Now that is what I call a T shirt

Blip is so proud

PS I did spot her appearance in the queue,

Leigh.

Christine - I thought you was going to say Blip walking around IN a t shirt - now there's an idea for you Leigh - market stall selling t shirts FOR cats!!

You're nearly looking as COOL as The Fonz now Leigh - very nice.

Mary

Hiya Chris,

Don't show her this posting then

i'm glad that you are enjoying the video, it's been a lot of fun putting it together, actually Blip is in twice as you probably saw, once in the crowd scenes and in the queue at the box office

cheers

Leigh

Christine (Blip) · « **Reply #89 on:** June 28, 2008, 13:17:07 PM »

I am not sure whether to tell Blip that she is going to be walking round on a T shirt

I just love the video: it is the little touches I like the best, like the cats queuing at the venue and the lighters in the audience

I might indulge in the wallpaper

maryas · « **Reply #88 on:** June 28, 2008, 08:59:45 AM »

There is one more thing that is certain - Cat's rule our lives!!!!!!!!!

LeighK · « **Reply #87 on:** June 28, 2008, 08:54:53 AM »

Well there might well be changes and additions I don't know what I do know, as the saying goes, is that there are only two things certain in life: death and taxes.

Leigh

maryas · « **Reply #86 on:** June 28, 2008, 08:40:57 AM »

Purrs cats and Alfie's website can be more famous now.

But is that the FINAL wallpaper or will there be changes!!

Hi folks,

I did a 1024x768 Letterbox wallpaper which you can get here if you'd like it :

Well I could BUT I don't know how long a piece of string is, thanks so much for the lovely e-mails and the great card from my pudds.

Leigh

Oh and I dropped by a shop and they're printing me a black T.Shirt with the picture below, thought it'd be fun.

The more hi-res artwork looks like this :

Leigh, could you not just say how long is a piece of string?

LeighK · « **Reply #82 on:** June 27, 2008, 11:59:00 AM »

Hi Stu,

Glad it raised a laugh, I made a slight change, you might recognise the cat at the end of the queue in the Box Office scene mate

I also did a "making of" graphic for those interested in the stages involved.

Cheers

Leigh

PS. As "Slow-hand" Alfie would say "Well, I don't really think that the end can be assessed as of itself as being the end because what does the end feel like? It's like saying when you try to extrapolate the end of the universe, you say, if the universe is indeed infinite, then how - what does that mean? How far is all the way, and then if it stops, what's stopping it, and what's behind what's stopping it? So, what's the end, you know, is my question to you."

LeighK · « **Reply #80 on:** June 27, 2008, 09:58:24 AM »

Yes, bless her she allowed me a lay in, how sweet of her

I don't think Frankie's very health and safety minded he's just fat and lazy

I played with Alfie last night with the laser toy, as you know I'm a bit concerned about eyes so I was very very careful but he went "potty" for it, it has four different shapes, a mouse, a butterfly, a smiley face and a dot and he was chasing them up and down the stairs and across the walls miaowing VERY loudly, he just loved it but, as I said, I'm worried about the eyes so I'll be very very careful. I just knew that he'd love it, kept coming back for more and more.

Cheers

Oh BTW, you win the "Letterbox" autographs as the lucky 500th viewer of this posting, it will be winging its way to you ASAP.

Took me a while to get the Steve Magaret pic - but then it came to me - Hawaii 5 0 !!!

At least Suzie waited until 6 instead of her usual 3.00 a.m. she let you have a lay in on your birthday!!

We can't have Frankie playing with electric at his age!!

LeighK · « **Reply #78 on:** June 27, 2008, 08:51:28 AM »

Thanks,

No I've slowed down a lot since this morning

, of course next year will be the BIG one....

and I'd have ground to a halt by then. Suzie, bless her, gave me the most original and personal of presents by being sick all over me and the bed at 6 this morning, what a very personal pressie. I asked Frankie to put the kettle on make me a Birthday cuppa...................................did he hell!!!

Cheers chuck

and who'se going to be the lucky 500th viewer of this posting?, a free "Letterbox" signed autograph to the lucky person

Can you still keep up with the pace now you are a bit older Leigh??? Happy birthday chuck. xxx

Love Mary xx

And Bonnie of course xx

maryas · « **Reply #76 on:** June 26, 2008, 20:45:00 PM »

ok at the moment ta. You need to go back if yours isn't right. Hope it's ok for tomorrow and your Chinese.

Cheeky little Bonnie - not happy with just an autograph, she has to get pics too - think she has a crush on Alfie. I'm sure it's my camera she's borrowed too! Cheeky little monkey. Glad they are all enjoying themselves though.

LeighK · « **Reply #75 on:** June 26, 2008, 20:03:33 PM »

Hiya,

Hope your tooth is feeling better mine's started "twinging" which is never a good sign

hope it holds out for tomorrow at least.

Yes, getting a bit lazy BUT I made up for it by putting Ellie's "Muppet" in as a "official" photographer in one of the stage scenes and your Bonnie now takes a picture from the audience in one of the crowd scenes, how she smuggled that camera in I'll never know, naughty Bonnie taking un-official photos

.

Luv xx

Leigh

maryas · « **Reply #74 on:** June 26, 2008, 15:26:55 PM »

Not done much more then Leigh??!! Getting a bit lazy now

It's very good chuck.

Mary

LeighK · « **Reply #73 on:** June 26, 2008, 10:05:52 AM »

Good morning,

There's even more new stuff this morning in the new scene, there's now a cat flap/cat in the Staff Toilet door, a working cat drinking fountain, I added my friend's lovely little Torty cat "Tilly" to the cat queue, a new cat's head screensaver to the second VDU, a Letterbox Tour T.Shirt poster and wording to the "No Hissing" sign.

Oh and I added Suzie's rain hat and a catnip stash to the inside the limo scene

Cheers

Leigh

maryas · « **Reply #72 on:** June 25, 2008, 20:33:41 PM »

Didn't have chance to look at it properly at work - I now see the staff toilet - nice one - only just noticed Alfie in the limo wagging his tail to the music too. I think someone said it earlier about seeing something new every time they look at it - so much to take in and then you add even more to confuse us/keep us on our toes/paws

Mary x

LeighK · « **Reply #71 on:** June 25, 2008, 16:57:38 PM »

It's not Bonnie but it's very like Bonnie isn't it

, the two cats at the desk are Ellie's "Rascal" and Pinkbear's "Jumpy". My favourite joke in the new scene is the Staff Toilet symbol

The flight atendant is actually Beanie's "Mr Barney"

Cheers

Who's the air hostess?
Are my eyes deceiving me or is that Bonnie behind the desk next to the pc with the mouse on the vdu?

It's brill.

Mary

LeighK · « **Reply #69 on:** June 25, 2008, 15:34:07 PM »

Hiya Chris,

Yes the rain and the rain hat at the airport are new as are the moving windscreen wipers on the limo. If you look very quickly, the beginning of the limo pulling up there are cats queuing outside the venue. I'm also uploading a new version in a few minutes with a completely new scene, oh and it's got Blip in it

.

Additional .... I just uploaded the new movie version containing the new scene.

Cheers

Morning folks,

I made a few changes and additions this morning to the arriving at the airport and arriving at the concert venue scenes, the last of which you have to be very quick to spot.

I'm foxed (as in beaten, not as in curling up at the edges

). Is Suzie's rainhat new at the airport? Was the flag waving on top of the venue before?

Hiya chuck,

Thanks, I really wanted to put Oli in, as you know, it's hard for me to look at pictures of him without feelinh sad and I had archived all his pictures onto another hard disk drive and had to search for them but, as I mentioned, I think he would have loved to be included and "imortalised" in video. Your Bonnie looks like she's having a good time at the gig.

Cheers

Hi folks,

I'm pleased you liked it, I did one more new scene with the Purrs' cats and Alfie on the mic.

I was thinking about the things that get thrown onto stage by adoring female fans and thought "what would cats throw?" answer their collars with their address and telephone numbers on of course

Cheers

Good morning folks,

First off, thanks for all the great pics, I have incorporated them all in the audience as well as Clare's Maxy Boy and my bridge babe "Oliver", I think he'd have liked that.

Below is a still from the crowd scene and I have incorporated the animated scene into the movie.

If you missed the boat this time around and I get enough pics I will do another scene.

Hope you enjoy it and thanks again for such lovely pics of your babes.
