Happy Sigh Bluddy 'phone went abit wappy this afternoon so have been sorting that out (!) A combination of 'phonecalls /messages didn’t get through, & the Internetty appeared to have been broken for a while. It appears to be ok now… Earlier, I ended up in tears in Tiny Tesco. I had gorn to fetch Supplies, & picked up a couple of bunches of reduced price roses/spray carnations to rescue along with said Supplies. I was chatting to another older woman customer about various things, & how pretty they would be when I had given them some attention, & mentioned that it was my Birthday today. I finished my shopping, went to pay, & she was in the queue behind me. She leaned forward & told the assistant to put them on her bill, because she had enjoyed our chat. Me Bluddy mask was wet through with tears, & then it Hissed it down all the way home. Liberates Pitcher Proffers Pitchers Carinthia. xx ---

I think I’m too atypical to help here, given that you yourself have explained this to me before, elsethread. I had no idea before then though, if that helps at all. ---

It is indeed the wool-winder, designed to unkitten snarls in the yarn. I just wondered whether people who hadn’t already been told that would guess it in a month of Sundays. ---

This is an enquiry for Twellies. We have noticed that That Cat really prefers water from the flower-saucers out on the stoep, and not water from the tap, and have come up with a working hypothesis: she dislikes the taste of the chemicals in the tap-water. I don’t know whether you have a chlorinated (or otherwise chemically treated) water supply as well as the wells, but if you do, are the leopards similarly fussy about drinking only un-treated water? ---

Hmmm No cats here, but an very interesting question, Fishy. So many moons ago (when I was young & charming. Pace G&S), we had German friends to stay at the caravan. They brought their dog For 2 weeks… Anyhoo I had an water container wivvan tap onnit. It was left outside & used to rinse hands whilst cooking/doing other jobs. I used to put water-sterilising tablets innit to stop any bugs. Anyhoo The dog wasn’t happy, & not drinking. We/they couldn’t understand why, until I realised that the lady had been giving the dog water from the container rsther than walking 20 yards to the ‘standpipe’ tap for fresh water. BiL, & friend’s cats wouldn’t drink water in the houses either, only outside. Carinthia. xx ---

Poodle thoroughly disliked the tapwater in our previous hive. She’d cope happily with muddy puddle water and also our filtered stuff that had stood overnight. I am certain that our tapwater was over-chlorinated.
