I realize I feel terrible. I realize that’s coloring how I post. So if you wanna just pass this on by without reading it, I won’t be offended, but I do have a gripe. I’m trying not to be affected by these commercials for animals that are out in the cold where they show me animals being snowed on or animals out in the heat with flies, crawling all over them And I wonder did I need to see that or did they need to just rescue those animals and tell me what kind of conditions they were found in because it’s just disgusting that they were used in a guilt campaign because what else is it? I know I’m supposed to send money because it’s the holiday and my plate is full and I’m surrounded by love and happiness and family and food and these poor animals don’t know where their next meal is coming from. I’ve been in rescue a long time. Sympathy adoptions don’t last. Let him throw a blanket over the cold ones let them shoo the flies and rescue the ones that are out in the heat, but I don’t need to see it before they do. Some of the ones I rescued were in homes and being treated pretty badly one cat in particular. OK, that’s it. I feel better.

If you could solve any unsolved mystery what would you want to solve?
Goodly moaning, fellow Gutter dwellers. I greet you well.
I really did my best to get on here yesterday, but I found my domestic duties taking precedence, due to Her Indoors somehow coming by a detached patella.
She struggled through Christmas Day and Boxing Day with it (I am recommending a Victoria Cross), believing it to be a common or garden bursitis.
Not so. It being impractical at this time of year to get a doctor's appointment, I took her to A&E - which was filled to the gunnels with 'flu-stricken foreigners (as I suppose, from their heavily tanned appearance).
It took some time for Her Indoors to be seen, and the detached kneecap diagnosed.
I always thought detached kneecaps were dealt with more or less on the spot, but Her Indoorses insistence on doing everything short of running a marathon over Christmas has caused a lot of swelling, which must be reduced first. I have to take her back in a couple of hours to have the patella put back in place.
Nothing serious, then, just more aggravating,...
Lights Out
