Sparrows and others of that ilk

[John the Shorts]

I'm sorry folks but I just can't stop thinking about Red Dwarf!!

Paula - the idea of a 70s night sounds great but I'll have to wait a few years yet.

Oh dear, Byron, I haven't laughed so much in years Those poor cats

[lizzytysh]

Oh, heeeeeeeeeelp ~ I can't breathe In my first hurried reading at work, I missed that the second cat, the one in pursuit, was also bowl-attached ~ just how mad do you s'pose a cat can get!?!

[Paula]

Bryon your sisters place must have been surrounded by disorientated cats with fractured skulls. The local vet must have been totally confused with the amount of cats with brain damage eminating from that area.

JTS I am nearly 70. Only 20 years to go. Is it Butlins that puts you off we could go to Pontins or Golden Sands Caravan Park

[lizzytysh]

Oh G..d, Paula ~ the images just keep on coming, don't they !!! Yours being still another in the hall of hilarity . And all the more to be appreciated by those who know and love cats ~ please Byron find some cat mag to submit that to....even U.S.'s own Reader's Digest, if all else fails.

Not content with the total posts and posts per day records, it would appear that Tysh darling is now going for the most smilies in a short post record. A worthy first attempt but i am sure she can do better. Personally i find them a necessary evil caused by a basic lack of understanding of sarcasm and irony by so many here.

I'll work on that, Partisan . Thanks for staying in touch .

What about Scarborough (apparently they have a fair there) or Skegness - you can't beat a wet weekend in Skeggy

Partisan

Does a Smilie a Day keep Partisan away?

JTS (No smilies despite the temptation)

The parsley crops are ruined.
The sage stays in his tent all day and won't come out.
Rosemary is walking the streets
and time has stood still

whereas Skegness has the candy floss.

There's always Cleethorpes

Any advance on Cat Man Doo?

If the phone rings, tell them I've gone to Purrthshire.

[John the Shorts]

JTS thanks for reminding me. I've got my form on the sideboard ready to be filled in, but as usual it languishes next to the dross and detritus of unopened or junk mail. Thanks for the reminder.
Byron 'sends his form'.

Thanks for the laughs with so much reference to the feline species I can't resist a joke:
A man goes to the vet with his dog. The vet examines the dog and says sadly" I'm afraid there's nothing I can do" the man bursts into tears and says "I want a second opinion" The vet says ok and in walks a dog he walks around the poor unfortunate pet, shakes his head and walks from the room, the man sobs louder and says" no, no I want another opinion" the vet says ok and a cat comes into the room, he walks around the dog shakes his head sadly and leaves the room. The man then says "ok I accept he's finished, what do I owe you" the vet says "that will be £150"
"£150 screams the man, how come?" The vet replied " well with the second opinion and the cat scan..."

Hi Altin ~ I liked this joke the second time [here] as much as I did the first time [elsewhere] ~ particularly, as it reminds me sooooo much of my former [see joke for reasons] vet. And that is no joke .
