Perhaps Aude and Sylvie should take their colour inspiration from Wilf as his fur contains a wonderful pallete of colours with hints of grey around some of the edges, lovely shades of creamish white and a comfy well lived friendly look. <br /><br />Woofs,<br />RileyThe Life of Rileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03042517508689233894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1554264610305778874.post-92059733421656807912011-02-09T19:07:04.406+01:002011-02-09T19:07:04.406+01:00Wilf

Well we too think the weathered gray is more appealing than the white top coat. <br /><br />On the other paw, if we're attributing a font to "the font," certainly not Times Roman. We're thinking she's more a sans serif kind of font --- like your blog. <br /><br />Wilf is always in our thoughts.

That's especially true if you have a woodstove, fireplace, or burn candles on a regular basis. Valentine's Day is coming so light up some romantic candles for the Font, but don't trim the wicks - let them "smoke" a wee bit. Voila! - grey ceilings in no time! Wait a minute...is the Font reading this?

And I have noticed that he his happiest of all when Aude the biscuit-bearing decatrice is around. Well I have an idea for prolonging her stay. I do believe that Wilf particularly enjoyed watching our hall ceiling being painted. Would it not be a good idea - for him, of course - to add another coat of paint? Perhaps a slightly darker shade of white would be the thing. Sort of grey, if you like, to remind dear Wilf of his youth in Scotland".<br /><br />On the other hand, perhaps not.<br />Cheers!
