Waiting to confess

Interesting to see another church image this week, though mine lacked a cat. :-) HBM and have a good week, Maggs.

I think it looks very comfortable and well used to waiting to confess!!

You are probably right Maggs. Hope the pain eases off. Well done.

HBM, enjoy the day. Herb

It's definitely going down the scale!

anyhow the cat seems to be at ease, HBM! When you feel you can reduce the painkillers, you should anyhow try.

Yup, lower dose is certainly on.

Great news if you can reduce painkillers now... and fortunately no need to confess how many you have taken, hahaha

I can straighten up from sitting with just an ache rather than an extended ouch as I do it :-)))

Il occupe une place préférentielle. Juste à côté de la sortie.
HBM et agréable semaine clémente et salutaire.

C'est un chat d'une grande intelligence!!

Aw love the cat Maggie!!
More good news re: your back.
Have a good new week.

You too Rosa!

Certainly 1 or 2 mice. they seldom overeat, that is left to homo sapiens ...!

HBM & Have a great week

I've known several fat cats!!

The cat is the absolute highlight of this photo :-) And you chose the perfect title for it. Great! :-)))
HBM, Maggs, and have a good week!

Aw thanks Edna.

Have a good week yourself!

nice view. Have a good week

You too Trudy

Benches enough here.

I wonder how often they are full ...

I remember the saying, "as poor as a church mouse" so no easy pickings for the cat in here Maggs, It must be local as it is not grinning like a Cheshire one ;-))
Basic benches but a quaint little church, HBM and a good week.

I've now looked it up on the tourist guide its quite interesting.

"The small, whitewashed Igreja da Nossa Senhora da Graça (church of Our Lady of Grace), in the precinct of Sagres fortress, was built in the 1570s on the site of a chapel first erected by order of Infante D. Henrique (Henry the Navigator).

The church interior is pleasingly simple, with a single aisle and a gold-painted wooden altar believed to date from the 17th century which has an image of Our Lady with the Christ Child in the centre. On either side of the altar are two statues, both believed to have been salvaged from the Franciscan convent at the Cape of St Vincent. One of the statues depicts St Francis, and the other (shown holding a ship) depicts St Vincent, one of the patron saints of Lisbon. The story goes that in 12th century, Afonso Henriques vowed to find the remains of the martyred saint if he was able to conquer Moorish occupied Lisbon. When the triumphant King sent his troops to search for the saint’s remains, they were found in a cave at the Cape of St Vincent, guarded by a flock of crows. From here they were taken to Lisbon Cathedral, where, the story goes, they are protected by crows to this very day." Travel in Portugal.

That is fascinating Maggs, thank you.

Have a great week Fred!

Warten auf die Kirchenmaus :)

Hope the mouse kept well away!

Une belle scène bien cadrée et un descriptif très amusant sur la présence du chat !
Bonne semaine, Maags ! HBM !

Merci bien Henri. Bonne semaine aussi

Very nice interior Maggs.
HBM have a great week.

;-)))))))
HBM and have a good week!

Glad you like it, you have a great week too

HBM und eine fröhliche Woche!

HBM Ernst!

HBM und eine gute Woche.
Erich

Danke!

An empty room, nobody is there to confess, and cats are too self-confident to do this;-))) HBM Maggs.

Cats are too smug NOT to confess!! :-))

I agree;-))

Lol! Great catch and title! HBM! Stay well!

Thanks William, stay well.

Sorry didn't know reason for painkillers but fully understand the need to reduce these things as I'm doing the same for both parents on a strictly regulated basis. We don't want to go down the US route viz opiates and even codein!.

Nothing to agonise about, except it agonised me! Strained lumbar muscles and nothing stronger than ibuprofen and paracetamol, I've had restricted mobility, but today it's down to a dullish ache ....

It’s good that this church has guardian. And I hope the cat will keep away the evil from it. Sometimes coincidence helps to take nice pictures ! Wish you a nice week ahead ! HBM !

St. Francis would approve!

Love it when you are being watched intently and you have no idea!
