h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

It's 4 days later and my is still missing
I feel like I'm about to vote conservative as last night as I was getting ready for bed, I could swear I heard purring. Or as a ugoslav I work with would say "click and the sound of a cat"

I belive this email I've been sent spells the difference between cats and dogs.

Oh, this is wonderful, Apparition!
Let us know when Cleo turns up again, and I hope she does!
DO NOT VOTE CONSERVATIVE - you will regret it forever.

I won't vote conservative. I've since had coffee

Ah, solves a multitude of problems.

I love the email, especially the Diary of the Cat...Sorry about Cleo...

I had hope until Megan, last night, said she thinks cleo is mort.

Poor baby ! Will you get another one?

I saw your entry about her being back. That's wonderful!
