Loving all the cat tax payments.

I'm still petless!

I am however off to collect my DS from work now - he's 20 today.
I'm no longer the mum to a teenager 🤪

Happy Birthday to DS 🎉

Happy birthday to your DS, @itsgettingweird !

DuncinToffee · 19/08/2024 21:30

Erm, I'm not sure that provides any legal protection whatsoever. But I guess if it makes them feel better...

Happy birthday to your DS Itsgettingweird 🎂

L1ttledrummergirl · 19/08/2024 21:50

I doubt any of those muppets are aware of how the law works.

Sorry for being late. The cat ate my homework.

I hope some lovely sweetpeas from my kitchen will make up for my cat refusing to come downstairs and be photographed.

Just catching up. Should I declare that I am generally a Labour voter, and have even been known to distribute the odd leaflet when I've been feeling particularly pro-Labour angry with the tories? I'm not pro enough to ever actually join the party or anything like that.

Following. Tax from the mighty George inspecting the base for the new shed

Perhaps all the rioters should have tried something similar.

I've not posted on one of these threads before so 2 lots of cat tax. Orange cat is my Ivy; telling me she needs feeding. The other is DS's cat, Tom, showing off his lovely toe beans. He was formerly feral so is coming along nicely.

Cat tax. Ignoring me, which is often.

I’vs enjoyed politics being dull recently. All relative of course but what you have to remember the knives are out behind the scenes.

Conference season beckons and Labour must impress, the Conservative candidates are all digging dirt on each other, and riots quelled, it’s back to the usual silly season of giant spiders becoming resident in the UK and foreign hornets eating children…

I feel like I should do the same 🙂. Good morning my name is cheguevarahamster and I am a Labour member (and I really like Keir Starmer.)

I saw this on the hellsite ( I am trying not to go on there). This statement is truly bizarre and offers no defence.

Hi,
What is this thread about?
I can't tell from the title, the 30 or so posts I've read so far, or the pictures of cats.

Is this an in-joke or can anybody join?

Politics, mainly. All welcome!

Even if you haven't got a cat! I paid my cat tax with an alpaca phew! (Not mine I hasten to add...)

Politics and cats. What else is there in life?

It's a nice group though. We don't like people who come in to stir things up. So feel free to disagree but do it nicely.

Sourdough crumpets. Just sayin'. 😅
