Ow
Sailing might be good fun, but every little bit of me aches today (except, suprisingly for my stomach). I can hardly bear to leave the house and haul my aching carcass around, but the prospect of Slinky without food and the screams that would ensue, strike terror into my heart and I must go to the shops.
He has been relentless in his attempts to break me, by banshee like wailing, until I collapse and he can lie on me. You have no idea how truly annoying this is unless you are the parent of a three month old with colic, or have an elderly Burmese cat in your life. No amount of cuddling or putting him in his nice little sling bed helps, he just wants a human to lie on and I am the only one in the house. Don't even think ah, how cute for a second. He is a truly horrible specimen of cathood. He is the scrawniest cat around but takes delight in tormenting Gypsy Tart's cat by staring at her through the cat flap and hissing at her. When she and Ra take to the garden, he appears on the garden wall to stare and intimidate them until they return to the house. He's probably frightened they'll take his cosy living from him and the ways things are going, that's a distinct possibility.

I think Slinky ought have his own web log.

Sorry to hear of your aches and pains Mrs. M, but they are of course self inflicted from your sailing fun. I remember the day of Live Aid I was libing in thr west country and my neighbour talked me into doing a work out at the local gym with him and his girlfriend. It was a lot of fun and afterwards we bought lots of beer and wine and watched Live Aid. Next day I had OBC and Val coming down for lunch and boy was I in agony. Now, if I get the urge to do anything more energetic than walk across a pub car park, I lie down until the feeling goes away.

There's a job going in Rome for a frail, infirm old moaner. Can't you pack Slinky off there?

Sadly Slinky is too liberal for this job, but Mr McMuffin is happy to be deeply misogynous, to store up his riches on earth, have a job for life as the no. 1 autocrat and is converting as we speak.
