    Unless he comes to the rescue riding a bike please NO MORE CAT STORIES!
    Okay, some people find cats cute and adorable, others can take them or
    leave them, still others hate them. I come in to the middle category with
    tendencies to the last category when I read/hear the "aah, aren't they
    cute" nonsense. It's akin to the "new child" syndrome (of which I may have
    been guilty of to some extent) but without the benefit of having a "best
    before" date as everyone knows "cats are cute ALL their life".

    Hmmm... time for a coffee I think...

    Oh for heaven's sake Graeme... it was an error which I'd already posted an
    apology for. And you grumpy old so-and-so(grin) it's not exactly as if I do
    OT posts or make such errors a lot. Yes, you do need a coffee ;-)

    Cheers, helen s

    Your rantette was treated as it deserved to be. Now off with you and have a
    coffee ;-)

    Cats are agents of stan and should be exterminated.

    And, FWIW, over on the cat group there's a couple of us who cycle regulary
    and have managed to encourage others to take up cycling!

    Yes I had. Cats are still the agents of stan.

    Hitting the wrong key is forgivable -- cats are not.

    And well done on promoting cycling in uk.rec.agentsofstan. Presumably said
    agent rides in a wicker basket up front.

    :~)

    Yes really now. Unless the cat rode to the rescue on a Brompton this is
    a most inappropriate posting.

    Too right.

    I reckon the old biddy was lucky the cat only had one tooth. Isn't the
    usual procedure when some elderly cat lover falls over at home for the
    cat to start eating the owner?
