Rocking horse

I really hope you can make out this picture, the glare of the window was doing me no favours in this shot. I've walked past this house pretty much everyday since I've lived here, on my way to and from town. Yesterday was the first time I actually looked up and noticed that propped by the window was a beautiful old rocking horse. I always wanted a rocking horse as a child. My mum actually had a real horse at the time but you know how irrational children are! I wonder if this particular one belongs to a child or just a wistful grown up.

P.S, said I'd find a horse high up next ;) 

Charlie cat on a flat roof...

This cat is called Charlie, and belongs to a friend. Although we have not yet been formally introduced I can imagine that we'll get on pretty well. I met her yesterday whilst she was peering at me over the lip of her (or should I her owners') flat kitchen roof. She looks super cute and although the picture is yet another scruffy phone snap I quite like the silhouette of her tiny cat face against the grey sky. This is the second animal I have seen in the last few months perched on a roof. I shall keep a beady eye out for more. A horse preferably next time.

Property is Theft

Another find on the way to work. This piece of graffiti is high up above a really run down looking old hotel- which I'm assuming is now a block of flats. Next door a massive development is taking place where lots of new houses are  being built. If property is theft: there's a hell of a lot of thieving going on around here.
