Unsurprisingly, Cape Town is embracing the endless string of public holidays wholeheartedly. While I’ve worked on most of them, and torn my hair out at the half-days that seem to precede each holiday, I’m enjoying the infectiously easy-going mood around town. Even Monkey is feeling it (below).

Wait a minute, I think ‘public holiday’ might actually be the natural state of a Siamese cat.

Great photos. Love the embroidery. And the cat, of course. (Bless him.) Hope you get to take a day off too, soon!

I’m sitting outide working on my laptop, whilst my husband reads the newspaper across the table from me. Just to let you know (although you’ve probably already picked it up), Paul’s linocut on paper (“Solid”) is on the back page of the Cape Times with a review on what’s on at the Stevenson gallery. Congrats!
