I don't think anyone's begun a new thread yet?

Hope you don't mind Cozie. Smile Newboy's Fairy God(cat)mothers love hearing about his progress.

A3 calendar - 8.25 plus post. Is that OK?*

M - pls can you send me the Mcat splits pic again, it isn't hi-res enough.

cozietoesie · 24/11/2017 14:57

OK by me. Smile

Lanaorana2 · 24/11/2017 15:10

Does anyone want any extra copies to annoy their loved ones with?

Specifically, delighting:

  • Dbro
  • Fluffy's MIL
  • Olli's neighbours (all of them) as a hint that she already has pets
cozietoesie · 24/11/2017 15:15

I'll need a few. Smile

Lanaorana2 · 24/11/2017 15:41

OK Let me see if I can get them even cheaper. Will 6 do or do you want 10??

Fluffycloudland77 · 24/11/2017 15:55

I only need one. As mil so succinctly put it "not everyone's as fascinated with him as you are".

Harsh.

cozie I don't think he likes your brother. Are you sure he's a nice family man? No unsolved murders your way? Grin

cozietoesie · 24/11/2017 15:59

It's a difficulty right enough. Grin

cozietoesie · 24/11/2017 16:01

PS - sounds as if she's 'in a huff', Fluffy. I think you need to give her one. Smile

Fluffycloudland77 · 24/11/2017 16:10

What did he do for that half an hour?

Lanaorana2 · 24/11/2017 18:09

I've got you down for one Fluffy, never fear. It looks like we can reorder at will, however, if MIL and SIL particularly....deserve a special 2018 gift.

Lanaorana2 · 24/11/2017 18:13

Oh God, people are coming out of the tube downstairs looking a bit stunned. Turned on telly and apparently mass panic - terrorist or otherwise - at Oxford Circus.

Lanaorana2 · 24/11/2017 19:47

C there's no more money off if you buy more than 5 wh is daylight robBery but they're not answering the phone so I cAN'T fiight any more.

cozietoesie · 24/11/2017 19:50

You don't need to, Lana. You've done nobly. Smile

RubbishMantra · 24/11/2017 21:18

Here we go for orders

Lana 1
Fluffy 1
M 3
C 5
Ollie 1 (yours is free! came up zero to pay when i used a code)

OK? C wd you prefer yours posted to you direct? Let me know as I can order the others as block of five adn then you can change the address on the account and get your five like that.

RubbishMantra · 24/11/2017 23:33

Fluffy, I'm getting one for my parents, and you know how awful they are! If MiL dislikes cats, that can only be a bonus? Lovely passive aggressive thoughtful gift! All they can do is accept gracefully. Tis for charidee after all! Grin

M we should have put a fake price on it eg £300 and a rather smart-sounding charity name...which was fake.. with a lot of committee member waives whose names we made up.

'Oh yes Mum I am awfl'y friendly with the Princess Halloumi you know.. dear Lady Hummus positively dotes on Little M' Grin

Lanaorana2 · 25/11/2017 11:27

Sign of the times - ALL my mates who are on committees like that have had members suddenly 'resign' after they or their DH featured in the paper, not on the party pages if you know what I mean. That wouldn't have happened in this country 30 years ago.

I've ordered and paid for the first lot, so with any luck we can get second orders sent direct.

Fluffycloudland77 · 25/11/2017 14:26

Awww my asbos a model. I'm a momanger now Grin

Lanaorana2 · 25/11/2017 17:01

Mistah Litter 2018. He is indeed.

How is N today

cozietoesie · 25/11/2017 19:19

Guess where he is? Grin

(20 minutes on the bed last night.)

Fluffycloudland77 · 25/11/2017 19:28

Flipping heck. Does he sit facing you?

Lanaorana2 · 25/11/2017 20:25

He's in LWT?

brilliant news about the bed.

cozietoesie · 25/11/2017 20:34

He sits facing me but he likes me to ignore him. Smile

(Yes - in the LWT. Grin)

Lanaorana2 · 25/11/2017 20:41

That is another Giant Step for Catkind.

I know about the ignoring, Mr C sometimes wants to do the same. Recent conversation:

Me: Hello my darling little bundle of love, my own life, I am back
Mr C: Wah?
Me: Yes, reduced chicken breast. Not yet, mummy's special pumpkin has to finish his supper
Mr C: Wah wah wah
Me: That isn't true. I fed you 10 min ago before I went to M&S.
Mr C: Wah!!*@@
Me: Jesus, that hurts.
(Sits down. Clattering in kitchen. Under breath: Oh hell he's kicked over the bowl)
Me; All right then you can sit on me, and I'll pretend you're not there as you say you hate me until I get the chicken out
