    That looks just like my junior puddy tat, black as Ace of Spades and twice as daft.

    How sweet.I love black cats.I have seen one petite wee cat,all black,except one side of her whiskers are white-quite bizarre,but what a wee beauty.

    Not a(n) NSD for me today - needed milk, which really is essential she you don't drink anything non-alcoholic apart from tea with milk in!!

    So quick shop stop and spent just shy of £15 on two types of milk (essential), fruit (5 a day is essential right, it's like the law!), bread and bacon (essential for The Morning After on Sunday!), biscuits (essential to keep OH happy!) and flowers (cos I deserve to be happy too! Although do feel a little guilty about that £6 spend!)

    So took the opportunity of a spendy day to fill petrol tank and will no doubt be expected to collect beer later for that sport thing that is apparently happening tomorrow, don't know if any of you know about this but apparently it's quite a big deal?!?!

    Oh yes,there is some kind of sport shindig featuring a big field and a ball-what's it called again?:rotfl::rotfl:
    some English chaps are playing against some other country...Actually I might watch it,but with a cold can or two of non-alcoholic beer:)
    So, marmite, t2rry, ShirePiskie, beanie, Knitwitch, Hubert, cw, and Igor makes 8 in the team, roll up, roll up, all volunteers welcome! We have had a challenge from FOBSAGSKWACAOM (Federation Of Bankers, Shopkeepers And General Scurvy Knaves Who Are Constantly After Our Money) so I am sure there will be no shortage of people just dying to get their hockey sticks round the ankles of such fine folk.

    Igor has planned the spit roast [STRIKE]donkey[/STRIKE] no, not you Hubert, sweetie, we need you in goal, I mean roadkill of whatever variety he should encounter that will make a good meal for 2 hockey teams, a number of reserves and various supporters.
    And, you may ask, what is the Nargle planning to do on that day?

    Well, with Igor catering, somebody has to nip to the takeaway! Pizzas ok for everyone?

    Does Igor realise that a spit roast has nothing to do with spit?!:eek::eek:

    nargle you are being brave,are you sure it's wise to criticise his fusion-style cooking......he is a bit of a Prima Donna in the kitchen,after all.Remember what happened when someone unwisely sent back his snail souffl!.....:eek::eek:

    I wish he would stick to simple dishes,like scrambled eggs/beans on toast.
