If you want to CAT someone, is it the done thing to ask them first on a post they're on? TIA.

I know it was a joke

I called her a Northern Jessie

You dont think Rhubarb could upset me do you? pah!

And harpsi, less of the sheep jibes please or Ill get Dino on you

Greensleeves · 16/10/2006 15:57

everyone knows the Welsh don't eat leeks.

They wear them, on their heads

MwaHaHappyDaddy · 16/10/2006 15:55

I've never CATd you, WelshBoris. You'll be pleased to know!

harpsichordcarrion · 16/10/2006 15:03

no, I suspect she meant sheep bothering.

MellowMonsta · 16/10/2006 15:03

I suppose you could "kind of" take that as a compliment. She must feel she knows you and can joke with you to call you that. Noone CAT's me, even to call me names, lol, I suppose that is a good thing

SamhainWitch · 16/10/2006 15:03

It will have been a typo Welshy.

She meant daffodil eating.

NOMurDErousPLUME · 16/10/2006 15:01

was, not wss

NOMurDErousPLUME · 16/10/2006 15:01

Sorry you were upset by it. I guess she thought she wss being witty

WelshBoris · 16/10/2006 14:59

I dont eat leeks

It just wasnt funny

NOMurDErousPLUME · 16/10/2006 14:57

are you joking, WB ?

That sounds like Rhubarb's SOH tbh.

WelshBoris · 16/10/2006 14:56

I wasnt going to tell anyone this

but last week Rhubarb CATd me

and called me a leek eating lesbian

Blimey welshy - abuse?

Mercy · 16/10/2006 14:51

Really WB . I thought CAT messages were vetted by MN before they are passsed on. Obviously I'm wrong

moondog · 16/10/2006 14:49

lol
Do you really WB?!

WelshBoris · 16/10/2006 14:48

Id be happy to have something other than abuse which is what I usually get

Thanks

Thank you very much. (I might CAT you both later for practice!)

Nope.

Those who really don't want to be contacted via CAT will have opted out (there is a part on the 'your registration' page where you can specify no CATs)

WelshBoris · 16/10/2006 14:40

No I get CATd all the time

its great
