July 21 is the 202nd day of the year in the Gregorian calendar. There are 163 days remaining until the end of the year. I was born on July 21, some say it was on July 22, though. July 21 is also Mr. Bowie’s Gotcha Day.
Fact #6: It was a hot day. But it was fun to be outside on this hot, sunny day.
Fact #7: Prepare your weapons to hold a water fight. Keep in mind: kids will form a coalition and kick your ass.
Fact #8: White wine from Molina – Chile. This intense Chardonnay is clean and light yellow in colour, with aromas of peaches, tropical fruit such as pineapple, and a hint of banana that blend beautifully with a rich note of vanilla. Bright acidity enhances the fresh fruit flavours and lends perfect balance to the sweet sensation that lingers on the deliciously long and pleasing finish.
Fact #9: The future’s so bright. Girls gotta wear shades and drink a Linizio Lungo.
Fact #10: It was a private party. No doggies allowed. It was forbidden to feed Mr. Bowie. Some of the guests asked me not to put their photos on HoB. I respect that. It’s not easy being a celebrity, you can ask Mr. Bowie.
Hail to the King! Hail to Mr. Bowie! Hail to myself!

Hands on Bowie & Jimi 
No Party food for Mr Bowie! No dogs to chase! What did he do at the party? Sleep!
Ha ha ha… It was too hot, too crowded and too noisy (during the water fight) for Mr. Bowie.
I hope he got a special treat the day after the party.
Oh yes, but we had to get to the vet, unfortunately. The inflammation of his left ear came back. He’s on medication for the next 14 days.
Poor Mr Bowie. Sore ears are very painful. Hope the medication starts to work quickly.
What a lovely celebration including a water fight! Looks like a wonderful time was had by all! That wine sounds quite delicious…….I don’t suppose there was any chocolate about??????
Pam
It was too hot for chocolate… (I’m joking, of course!).
You should try this GatoNegro Chardonnay wine. It’s my favourite white wine, and there’s a cat on the label…
Al die lachende gezichten, dat zegt genoeg!!!
Ilse kijkt toch wel een beetje serieus en streng, niet? 😉
Wine AND cake? I’d have come to the party for that alone. Oh, and also to give Mr. Bowie a few chin skritches. :-p
Wine, cake and espresso! A perfect combination…
Cute post, and great pics, especially the last one! We’ll have to see if we can find that wine here in the United States. P.S. We were also laughing about my husband’s friends in the UK complaining about the heat–it was 100 degrees last week in New York! Hot is hot, no matter where you are. Ellie
Thanks HMC! You really should try this wine, it’s delicious.
Well, it seems summer has finally arrived everywhere…
Looks like it was a great party! Including: kids will form a coalition and kick your ass.
Beware if you’re in a water fight with kids, you’ll always lose… Trust me…
Happy Birthday Mr. Bowie. Looks like fun party. My invitation was lost in the mail? 😦
btw, my birthday is Friday, July 26. A good week for cats.
Thanks Suffragette Kitty, much appreciated! The invitation was sent via a homing pigeon. Maybe the flight was delayed…
HAIL TO ALL!! Your photos are always so lovely. HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Thank you very much, Cody!
LOL at this post. Has Mr Bowie seen the new O2 advert “Be More Dog”?
Mr Bowie would be very good in movies like this
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/weird-news/o2-be-more-dog-advert-2032166
Yes, I’ve seen it. Great advert, I wonder how they made it… But I think it would have been better with Mr. Bowie… 😉
How hot indeed? That’s a very strange looking thermostat… 😉
33°C is about 91.4°F. Hot enough for Mr. Bowie and the guests… 🙂
Ahh yes, 33 would be hot enough for me, too! Last summer when I put the thermostat in the sun, it rose to 47. Far too hot!
Let’s order ice cream… lots of ice cream!
Good idea! 😀
I bought that wine for the label and it’s pretty good. Come visit sometime.
If there’s a cat on a label, I’ll buy the product, no matter what it is…
Thanks for the invitation!
That wine sounds delicious!! What a fab party and I hope Mr Bowie’s ear gets better quickly. The modern medicine is good. 🙂
I like that wine (there’s one bottle left).
It looks like Bowie’s already feeling a little bit better…
Happy Belated Birthday!
Thank you Sarah. Bowie says “Meow!”
Looks like a wonderful party! Hope you and Mr. Bowie had a wonderful time. Sorry to hear about his ear. Poor Mr. Bowie 😦
I will take good care of my little friend!
I know you will. How’s he doing today?
He’s doing better. It seems the ear drops are working. (But he doesn’t like ear drops…)
I bet he doesn’t..
Hail! Hail! Hail! Encore! Bagheera approves of the wine selection: Gato Negro…
Let us all raise our glasses to the black cats!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Great photos, I like your collage.
Greetings from the sunny coast of Norfolk

Hi Klausbernd, thank you very much. Welcome on HoB!
Vive la famille!
Ah oui… En effet!
Hey, according to the calendar, July 21 is also a National Holiday in Belgium….hope there was lots of beer to drink, so many things to celebrate!
Boomdee, please keep in mind that Mr. Bowie’s Gotcha Day and my birthday is much important! 😉
There was no beer at our party; only cat milk, white wine and cocktails (based on Vodka, Passoã and pineapple juice).
