Cat talk
I'm a bad cat-parent. We've been neglecting the little ones of late and I feel guilty. Life interrupted, and Tangle hasn't fared so well. He's licked a bald patch on his front leg so I'm trying the leash training again,

Knocked out
Did you see it? Did you catch it's number? That train that ran me down, I think it was driven by this mad microbe out for revenge, and he got me good. I hate getting sick, especially at this end of the work month. Send chocolate.
A handbag?
Fascinating article in the Telegraph, £577 price tag as the handbag spills its secrets.

Feline Olympics
In the past twenty four hours my house has been host to the Feline Olympics, a contest to see which cat annoys me most. Tangle is way ahead after last night. These events have been completed so far:
* Tripathalon (Tangle takes the Gold)
* 100 yards dash-pounce
* Wake the hand that
Highlights of the trip
We flew out on Sunday, and got back on Friday. Checked into a New Jersey hotel and got the bus over into Manhattan, much nicer than driving there. London Underground veterans need not fear the NY Subway. I was a little concerned when we checked in that we were only
