I can't believe that one of our boxing legends has passed. So young as well. I loved watching him box. An unrelenting boxer who showed courage, explosive, gifted and heroic performances in the ring. A truly sad day for sport.
A true legend. RIP 🥊💔🕯️#rickyhatton

Last night we went to see #coldplay for the first time. It was my son's first ever concert. He was blown away by the show! Here's a taster from Wembley Stadium. #concert

Great photo!

Not often I get the chance to get a bus around the airport to the aircraft. But thanks to a 1 hour+ delay, change of gate and aircraft that's what we did.
I love the Boeing 777, and have flown on them countless times. Up close, they're pretty big! #aircraft #photography #boeing777 #Turkishairlines

A collage of cats that we met during our time in Istanbul, Turkey in summer.

Been back in the UK just over a week now and missing all the cats we know and met during our holiday. Here is a selection of some of them. Some of them are cats living around our complex and are very well looked after! #caturday #photography #catsofistanbul

Great shot!

Lovely!

Embassy should be changed to Embasspy. 😂

My son caught this the other night when a large storm passed us in Istanbul. I on the other hand, was the only one of my family to sleep through it all!

A cat we called Limpy is sitting on the bonnet of a parked blue Porsche 911 Carrera. Behind the car is some green foliage. The photo was taken from our balcony looking down towards the car, and the cat.

Some cats have expensive taste in cars! This cat is so talkative. You cannot get a word in. He lives in the complex where we live when in Istanbul. Always happy to see us each year. Nickname 'Limpy' by my kids, as when a kitten he had a limp. Not anymore happily.

A cat is asleep in a white pram from the 1960s. The pram is in the Koç Museum, Istanbul.

While at the Koç Museum today we found a cat asleep in one of the prams that formed part of a collection.
Happily sleeping away!

Looks good. Remember playing Pole Position back in the day.

The picture is of a short haired tabby cat sleeping on a pavement in Istanbul.

So I met this chap outside a shop. He is apparently well known there as everyone in the area looks after him. The shop keeper was laughing when I asked about him! He was in such good condition. The cat, not the shopkeeper. #caturday #photography

A display of Cat themed trays. They are metal and have a different take on some famous art styles but with cats.

Outside the old Besitas Ferry Pier in Istanbul there is a bookshop that sells these wonderful cat themed trays. I haven't decided which one yet but will definitely be going back to get one or more! #cats #caturday #photography #art

The lizard in the image appears to be a common house gecko (Hemidactylus frenatus), or a closely related species from the Hemidactylus genus. These geckos are small, nocturnal lizards

Found this little gecko on the wall this morning. He hardly moved all day and appeared to be shedding parts of skin.

Chicken Shish served on a white round plate. The chicken is served on a thin layer of bread. To the side is a portion of pilau rice, and a salad made from onions and tomatoes finely chopped one the other. There is also a grilled red chilli that was tasty but extremely hot!

Had a fantastic dinner last night at Alioğlu Restaurant.
I thought I would try Chicken Shish as I haven't had it for a long time. It was fantastic. Chicken cooked to perfection.
Service excellent. If in town go there. #photography #food #aliogluiskendar #turkishfood

A palm tree with its green foliage stands tall against the backdrop of a darkening blue sky.

Took this picture of a palm on a nice evening walk in the relatively cool breeze near the Sea Of Marmara. It looked nice against the darkening night sky.

Brings back fond memories of my high school days! Leaking on one's shirt, pencil case, trousers, bag. 😭

💯! 🐱

I am not really a rat person but they do look cute!

My Turkish Black Cat friend greets me before I leave. The cat is on a stone wall with shrubs and foliage to the side.

Yesterday when I left our apartment my little 'cat-selfie' friend was waiting to greet me again! A very friendly cat.
The cats here are very lucky as everyone in the area looks out for them, food, water etc.
They have so much space and lovely shaded areas.

A black stray cat in Istanbul trying to take its own photo on my mobile phone.

This little cat of Istanbul was so friendly it wanted to take its own selfie yesterday!
It was also very chatty and would not let me leave.

Blissful!

Fantastic shots!

Ironically Betamax was actually better quality than VHS.
Basically VHS was JVC who gave out Licences, Sony was Betamax who kept tighter control.
