Re: Leisurely Scribbles (part 5)
I see yis had a couple of pages on cats, I’m a week behind you know and am slow on the uptake, if you had a weak behind you’d know all about it.
My old Aunt Eileen was a cat lady, she had about six of them coming and going in and out of her little town house, they were huge, she was a spinster (I’m not sure if one can still say that now, don’t you think they should post out a booklet to folks over 70 to let them know what words they can and cannot say?, Christ knows they can send out enough political shit when there’s an election on) anyway she never married. She had a few bob and she’d buy the finest steak and fresh fish for them.
She lived on her own with the cats, a very independent woman was she, she made a packet over the years investing in stocks and shares, she worked all her live in a Solicitors office.
Anytime I went to visit her the cats would jump on my back from a dresser or the top of the high sofa, they would then sit and stare at me giving me the evil eye, out of the place I thought I’d never get. When she died she left all her money to the church, talk about apples into an orchard.
I’m more of a dog man myself, not really a catman, I don’t trust them, put it this way, if a cat and a dog were drowning and I could only save one of them I’d save the dog.
If a fella comes from Katmandu is he called a Katman? Was Heathcliff a Cathy man?
I believe Donald Trump owns a newspaper in India, the editor is a little skinny fella who sleeps on a bed of nails, the paper is called “Fakir News”
I know I know, eez terrible.

...and that's EXACTLY the reason he's actually in a PUB,yet drinking lemonade,Jem. Because he sees on a daily basis,the amount of damage overdoing the intake can cause...from arrests to divorces,from losing the home to losing a kidney,from severe injury to being called a prat on tv/the papers as drunken deeds are publicised...and he has the will,the stamina AND the loving of his woman to steady him,to power him up during the 'sweaty' times...and as his appetite for life,proper food,making love...and laughing at jokes that aren't about him steadily increases and returns,the boozed-up shenanigans of yesterday will become the food for stories that'll hold audiences spellbound-and leave himself proud to be him. GOOD man,that he is.
