He's just eaten all his dinner, topped it up with dry food and also taken the painkiller tablet that was hidden in it. Result. I think stopping the Metacam is helping.

Good afternoon, thank you for new thread. Lovely cats, my tax attached.

Pointythings, he is beautiful. I'm sorry to hear that he is poorly, it broke my heart when any of ours were poorly. They become part of you.

It's good that he took his medicine.

Pretty bird, yes, I still get the wtf when I hear his name.

How many times did Priti Patel break the ministerial code?

Sorry to read that, pointythings, he's a beauty. Hope he's with you for a long time.

Found you! I thought you were all conspicuous by your absence!

Madam checking out the neighbours for tax.

Just seen your posts @pointythings. So sorry, it’s heartbreaking and he’s far too young. 💐

Priti [Patel] is the Brat candidate in this election,” one Tory MP told @politicshome

🎓 She made her name as a Boris Johnson loyalist and remains a hit with the members. Can Priti Patel be the next Tory leader?

Oh good Lord. Do they realise how low they poll with anyone younger than 50? Why would they try to use slang?!
(Yes I had to google modern usage of Brat).

What is the modern usage of Brat?

Brat https://amp.theguardian.com/music/article/2024/jul/26/charli-xcx-from-slow-burn-popstar-to-brat-us-election-influencer

which Priti Patel most definitely is not.

The Urban dictionary said it had something to do with BDSM 😂

Found ya.

Sorry been trying to keep up whilst away with DS at Aquatics GB championships.

Then today we got caught up on A34 - major crash involving military vehicles who overturned closing both directions.

L1ttledrummergirl · 27/07/2024 20:33

How did your ds get on?

As far as I can gather it’s a reincarnation of the Ladette. Not so worried about appearances, more relaxed, not so obsessively groomed as women seem to have become.

Bloody hell, I was out there this morning, so glad I missed it!

Patel formally enters the leadership race.

Oh yippee! 🤬

They've learnt nothing.

BIossomtoes · 27/07/2024 23:30

Good. Let’s hope they don’t wise up any time soon. I’d like them to have a very long stay in the wilderness.

Since she's a longstanding Johnson loyalist she might even win if she makes the final two.

Hello! Can I join this charming thread, please. I think the new government is coming along very nicely.

Here is my spoilt brat of a cat.

Thank you. She’s part black bengal and has the sassiness to match. Miss Catitude is what the vet calls her.

My little Tennyson is described by the vet as "a bit of a handful" 😂 Here he is just after his operation to remove part of his tail after he had an accident.

If they vote her to be leader that proves my point that they've learnt nothing.
