Canonbury Cat

I chocked a chicken before.

i ran over a puppy with a quad bike once - it howled like it was dying, but it was totally fine thank goodness. farm dogs are tough little buggers though.

who hasn't choked a chicken once or twice in their lives well apart from the laydeeeez

Some ladies have cocked a chicken on my behalf. Only a select few though.

special friends ?

Beware of cats seeking revenge

I am about to ride home. I will be especially careful of cats, squirrels, dogs and badgers.

You careless crueltor. What about the foxes?

Not to mention the mice, rats, and shrews ...

Oliver. Try as I might, I've never managed to hit a wily old fox let alone a nippy young one. Mice rats and shrews tend to avoid roads during the hours of daylight.

Sounds like it could've been a catastrophe, not exacly a purr-fect day, hope you took a second to paws for thought after that happened.

Sorry, I thought there weren't enough puns here.

As you were.

I felix unnecessary tabby tom...

I killed a chicken once, and then ate it. Yummy, not raw tho it was cooked first.

Did it taste like squirrel?

I'm not biting.

I turned into my road this evening at the end of my journey home from work. A car was on my tail close behind. Suddenly a black and white cat sprang out from between two parked cars immediately in front of me. I was too close and the car behind too near for me to consider braking suddenly. I hoped it would avoid me. It didn't. I hit it and felt the bumps as first my front wheel and then my rear wheel ran over it. I slowed and allowed the car to pass. I half expected the car to stop but it didn't. I did a U-turn and looked in the road for a feline corpse or at least a trail of blood. There was none. Someone was sitting on a garden wall filling in a form on a clip board. I asked if he had seen a cat. He pointed to a brown one nearby. That was not the one. A young woman on the other side of the street then said that the black and white cat had dashed away as though it had had the mother of all frights. She pointed towards a garden. No blood. No sign of the cat. I rode the last few yards home and inspected my tyres and wheels. No sign of any damage.

St Paul's Road? Cat didn't make it I'm afraid. Sign stuck to one of the lampposts.

Canonbury cat RIP.

repost? (maybe) but it's totally irrelevant but on topic with cats AND bikes

I ran over my foot today pushing my car out of my garage (if I start it up inside there would be a smoke cloud lingering for a fortnight).

A few years back I ran over a badger. God it was gruesome and fucking horrible. The cunt broke my number plate.

I've knocked out in bed last night
I've had my fill, my share of looting
And now, the tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think, I killed a cat
And may I say, oh no, not their way
"But no, no, not me"
"I did it my way"

I'll go out tomorrow and have a look at the sign. Thanks Dom.

Now for the awkward one. Do I call the number and tell them what happened? What if it is another cat.

Reminds me of the old story:

"I'm frightfully sorry, I've run over your cat. I'd like to replace it."

"Can you catch mice?"

"I'm frightfully sorry, I've run over your cat. I'd like to replace it."

"Can you catch mice?"

This joke is in Mary Poppins. Fact thread maybe.

Billy Connelly also has a funny anecdote about a cat meets cars incident.

Neither do I..

But I think that's more to do with the fact that London is hardly "the bush".

Shepherds Bush is.

We went for a walk along St Paul's Road this morning and there was a sign placed by someone to the effect that a black and white cat killed in a traffic accident had been taken away by the council. Only oddity was that the date given was 24 June rather than 25 June. Either there was an error with the date or there has been a spate of black and white cats being killed in the vicinity. The sign was in the direction that the cat ran off in after I hit it.

My elder daughter is allergic to cats and so cannot have one. She does, however, love them and apparently has a favourite cat that lives in our road and which she talks to when she passes. She comes back from Glastonbury tomorrow. I hope "her" cat is not black and white.

watch your back clive, that's all I'm saying…
