    Thanks Laks, what does this actually mean? do they stop spammers?

    It's not for spammers, it's for those companies that use those automatic dialling machines just to call numbers, and then when you answer, there's no-one on the other side.
    It is a scientific fact that your body will not absorb calories if you take it from another person's plate.
    :A :A :A
    Chocolate is the answer and I don't give a damn what
    the question is.;)

    Hi all. :hello:

    Korky: Your cat looks like almost like a pirate in the second photograph. ;) :eek: :rotfl:


    hi laks :hello: :D he was a pirate :D:rotfl:a nice one mind :D

    Awwww Korky, was he resurrected as my neighbour's cat :o aww hunni you sound like you gave him so much love, which is not surprising knowing you here..

    mmmm I am obviously female :o don't really know why I chose this name...I think I did a short story called No Name Woman as part of my course, and I think it has, only slightly, some parallels with how I feel re living-on-a-hyphen, the inbetweeness if this makes sense...anyway enough philosophising, and yes, I did have a tiny brandy before you ask :D

    thanks NNW :A i still miss him loads :o
    but have the neighbours cat come visiting every day :D:eek:
    stays in my house more than theirs :eek: think i'm to soft 'cause i spoil him :o:D


    i remember when you first came on here & said you called yourself nonamewoman 'cause you were the queen :D:D do you remember i asked you if you realy was :o:rotfl::rotfl:

    your name sounds lovely, all mysterious & intriguing :D
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png

    Hello Peeps:beer:

    Isle of Man is a beautiful place. lived there from end of 1994 - aug 2002 ( bought breeze aug 2000) .
    saw first TT races 2005 and went out n got meself a motorbike :D. was 17 . n got myself a 650cc when i was 19, cant imagine why the insurance was so high those days:cool:
    co drove in a 12 stage rally and all sorts.
    wish id never left as maybe lots of things that have happened wouldnt have.:eek:
    But, all my friends can;t wait to see me and horse again, and although it will feel strange going back i am looking forward to it:D
    ( well, once my horse and cats are there safe i will be:rotfl:).
    and i wont be working 24/7 and out from 6am til midnight or not home again that night due to be too busy and crashing at friends houses:rotfl: . will still do the going to cocktail bar thing tho:beer:
    Oh and my friend that had the car crash in december, is alot better, ( not able to go to work etc though) and can speak again etc. and back in her own home:j so we will be able to chill out and catch up. beer and a game of pool, like the old days.

    OK am rambling, got a mega headache so best go finish the dailies.


    Hope everyone gets wins tomorrow:j

    night everyone:D

    Korky,
    love the photos of your cat, gorgeous.
    one of my ferals that stalked me, and moved in when he was 1.5 years old, was a bit wild ( very, and fast with teeth and claws, if i annoyed him he would jump onto my shoulder and chew on my arm/neck. quite vicious) He is so sweet and loves his cuddles, jumps into my arms on command, and goes for walks on the lead. I think with alot of them, time, patience and tlc works well.
    on the other hand we have one that looks very like a scottish wild cat, cant meow, just chirps etc. and very wild.
    am rambling again.

    Night
    x

    hi breeze :j wow, must of been great, loved motorbikes as well when younger :o:D only sat on the back of them though :D
    sounds like it's going to be a good move for you to go back to I.O.M :A
    good to hear your friends ok now, a lot of weight of your mind :)

    aww, korky used to bite terrible as well :eek: & as you say, a lot of love & patience works miracles :) we still have lots of semi wild ones on the allotments near us but i only go up to feed them,
    help the local cat rescue catch the females to spay them so's they don't keep reproducing, we raise funds with jumble sales, raffles etc to help out for them :)

    you never ramble, love reading & hearing all your news :D
    specially about the animals :A

    Awww Korky he's gorgeous xx Hopefully you find some consolation in loving the neighbour's cat, may be you can get a kitten yourself, no?

    :o:o No hun, don't remember, in fact, if anything the name is meant to refer to any woman who lives contradictions etc

    Skippy ... well done, am still struggling with the ones ending the 8th and I have a terrible work week ahead. Tomorrow I have to be up at 6.00 :( not really looking forward ...been feeling really low today and can't get myself to sleep but I will try to not too late ...

    Night Breeze, glad things seem positive x good to hear your friend has improved too, hope you have great re-union with all your friends soon x

    hi skippy :wave:
    yes, it's sad when they have to leave us :sad: but we've given them a good life the best we could & might sound daft as some people think they're only animals but to me i believe they still are with us & watch over us :)

    i'm way behind with comps again :eek::rotfl:have loads of subscribed ones to catch up with :eek::eek: better knuckle down :D:D

    Evening all :)

    Aw korky, your cat was lovely. :) My neighbours cat scratched youngest yesterday and she was very upset as he's normally very friendly!

    Hope ppd & plush are ok xx

    Had a good night last night in the end after much debating about going out! My knees are all scraped though cos I did grease lightening on them on the dance floor. :o I also have a big bump on my head cos I banged it on the bog roll holder! :D Luckily I didn't feel it as I had too many drinks by then! Fell asleep on the toilet when I got home and I've literally just started recovering!

    Laks.. belated hugs for yesterday hun ;)
