I will, but sometimes I wish cats weren't so bloody persnickety.

When they're happy to eat raw dead bird, it does seem a bit much that they turn their noses up at cat food.

I couldn't find a suitable bag of Rooster potatoes today. What a traumatic disaster!

Are they the fun red ones?
I like funny coloured vegetables.

Yes, but I suspect it's a gimmick as I don't think they taste any different.

The BCG site took ages to load yesterday evening. Finally I gave up and had to try to kill my time by doing something active...like talking to real live people. Urgh. I thought we got over this phase of evolution.
I hope some heads are gonna roll in the BCG office because of this.

I sometimes feel like a proud father when they bring me a dead bird. Then I shout at them.

Do you think I could gather up dead pigeons and sell them as petfood?

Ok first world problem, the tube was really crowded this morning so I had to wait for 10 minutes at Kingscross. And Virgin wouldnt let me sign on to Wifi.

How did I cope?

Don't ask because I don't know.

No, they never bother eating much of the pigeon. They crunch up an eyeball and chew on the inards a bit, but mostly they're just doing it to show off and leave most of the corpse uneaten.

There is not that much to eat on a pigeon - they probably just have the breast meat, fricasseed most likely with fava beans and a nice chianti.

I got passed over for a script writing job; about an undercover robot whose actually a lesbian.

Passed over for a woman from Pakistan.

I do not believe Pakistan has either lesbians or robots.

It's gynocentrism gone mad I tells ya!

Aren't you always going to get hopelessly underbid when competing with a country where the average monthly income is about £100?

Pakistani Lesbian script writers are at a premium and earn a lot more than that Lazzard.

Simone Gupta the creator of the smash hit sitcom 'Why does he kick my dog and call me f**k off' is on millions per week.

I just saw a really stupid writing question about interview technique on another forum.

And had just finished a masteful windup post about being interviewed by zombie pirates.

When the whole thread was wiped just as I was about to upload it,

The price of Fox's Chocolatey Shortcake Rounds in Waitrose !

If I sent £2 a month to Africa and they spent it on these, they would only get 2p change !

well it would be rather rude of them to eat up the present they caught for you. Then of course, it would be utterly rude of you not to wolf it down gratefully...

Pernickety, please, unless you're an American.

Third-world cats aren't fussy. Neither are cats in China, which is now deemed second-world by some.
