Oi! My sister in law is one of them, she's been on the telly and everything.

No exceptions!

I have a lapful of purring tortoiseshell cat.

Tiger decided this evening that she absolutely must investigate the contents of my fridge to see if there is anything she would like to eat.

Tiger decided this evening that she absolutely must investigate the contents of my fridge to see if there is anything she would like to eat.

And was there anything that took her fancy?

 

[Speicher]

She had already eaten some soft cat food, and some biscuits. I think she likes cheese, but I do not want to give her anything unusual in case it upsets her delicate tummy. At home she gets all sorts of treats, but as she is not my cat, just a very frequent visitor, I just offer cat food etc.

 

[Reynard]

Most cats like cheese. I know the girls certainly do.

 

[Speicher]

I think she likes cheese, but it contains a lot of salt, doesn't it? If her staff give her cheese, s'okay, but I won't be doing that.

Yeah. It's why the girls only get some occasionally as a treat.

Though cream cheese and squeezy cheese go down well and have a much lower salt content.

There are always cheese dreamies though.

I’ve found the secret with one-to-ones in the past has been to try and gently turn them around so that you get your boss telling you how it’s going for them and how they think they’re doing. It’s tricky, but with a little finesse it can be done without them noticing.

My current boss is far too canny and so we don’t bother with one-to-ones at all unless one of us has something specific they need to discuss.

my line manager is a nice lad, but hes 30 ish im 52 ,he has only worked for this company.
i play the game..he does often ask me things as most at work do about all sorts.
i am a bit of an agony aunt, but i listen and answer honestly.

his major fault is he has No concept of other peoples time!! He waffles and forgets most things at convenient times, he is very good at that,he is a manager after all...

It'll give her nightmares!

I'm going to have a and then head off to the Land of Nod

And as it's technically not Friday anymore, I can reveal that I baked a loaf of oat and sesame bread, made tabbouleh, concocted a yoghurt, mint and garlic sauce and cooked a batch of sausages.

Had a lovely supper of cold roast lamb, tabbouleh, raw baby spinach and the yoghurt, mint and garlic sauce. Followed by a tiffin slice.

 

[Gravity Aided]

I may lunch at a Mongolian restaurant tomorrow.

Tired of Dad Dancing, I've been wondering about learning to waltz. Do you need to get a duelling scar in order to look the part? I've got a huge scar on my leg but that probably doesn't count.

It'd depend on what you were duelling with at the time, surely.
