Two catnip cigars, two catnip sardines. They left the scent on everything they touched and that was somehow enough to send the cats berserk. Tomorrow will be fun.

The Yeeeow ones?

Those are particularly potent...

Oh lovely, much nicer without all the usual marzipan and thick icing.

 

[Reynard]

Whaaaa?

I know...

OK, no locations were mentioned specifically as it's supposedly imaginary, but the description was for a station that was a combination of modern "bus shelter" type architecture on one side, and equipped for a heritage steam and diesel railway on the other. If that's not a description of Alton, then I don't know what is...

All that's needed is the stop for the #64 bus...

I've just blamed the Sellotape.

Top tip! Thanks.

 

[Reynard]

yes, thank you for the recommendation. this one seems good. doesn't pinch arm hairs. easily adjustable. has a dressy look.

I've got a cpl other types coming in the mail. ballistic mesh, 2 diff. brands, 2 diff colors

Mom still has a mother watch of his, practically identical. nothing fancy. but I might take it as well, so I can have a choice of strap, w/o having to change the strap

YVW. I am rather partial to the all stainless steel look. And I find it eminently practical.

Yes, exactly those!

 

[Reynard]

Yes, exactly those!

I usually source them from cat shows... The do these pink furry cushion things as well. The girls have one, but it has gone missing. The valerian cushions from Zooplus are particularly good as well.

Fr. Christmas is bringing a telephoto zoom lens for my Panasonic cameras for Christmas. It is an Olympus lens, but the lens mount is the same.

Sounds good, enjoy

Sort of catnip grass?

So did I. Something about Patsy ! Lifting story.

So this is Christmas,
And what have you done?
I've eaten the mince pies
And drank Sandeman port.

I suppose I'd better try to join in with the festivities
