I have an appointment at the opticians tomorrow. I need a check up and I’m also going to ask about contact lenses. I’ve always had an aversion to them but Mr R has persuaded me to give them a go if I can get them in my prescription.

Laser not an option ?

I cant have contacts due to my scrip in one eye

Who? What?

For someone supposedly middle class and sophisticated he doesn't half watch some rubbish telly

Potsy just called me middle class and sophisticated.

Yebbut compared to @potsy what’s growing round the rim of your toilet is middle class and sophisticated...

I heard a line in the comedy gig last night and immediately thought of you:

"Waitrose in the street, Lidl between the sheets"

Right result. She had a good run but it was time to go.

Pretty shite day at the Birman yesterday.

Down a cat before I even left the house thanks to Lexi and her bald patch. In four of her classes, Poppy finished last in three and CNH in one. The very sweet comments from one judge made up for a lot, but the CNH was very harsh - just too much fannying around by a pedigree judge who really couldn't be arsed and not much bothering to actually just pick Poppy up and plonk her on the trolley. Makes me wonder why I bother showing these days.

On the upsides, I got reserve BIS in the bake-off with my blueberry conserve and second and third in the photo competition.

Next show is first Saturday in January, but am stewarding rather than exhibiting.

I went on a bike ride again today, as I took a picture of my new riser bars on my bike, I saw a column of smoke. I followed it, and a farmhouse was ablaze, and the volunteer fire departments and the N.F.D. were getting there. I went eight miles, longest in a while. When I got home, I finished preparations for my pulled pork, which I put in a tortilla with some shredded cabbage and carrots. I have dubbed this a Carnita Americano.

Well another morning where Kizzy thought I needed a wash so I got up and came downstairs followed by her and discovered there had been a Cat-astrophe in her world, all the biccies were gone. I suspect the black semi-feral Tom has been in for a scoff.

2 bowls refilled one with 'Go Kat' the other with 'Whiskas' and it's back to purring.
