Good question...
I can tell you though, simply ignoring a cat doesn't work.
You can accidentally shut them in the garage for a few hours.

My garden is currently masquerading as a pebble processing facility.
All the pebbles covering the drainage channel need to be lifted, so that the silt can be removed, and some patio slabs lifted and relaid.
Some pebbles are clean, some are covered in silt need a wash. I do not want to put the small quantities of dirty water down the drain, so I am reusing the water as often as possible. There is also bits of brick and concrete which is being separated from the pebbles, and giant pebbles which shouldn't be with the drainage channel pebbles. They will go at the end of the garden that does not drain well, and will make a decorative path.
If you think you can remember which bucket is for what, then you are welcome to help.
Kizzy is supervising by sitting in the shade under the table.

They have a fenced off area on the beach where the sand sculptures are.

We have just got back. I was impressed with the centre of Hull. The Deep was fantastic, I can thoroughly recommend it to everyone, and the regeneration of the old quays is very good.
So Hull is off my list off places to poke fun at, it was very pleasent. The added bonus is that we were there whilst everybody was indoors watching something called "the football" so there was hardly anybody about.

You missed a good game
On the radio yesterday there was mention of how much return and regeneration has come from quite modest investment in its capital of culture year. A success by the sound of it.

Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt several times.
Note: this doesn't work if you shut a cat in a kitchen cupboard. The volume function will not turn off.

Some good motorsport to be had today.
As usual, Vettel gets off almost scott free for ruining someone else's race. 5 second penalty was a joke. But then again, we all know that FIA stands for Ferrari International Assistance.
The BTCC meeting from Croft was a cracker though. Shame have to wait for a month for the next one at Snetterton.

I dunno... This one had stuff in it I'd rather not have been reminded of. 12 years down the line and it still smarts.

Well, yes, of course...
I'd have preferred Ari Vatanen tbh, but we're stuck with the froggy toad.

Not mundane (or quiet) evening: at the Albert Hall for Nine Inch Nails. Judging by the setlist from Friday (they played the Festival Hall, Meltdown festival) it should be a cracker. Somehow didn't spend any money at the merch stall... Checked out the Christo installation in the Serpentine, it looks great.
