A true NIMBY then.

Pixiedust1234 · 23/09/2024 19:46

Sorry if that came across as snippy. Please accept this cat as my full apology (this is a king sized bed btw and she's 2/3 across without stretching 🙀).

Usually when I see a stretched-out cat (looking at you, Shady) I make a remark along the line of being like Inspector Gadget, but I am wondering if here I can get away with what I really want to say.....cat is all stretched out like Twizzle...(waits as tumbleweed rolls past)

These two have been separated for a week, cat is currently stalking the poor dog and spent most of her day goading him and jumping on his head 😂

Pud - never heard of it but my ears twitched over the name Twizzle. Turns out that unfortunately it wasn't the cat 😕

Shally - my goodness, your cats face! I see "wotcha gonna do about it huh?!?"

Sadly no, though I have heard of it...Fireball XL5 was another blast from the past though it is now on Talking Pictures TV ..

Don't forget Stingray!

@Pudmyboy glad someone else remembers Fireball XL5 - though I think I was a tiny bit young for it, I had to watch it so my mother had a good excuse 😂

She also used me and @Anniegetyourgun as an excuse when buying comic books. I don't mean things like Bunty, I mean Marvel, DC, 2000AD. I think Judge Dread was just about her all time fave, but she was also well into Fantastic 4, Silver Surfer, and a few of the much lesser known characters like Strontium Dog (don't ask!). Annie may remember a few more of mother's favorites...

<waves hello to all newcomers and their kitties>

here are my two... 18 year old sisters, don't like each other that much to be honest but mostly live peacefully together. Interestingly, when we had our old boy (unrelated), they both loved him so perhaps it's an overfamiliarilty thing?

I posted these on the disdainful expressions thread, they are usually not this grumpy looking Smile

Mine too! Though I used to pretend I fancied Captain Blue because I didn't want him to know (I was very young!)

Troy Tempest was another of my childhood heroes.

I hoped to marry him.
