See? You're still alive

Er... yes, I seem to be... (Tries to check own pulse)

*Kitty purrs and rolls over for Ormondroyd to tickle his tummy*

PRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So... go on then, Ormy

Hmmmm, I think Ormy made a wise choice *not* tickling Kitty. The only time I tried tickling a cat on the tum I ended up with four sets of claws and a set of teeth in it Still, he *is* a Siamese and he's so cute I had to forgive him.

Oh well, time for a lunchtime . Small consolation after England's rather disappointing performance in the rugby yesterday What is it about our national sporting teams which allows them to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory?

Ahhh, BluesSlider! A cat claws you and you still say he's cute...a man after my own heart. *And* said cat is Siamese. All the better.

Even bigger shame that the Irish couldn't capitalise on that result by using the wrong stand off for the whole match. We should have brought Humphies on earlier and been a little more attacking in the kicking area of the game.

DD I think we both need another Zmrzlina, I know its a little early for you but can I offer you a ?

Just as long as its not Welsh.

Can you imagine a Siamese cat with a Welsh accent?

Thank-you, BluesSlider for the , but I have to fly. I am facing a miserable Monday commute and I am already late

Bye, for now!

Yeah mine was more horrible than usual today it took 10 minutes to cover the last mile. What was worse was as it was downhill you could see the office the whole time.

Mondays must be bad traffic day all over the world

Ah well at least Friday will be good as usual. Something to look forward too.

I'll drink to that

I'll drink a LOT to that - I've missed several rounds.

There you go Bluebottle, that should get you started

Thanks BS.
Have a from me.
So, what you been up to?

Hi everyone,
*leans down and puts catnip pillow under Ormondroyd's chair*
I like beer in the same way as I like wine. Lager and keg beer should be served chilled like white wine, "good" beer should be at room temperature, or as someone earlier said, cellar temperature which could be slightly lower than the room temperature but not icy cold.

So could I have a of your best Menza, and how hot's your cellar?

Thanks BB, I'll have a of Grumpfuttocks. Vestboy, Menza is not usually in until the evening (GMT/BST) but I can get you a .
