Brunel, Brecon and Britannia

Our Three Tonkinese Cats

Now nearly seven years old, they still behave like kittens and keep us entertained.  Brunel learnt the hard way about not crossing roads when he was knocked down by a car.  He survived without any broken bones but lost chunks of fur all over and was badly bruised.   

The names? - since the cats are chocolate and cream, the colour of the coaches on the old Great Western Railway, they come from the grand list of names that were used on the GWR locomotives at various times. ('County of Brecon', 'Isambard Kingdom Brunel' and 'Britannia').  All our cats have been named after suitable locos.  Others have been 'Hardwicke' (L&NWR), 'Clunchen' (after Clun Castle, GWR), 'Achilles' (GWR), 'Sir Nigel' and 'Quicksilver' (LNER)

This photo won Vin second prize at one of the Camera Club competitions.  He tried for years to get them all saying cheese together!
