We are now discussing if the fish was obtained from the chippy (or their bin), a neighbour's dinner or a neighbour's cat's dinner.

Loki is currently looking incredibly pleased with himself.

Explain it to him sternly, then just do what he wants anyway - isn't that what usually happens?

That's on my Kobo wishlist now! Thank you.

Scottish wildcat? Beautiful, but much as I love cats I also like having my hands in one piece.

All over, felt sad. Watched Howl's Moving Castle - my son refused The Fellowship of the Ring which was unreasonable, but Studio Ghibli is always a good choice. Son is now a huge fan of Calcifer.

I scrape it, scattering slightly overdone (to me at least) crumbs over the sink area, while cursing the toaster.

It amazes me, the fact it's still there after over 2,000 years despite the fact that, unlike Avebury, Silbury or Stonehenge, it's needed active maintenance to keep it from disappearing. There's something quite awe inspiring about that.

That's ok, don't think I've said it before!

I really love your Mari art!

My cousin had it in the UK, early 80s. Not nice at all.

When I had my son in 2013 they were offering maternal vaccinations so the baby would be protected until they could be vaccinated. Didn't hesitate to accept it.

And mainly all the people. The people I've worked with over the years - all of them, colleagues, people using the service, colleagues in other organisations.

A flyer that brings back the bad buffet at an event, at the bottom of a box a Christmas card from a service user who died, reports from a slightly disastrous conference and s fantastic conference that brought change, photos from staff Christmas parties.

You keep writing such interesting books!

Excellent, I'll look forward to that.

Mine only ever showed an interest in male cats. Female cats in heat terrified him. He was terrible at hunting as well, he generally wanted to be friends with all living things.

Pretty much what I did. It's not a big deal unless you make it one.
