I have that with a lady who walks a Scots Terrier which is white, along with a little white cat, near church. Symbolic?

Back when I was a postgrad student and lived in a very urban area, my then cat was an indoor cat as there was no was I could cat-proof the garden. But I used to take him on a lead and harness for a regular constitutional to the local park, which was at the end of the road.

Made people do a double take to see a cat trotting along on a lead as opposed to a dog! He even learnt to sit at the kerb while we waited to cross the road. Smart boy, and I miss him.

I've got four left. So that'll be two each, assuming yours didn't get lost in transit.

Will need to re-fill the biscuit barrel. Big decision. Do I go for dark chocolate digestives, chocolate chip digestives, shortbread fingers or gingerbread hearts filled with jam?

I realised I forgot to buy pink wafers yesterday.

They haven't arrived yet!

How do the occupants feel about it?

They seemed to like it a lot. Running around, 'pop corning' and generally being in a different location than normal. The guinea pigs spent about 4 hours in there - they were happy, my daughter and wife are happy, and therefore I am happy.

Good morning.

Looks like another scorcher today, so the shutters on the south facing windows are all closed.

Time for work...

Morning world hope we are all ok ?

Now that would really mess with a Drazi's head...

What is a Drazil

Morning.
Grey here at the moment. No I'm not about to use some Grecian 2000, it's the weather that's grey.
I have got to take my car to the garage to sort the bonnet locking and alarm out .

I just looked up Drazil and now l know that it is drazi and babylon five , l live a sheltered life ....not having heard of either up until now !

I don't know what a drazi is but I've seen references to Babylon 5 on this thread. That's all I need to know really.

In other news, it's good morning tea time.

I didn't know Bromptons were carnivorous.

Mine is. It was parked peacefully as I turned to lock the motorhome door and it saw its chance and leapt at me.

Well I've taken my car in for them to sort it out . Being woken up at 2.45 isn't a pleasant experience ! . Everything was going well until they mentioned some magic words which set me off! " Not everything is covered by the extended warranty ! ".
I almost turned green and started ripping my shirt. I explained that when I last heard those words I immediately got onto Jaguar Customer Services and that they should have a quiet word with the sales manager as I had only bought the car in June and it has been agreed that the work is to be done .
I'm a bit fiery at the moment !

You are not the only one. Am I the only person who has not seen a Star War film? Or shall we form a (very small) elite club?

Dark chocolate suggestives, custard creams and shortbread fingers please, or better still "Highlanders" those round shortbread biscuits, and custard creams.

On third thoughts, not the chocolate suggestive biskits. In an effort to continue losing weight, I have cut out the choccy. After one week's abstention, I no longer miss it.

Perhaps the visual strangeness of a TV programme (Babylon 5) that reminded me of a visit to a place near where l live. It is called Pech Merle . Now if you feel the need to be aware of your place in the evolution of human beings, just go and visit Pech Merle. Approximately 25,000 years ago our forbears made these truly beautiful images deep underground . To me they raise so many more questions than answers, it is a place you will never forget !!
