You'll be having "Elevenses" when the time is right?

I just can't believe how pampered you all are in the UK ! Someone actually comes and takes your rubbish away for you

I dropped a glove on my ride earlier whilst stopped on a bridge for a photo.

With it balancing on a ledge below I managed to lever two sticks down, and one into the glove.

Having rescued one of a nice pair of Galibier gloves I'm now having a cake out as a treat

Blooming Simba, every blooming morning from about 4am. Scratches the drawers at MrsF's side, then comes round to do mine. If you shoo him away, he then bounces on the bed and repeat. Usually means he want's out into the 'catio'. The other 3 are happy to wait until we get up.

Chilly and grey here chez Casa Reynard.

This morning, I have put away all the shopping and re-jigged cupboards and fridges, and i have also done some writing.

My green bin was finally emptied this morning.

It is almost time for luncheon.

I shouldn't laugh, but...

Just be grateful he doesn't bite your nose.

Off for some beer and food tonight after work. With a bunch of Senior Managers so better behave. My 'drinking buddy' senior boss isn't here anymore - he's left . It's 9 women and two blokes. The new chap did say on Monday 'see you for a beer on Wednesday' - so hopefully he likes a few pints. Heading to a well known Gin bar first (most of my female colleagues like gin) but it was my idea to go there as it's a good bar, and get's everyone out an hour earlier ! The beer is OK too.

Every morning. He's too soft to bite. He just bounces on the bed, if you try and catch him he bounces off, then comes back a minute later. We shut him out this morning.

Lexi bites you when she needs a whim catered to. Poppy just stares at you. Except if you're in bed, and then she goes into full charm mode, headbutting and purring and shoving whiskers up your nose in a bid to butter you up...

We have taken Georgie to the vet . He didn't want to go . The vet found 2 puncture wounds in his head , one just above his eye and the other one on top of his head , bite marks. He is now on antibiotics. At the moment Georgie is behind the settee, his usual feel safe place .

Had a beef fillet & horseradish sandwich, a pear, some strawberries and two for luncheon.

It is raining here. It wasn't forecast. I demand my money back.

Wise thing to do. Cat bites are notorious for becoming infected. Hope the fella mends quickly.

Cat bites are also a transmission vector for, amongst other things, FIV and FeLV. Which is why it's important to neuter your cats, as neutered cats are less likely to get into scraps over territory and members of the opposite sex. It's not to say neutered cats won't have a bust up if they can't stand each other, but it does reduce the risk by a significant margin.

The forecast here in Hamtun said no rain, too, until it started then they changed it to 'raining'... I know that! I looked out of the window!

Fools..

@fossyant - at least it's not as bad as one of my son's cats. He's discovered that if he sticks his paw up your nose, claws out, whilst you're asleep then the person will wake up. He's not realised that I'm not amused with being woken up in that way.
