    He's lovely, and such a great, characterful face. On a different note I had the 2M set up professionally as I just couldn't get it right, it is singing very sweetly now, I've changed the tonearm cable as well and that made a huge improvement.

    Hi Ian,

    Yeah he's a character all right, he's not particularly friendly with other dogs (which isn't surprising given where he came from) but hes great with the cat and just a big old softy with people.

    The image ls a little 'opaque' because it was taken through our kitchen window.

    Lovely, I am reminded of the saying:

    "Dogs have owners, cats have servants"

    I have to take pictures of my new little visitor to the garden through the kitchen window too, she's so scared, runs away if I get anywhere near her.

    Nice one, Alex. Look forward to seeing that when you manage to 'capture' her

    Visitors by A60man, on Flickr

    I have put food out this morning, but no visitor as yet.

    Update, just had another look, no cat but birds are eating the dried cat food and milk.

    Not seen visitor till just now, been raining most of the day, so I suppose she's been hiding. Fine now, so come for some food and drink:

    This is still though the kitchen window. She's not as close as it looks. I don't use the zoom, take ordinary view and crop it. Seems to work better like this.

    Looks big to be a female. Could be a neutered tom?

    In good condition, must have a home somewhere you'd think.

    Not sure, but no collar.

    My late Tiddles had a big head, big body too, she was a girl http://theartofsound.net/forum/showt...915#post771915

    Think I should re-phrase that, massive head!
