    The perfect post for a frosty morning. I especially like the black cats (having 3 of my own).

    There is a fantastic show of Savignac's work in Trouville this summer; to see the posters actual size and the texture of the originals is a revelation. Of course Savignac is now Trouville! Our visit, his life and some photos here. http://www.normandythenandnow.com/udders-savignac-and-trouville-sur-mer/
