Took a walk through Parkville at lunchtime. Fallen leaves everywhere. Blue cold sky. And just the most amazing old houses.

Particularly impressive was the old Italinate-style victorian mansion. Ten rooms on a corner block, including servant quarters and a lookout tower. I desperately want a lookout tower.

And walking back I passed a ginger tomcat perched on a high brick wall. It looked old and mean and scowling. But as I walked past, it gave a pleading mewl and trotted up to be patted. So I spent a happy five minues petting the creature, and it still wanted more when I headed off.

I'm getting a Mac soon. With GarageBand. Then my unused band name will be... less unused.

Was your walk along any part of Park Street at all? I encountered a ginger cat on one of my walks along that street about a month ago and it followed me for blocks, even crossing the train lines just before a train came hurtling past.

I miss having a kitty :(

It was around there. I'm terrible with street names, so I couldn't tell exactly where I met the cat.

His name was Toby, by the way. Which suited him perfectly.
