The wee buck (7) never seemed to be into arts and crafts, his sister got all the plaudits for that. But in lockdown he's showing me his drawings and they're pretty good.
TH is he freezes the TV on a particular character and does a still life of them. Clever 0 -

Stopped off at the garage from a few treats on the way home.
Went to the till with 3 ice creams,2 packets of spicy Thai onion rings and 2 bars of chocolate.
Assistant scans them and says "€2.50 please".
I say that can't be right.
Assistant scams them all again and comes to €2.50 again.
Then says that's what it says so 2.50 will do!
Ah well :pac:
:pac:

Listen to this.
I had already picked up to Milano pizzas in Tesco which were half price anyway making them 2.84 each.
When scanning them at the self service check out, there was a problem with one so the assistant had to run it through again.
Just checked while ago there and I was only charged 2.84 for both :pac:
So in total from both shops I got 2 pizza's,3 ice creams,2 Onion rings and 2 bars of chocolate for 5.34.
One of those days!
I suppose I should be buying all around me the way things are going :pac:0 -

Play the lotto now!!!! (I'm willing to split your winnings with you, 50/50
)
I never win anything like that.
I do the euromillions with a work colleague purely because they want to do it.
Doing it about 10 years and it's €7 a week.
About 5 times I've won a fiver.
I check online and the times I won the fiver it says congratulations you're a winner.
How am I a winner?
It cost €7.
I'm down €2! :pac:0 -

Same, but replace "paperwork" with "work" and "dog" with "cat".
My other happy for this morning, aside from Boards being back up and running again, is that one of the semi-stray, neglected cats I've been feeding has finally felt comfortable enough to mooch into my kitchen. She still hisses at me if I try to get too close, but she also meows (at least, that's what I'm "lip-reading" - I think she might be quite deaf and her meows are soundless.
) when she wants food and I'm not fast enough, and she keeps her tail high like a flag and slow blinks at me. I don't know what her name is, but I call her Lana. She's all black and has long, soft, shiny fur. She's quite small and I think she's quite young, too (and she's definitely feeding at least two kittens ) 0 -

He seems to instinctively know to meow at humans to get what you want but he didn't know how or what noise to make so he used to do silent meows! Now he meows but they always sound like kitten meows (he's 3 now!), really tiny little meows and still sometimes silent meows. He only manages a big meow if he's trapped someplace. So maybe your little one is the same, knows to meow but doesn't quite get it yet. Don't they say cats only meow for the sake of humans and they don't do it with each other?
They say it, but having had LOADS and LOADS of cats since I was 6 and having seen them interact, I don't think I agree.
Poor Oscar, though, sounds like he's had a very sad start in life. You might be right, though, Lana might be using ultrasound meows! I do think she has problems with her hearing, though, irrespective of her meowing skills. 0 -

I've never really thought about it much but I might start studying my cats Attenborough style and watch how they interact vocally with each other. Expect my findings a year from now.
