Just make it April Fools Day

Ah yes, the Dyce bus. I had to get that once or twice when the trains weren't running. I agree with your comment about punching everyone on board. Its almost like a safari tour around the less salubrious parts of town.

Pet Hate: The fact Stagecoach buses make me feel like I'm going to spew, yet First buses don't. Do I get the free bus which makes me want to boke, or pay an extra £1.60 a day for a return on the non-bokey bus.

On the topic of operations for animals, this reminds me I need to get insurance for my animals that're not allowed to be mentioned in any thread, except one which has the animal name in the title.

I'm not in our office any more, I got subcontracted into an Operators office. Its lush. £1.90 for a Brie and Roasted Veg Panini and a Vat of home made barley soup. Yet the Starbucks charges £2.20 for a latte.

I get a latte at work, but thats only because the machine does lattes, espressos or cappuccinos. Drinking it I think the foam is a bit much, as all I want is a nice tasting cup of brown.

I wouldn't really want a cappuccino or latte at home. I just want a Vat of white coffee that I can dunk tons of biscuits into. A funcy coffee is for enjoyment out in town.

Privacy of your own shower, fine. But not in a public place - have some consideration for the people that have to use the shower after you.

I wish, it was a proper nose blow. A proper honk. Followed by a hacking up of flem, and spitting it out. Ick.

I once stabbed an assistant at a youth camp with a sewing needle when I was about 5 or 6, just for fun. She ended up having an affair with the Chief Constable about 15 years ago. I'd like to think I had my part in that. My dad was less than pleased when he heard about it, the stabbing not the affair, he hit me with a dictionary. Which caused my gran not to speak to him for a month.

on a non-poo related note, scampi is an awesome name for a cat. We end up referring to our two by any duo names. Fats and small, Pinky and Perky. Occasionally they get Adolf and Ava if they have been a right pair of nightmares.

People blowing their nose in the shower. Its minging. At the gym, and hearing the noise coming from one of the showers. ick

Jake, She is probably going back to that spot as you might not have got rid of the smell of poo - so they go back to where they know to poo (i.e. where the smell is). We got some stuff from Pets at Home, its the kitten stuff and it has a smell additive to make them go to it. Once or twice they have pooed outside it, but still in the vicinity of it - I think just because we hadn't cleaned it enough. Failing that it might be worth putting it in a room with a door, and closing her in it overnight? just to see if she uses it during the night. If she uses it once, then she will start going back to it (one would assume). /edit - it also might be worth taking the lid off (if possible?) as she might not be comfortable inside it. We bought our two a hooded cat bed with a pillow. They wouldn't go near the thing, put them in it, and their claws and legs would go out to try and hang on to an edge to get out. But we took the pillow out, and put their cat blanket it, and they got used to the smells of it, and going in it. Now one of them sleeps in it.

Might I recommend the whiskey shop on Union Street, he helped me out when I was buying my dads whiskey Christmas present. Plus he is pretty liberal with the free tastings!

Going to Aviemore to stay in a lodge over the weekend, with the wife and friends and girlfriends. Could really do with a weekend at home doing nothing, oh the 1st world problems.

I used to buy the Record every day and do the crossword when I was in lectures. Except on a Tuesday - I hated the puzzle pullout, I don't want a huge crossword. Thats not sly. I sometimes buy a copy of the Times in a morning to break a tenner or a fiver, as my bus doesn't give change.

I must have missed this transition. I will tell her indoors to be more a more courteous driver.

BMW drivers are worse, scratch that - doddery old Nissan Micra drivers.

I have those alloys on the A4, and my wife curbed them within a week of owning the car. She used the excuse of "the wheels aren't suitable for driving". No, sorry love just do what I do and park miles from the curb and get a taxi to the pavement.

She is half bengal, half british shorthair. Its not a cast, it was a bandage. They had to put an IV in her leg because she needed extra fluids. When we got her home yesterday, they left the line in just in case she didn't drink anything or eat anything. But she had a cheeky nibble on some sensitive cat food. So we took her back this morning, and the IV was taken out and she has just a wee bandage covering the site of the IV. So glad to have her back

She is on the mend!

I always kept my work shoes under my desk, and walked to work in trainers. Sod 2 mile roundtrips in no sole work shoes.

Cat-update She is getting better, the vets are holding on to her to try and feed her to see if she sicks it back up. I hope not, it was weird only having one cat around last night and this morning. Plus he was going into each room meowing trying to find her. Update on him, he had a cheeky nibble of some sensitive catfood this morning, and I think he kept it down. Didn't think I would get this attached to them, happily (to an extent) cleaning up their poo and spew.

The poor little Kitty has to stay with the vet overnight She has to be put on a drip. Her temperature is returning back to normal, but because she is only 2.5 kilos and hasn't eaten for two days they want to keep her overnight. I want my cat back The other one is moping around the flat crying out for her. He is also being sick, but he could stand to lose a little weight. He is a fat-cat.
