Double cat tax here because we need a haven of cats and other small joys.

Thank you Duncin

And we thought these threads would fill up more slowly.

Did anyone else see this coming? I know the murdered in Southport were the catalyst but I'm sure the SM keyboard warriors must have just been hiding their time for the right moment to light the match?

Some say it is, but then can't articulate why they are then targeting mosques. It seems like they were just waiting for the 'right' moment to cause the chaos

(hate having to refer to Southport as ;right' but obviously you know what i mean)

"Grow your own cat tax " Grin

Picture taken 7 years ago today Confused (I was needing to get more plants for the planter which I'd just cleared). Two weeks later he was knocked down and killed in a hit and run by a yob speeding at 60mph in a 30 zone at 8.30am outside a nursery Angry, where, unbeknownst to us he was a regular visitor he was a real tart Wink and much loved by the children and staff alike. Sad

Cat tax attached. (I wish things were different - threads going at a snail's pace and us all demanding a tax rebate!)

Yes - I think the likes of TR etc have definitely been waiting for something to use.

This shape is my cat, right now - the cheeky bugger marches up and literally steals, paw by paw any blanket off me and burrows into it.

I don’t I’ve ever met a cat person I didn’t like.

Cheery red sewing is my tax.

DS2 home already. Town full of raucous teens. His carer managed to divert him saying there had been an accident, as an ambulance went past. He's expressing his rage in his bedroom. DH needs to go to B&Q so rather than the one across town, he's he's going to one in a nearby town.

Spotted Krishnan Guru Murthy on Twitter challenging Elon Musk to a live interview, since he has so much to say for himself.

I’m sure I only paid my tax yesterday. Anyway, keeping my head down and restricting MN to here, 50 bookers, the cockroach cafe and the gardening threads. Oh and the Trump ones which seem to have a knowledgeable bunch on.

Cat tax - just making sure I’m safe from any wild animals outside my office!

thanks for the new thread.

@PickAChew did I see you’re in Durham? I’m not too far away and am almost glad at the lack of shops now as I went to Arnison rather than town for school shoes. Hope it comes to very little.

I did suggest a while back that MNHQ might look at a site tweak to show how many posts in a thread a poster had. It would have saved that extra click where you discover an OP with an "interesting" post and then no engagement.

In fact ...

Admittedly the lack of "see all" does help.

Possible tweak to site ? | Mumsnet

Why not show in a posts header how many posts there are by that particular poster in that particular thread ? e.g. Would be a quick way to see if OP...
