That it is.

Boo.

I think Monty Cat has yellow eyes from other exrtaordinarily cute pictures somewhere up the thread so cannot be Russian Blue?

Plots to aquire Monty Cat for her own. Mwa ha ha ha.

Then wonders about costs of pet insurance for a pure breed. :|

Claire, rebuild the pond, get a Turkish Van (cat).

I bought a wind jacket last year and was rather smug for the first few showers I got caught in as it held them off; in my mind, it was just a wind jacket so this feature was a bonus! It then was no longer shower proof but it still fulfils my primary requirement of it.

I thought that AndyP said his was no longer waterproof when I saw him at Muddy Hell, but don't quote me on that.

I think Regal has hit the nail on the head there. Mine goes in with all the normal laundry so gest fabric conditioned which, I think, most water resistant/ proof things aren't supposed to be exposed to.

Can anyone recommend somewhere in London to overhal an oldish pocket watch (possibly 1882-1934 based on case hallmark)? I know absolutely nothing about watches or horology so I'm not entirely sure why it's fallen on me to get it sorted out.

I doubt it is a particualrly remarkable piece, but it has a fair amount of sentimental value (apparnetly great grandmother's) so it would be nice to go to someone trusted.

Noooo. Placed order yesterday having checked for discount codes first. miser face

Ditch 'dancing' from it's name, then maybe we could lose the whole arm flinging hopscotch from the beginning and go straight to the gymnastics type bit?

Sorry to hear you're ill, and being rather inconvenienced this week!

Is it worth considering a dehumidifier? When we got our dehumidifier for the flat last year, I noticed a lot of them were reviewed by boat magazines. It made such a massive difference to our flat last year (the walls changed colour due to how much moisture was no longer in them) and, now that it's colder again, it's back in use to dry the laundry. If you don't already, is it worth 'airing the bed' for an hour or so, very grand mother-sh suggestion, but I guess houses used to have these issues.

Also for Duckie in future; maybe flea tablets that also treat ear mites? Higgs came from a micro pig farm and had ear mites which I think the vet missed initially. It was only when I noticed James was bothered by his ears (this reasoning doesn't sound logical, I know, but not the place to explain!) that we took them back to the vet and he gave them a different flea tablet that also kills ear mites. The ear mites lead to irritation that can cause scarring in the ear canal, which may lead to deafness.

How does it move, it's just a mass of fur with, seemingly, no legs. Magnets?

What *is *that?! It looks like a weird photoshop morph of a snow leopard type thing turned in to a seal.

I think Malaysian's on to something. Higgs' tail would be more than plenty in its current state. We're due to get a draft excluder soon, so she won't need to that job any more.

Double pulley system so it can 'lie' flat on the ceiling; people never look up!

Lovely bike btw.

Have an excellent day, Loic!

Farsports will do a rim with a custom drilling if you ask them to- and you can get the carbon rims in 28H, which as it is off the shelf is probably the easiest thing to do.

I'll take them for £531.

Ah, that's the TK2, this is the T2:

£240, still needs a fork but that's on budget.

This one?

£319, needs a fork.

Surely there should be a taker what with people wanting to lock up to go to the Rapha sale?!

I thought this thread was going to be cake versions of this:

Congratulations Mr & Mrs Sullivan!

Thank you for a brilliant weekend.

Ahhh, that explains it. Bit gutted, I was all ready to play quixote (using an 'o' on the board) over 2 double words scores 'n' everything.

I said you should have kept that rear wheel. Meh.

@dooks I am indeed 'real'. On the very odd occasion, I even make it to drinks.

I don't remember you being on the ropes but yes, rematch!

@Dooks: I'm fnamna, Dammit's other half - he said he'd been talking to you about it and pointed me to the thread? I'd guess he used the phrase 'bullying people' when referring to me playing scrabble because people keep resigning.
