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

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

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

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!

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.

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!

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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.

Great film! Love Mr Ustinov.
Funny enough I literally passed Topkapi Palace the other day on the ferry.

Found this little fellow trying to stay cool in the heat of Istanbul today. Looks like they're hissing at me but just trying to ventilate the heat. #caturday #cats #catsofistanbul

This morning's breakfast in Istanbul was Menemen. I first had it over 20 years ago and still love it. It is a popular traditional Turkish dish that includes eggs, tomato, green peppers, and spices such as ground black and red pepper cooked in olive oil.
Food at Sütiş always good

This fellow, a hooded crow, was watching me all through breakfast this morning. Just waiting for me to disappear from the balcony for a moment so he could pinch something. He is here most mornings but today he was feeling very confident. #birds #photography #nature

Today's lunch was İskender kebab, a Turkish dish that consists of sliced meat topped with hot tomato sauce over pieces of pita bread, with melted special sheep's milk butter and yogurt. It can be prepared from thinly cut grilled lamb or chicken. It's one of my favourite dishes.

Saddened to hear the death of Cleo Laine.
My late Dad toured with her and John around the world quite alot. Along with John, She was a big part of my late Dad's music history. Even made a visit to see my Dad unannounced in hospital one time.
She was a Jazz Legend. Such a lovely lady. 🙏🏼🕯️❤️

Went for a walk last night in the heat of #istanbul around the gardens and bumped into this fellow. He then decided to stay with us until we finished our walk. #photography #cats

On my way to #Istanbul for our family holiday to meet up with friends and family. This time on an Airbus A330. Nice aircraft. #photography

I took this photo last year of some #artwork while in Turkey. I think it was a piece either in the style of, or is by Ashvin Harrison. #blueskyart #art

If ever you are in #Istanbul and in the Sultanahmet district, Blue Mosque area, then you must try the meatballs at this place. We always make a point of going. You won't be disappointed!
