While sitting in direct sunshine the fur on my black cat seems to have a maroon hue to it.

A pint of Guinness also appears black but in strong light it also has that same deep reddish colour.

Interesting or no?

Not interesting, then. OK.

In sunlight, my cats appear to have almost bengali markings.

Something that amazed me was some years ago I went on a submarine in Tenerife. My nail varnish changed colour the deeper we went.

Sometimes black cats can look brown...apparently caused by the sun.

I don't know about Guinness...maybe I need to get some. 🍺 <<<<wrong colour I know.

That's one for the Science section, BM. Did it change back to normal when you surfaced?

too much Irish milk perhaps?

Barmaid

I think so. I was so spaced out (my two fears are claustropobia and drowning) that I headed to a bar for a stiff drink. I do not remember much about the rest of that day.

What prompted you to go into the submarine?

It's not something I'd do.

Barmaid

sandyRoe, it was a question of compromise. Mr BM wanted to do the submarine thing (a no from me); I wanted to go whale watching on a small boat (a no from him). It was actually not too bad and I was able to maintain control and calm throughout employing some techniques I had been taught when doing a course of hypnotherapy. Then we went on the small boat which was fantastic (although he was a bit sick, bless him). All in all we had a great time.

I only do not remember it because we then went to our favourite bar staffed by a barman we knew and got absolutely shedded.
