trance.

I used to be thin, too. It's hard to believe we were ever so lean, isn't it. And didn't we look so young, too?

[poliphilo.livejournal.com]

I was always sort of proud of being in such good shape- and not having to work at it. I haven't put on weight- or not much- but my bulk has sort of redistributed itself.

I'm still not doing too badly in that area, but my old clothes dont fit and with a limited budget I cannot be always buying new ones. So, I am losing some extra pounds.
