Next door's cat is a thug and completely dominates DDog (who is a bit of a wuss, to be fair). DDog has even stopped barking at the cat, because she is so demoralised about the whole situation.

The cats near my Mum's house, OTOH, do run away, and DDog gets very excited when we go there...

Some cats just don't understand the correct order of the universe, @wildernesssw

Can someone explain this thread please.

Most of the posts on the last few pages have been provided specifically to cheer me up and make me laugh.

DrasticAction · 06/02/2024 21:15

@upinaballoon 💐bless you you must need that.

However what's the thread about please?

wildernesssw · 06/02/2024 21:20

It started off discussing Omid Scobie's book, Endgame - several 1,000 posts ago!

Mylovelygreendress · 06/02/2024 21:28

Has anyone actually read it ?
I noticed a copy in our local library - yet to be borrowed !!

DrasticAction · 06/02/2024 21:29

Oh!! OK, got it thank you.

I have after a wait of 0 in the local library and it looked pretty untouched when I got it.

It did descend into a bit of a poor me in places esp. at the...um... end (arf) but on the whole not entirely the dross I'd expected.

Interestingly I wasn't able to renew it due to another hold ( I wanted to return it with the next book I borrowed. Just colour me lazy)

I guess the best that can be said is it's slowly doing the rounds...

Do you mean Endgame or Spare? If Endgame, why does it descend on to a poor me? What’s Scobie complaining about?

The same was said of crabs, various camps. Cyprus. 90s.

I’m certain Endgame was more warmly received.

“In response to being asked why every royal story ends up being about H&M, I said something about OS making it about them, when he claims to be a neutral reporter. “

I don’t know why your post was deleted either, but if you check back you’ll find the two posts of mine, that you seem to be referring to here, did not ask you ‘why every royal story ends up about being about H&M’? My posts were statements not questions. Nearly every royal story does end up being about H&M. On here, and in the media.

I won’t be coming back to this thread. If you weren’t referring to my 2 posts then no harm done. The only time I ask questions on here is when I really want to know something. I already know why in this case. I certainly don’t post demanding answers from anyone.

The question that millions are waiting to hear answered:

Was cheese consumed with the wine? If not, why not? If so, was it Wensleydale?

We have a right to answers 😡

jeffgoldblum · 06/02/2024 23:40

Well !!!! @ArcaneWireless has spoiled me with the giffs so an answer is needed!!!
Double Gloucester was eaten! No crackers !!!! And I may have accidentally eaten a packet of frazzles accidentally of course!!!

ArcaneWireless · 06/02/2024 23:42

I only have extra creamy Brie in. And that is to put in Mary Berry’s chicken tartiflette tomorrow.

So I’ve had chocolate and a wee cup of Baileys.

Need a cheese shop.

jeffgoldblum · 06/02/2024 23:45

Ahh well baileys is cream so counts as your dairy allowance! And Brie is really fancy cheese spread so you're definitely off the hook as far as I can tell !
