LOL Ren. She/he "looks" that way for sure. In our Zoe's case, if she thinks she's half-hidden, she also thinks it's a great opportunity to go into attack mode : ) We tend to ignore her when she's in situations like that and eventually she comes out and seeks company instead. Yes I realise it's sad that we have "mental battles" with an animal who has a brain the size of a walnut, but I prefer to be laughed at rather than acquire more scars lol.
Auntie: It's a lovely pic. Your cat is adorable. I really like the way the light comes into play in that picture.

Thanks.  I spotted this old telephone box near Madison Avenue, NY. Now being used for a different purpose than intended. (Brits of a certain age will remember that they were often dual-purpose structures in the UK too. I won't go into detail. Suffice to say that there was no provision to wash your hands after you'd finished, let alone a working flush!)

Being down on the High Street on Sunday when things were quiet I could stand in the road to take a picture without being knocked down,or try from the opposite pavement and get pictures of passing traffic  I have never seen anyone actually enter here

I'd suspect most enter round the back, and not on their feet either... Roses on the edge of Hampstead Heath

I don't know about using it as a convenience but they used to be handy places for young couple to snuggle up out of the rain and cold!

^^^^^^^^ "don't know about using it as a convenience but they used to be handy places for young couple to snuggle up out of the rain and cold!" errr, yes. To get out of the rain and cold. Can't use my good camera but took this one early this morning with my ipod so quality is low but it was just a lovely view.

Great sunset Copago, the Chrysler building is a favourite of mine but I doubt I will ever get to visit it. I was not sure whether to put this picture in the Weather section calling it Rain On The Way. The building is a wine bar and unlike a lot of premises around it has retained the outside even on the groundfloor,  There seems to me to be an atmosphere of the Adams Family about the picture

Auntie: Nobody grows camellias where I live, so thanks for the picture..I can smell them from here : )
Gees: Spectacular picture. Also, I'd have never imagined that a wine bar would occupy that much floor space lol.
