Meanwhile this thread gets dafter by the posting, how is one supposed to communicate if everything has to be off topic. Clearly, a bit like P&O's embarkation system, I don't seem to understand how it can ever work. :sarcasm: 8-) ;) :lol:

Not surprised if you pay £60pp for fish and chips, no doubt dressed up with some fancy name to make it sound like your getting something special. :)

Gorgeous. Now that I am catless, my tragic feline-free life is greatly enhanced by seeing your lovely animals.

Another live mice appeared Sunday morning!! Decided to lock both cat flaps so cat could only get out and not back in - bloody thing strolled in at midnight after negotiating how to open the cat flap round the other way!!! Luckily with no mouse in tow! I give up!

Quite right Batty. Just a reminder, these were the original rules.

Yes I was a little tongue in cheek when I started when we were being birched daily by the Modplods for mucking up other threads. Since then we have all relentlessly breached all those rules. But we have avoided the birch :sarcasm:
