    Here is the tale. I came to work this morning and there was a dead cat on the side of the road. At lunchtime someone had moved it to the pavement, presumably so they could park the car. I just went out for a cigarette (yes one of my horrible habits) and it had gone. Either the Lazerus Virus has hit it, or the council sent round the Dead Cat Wagon. (I suppose somebody could have put it in a bin). Some poor soul will be sticking the Whiskers in a bowl and wondering where Tiddles is later, not knowing that Tiddles is no more!

    I did warn everyone here - I took my first driving lesson on Monday. It isn't my fault the cat can't read CP

      Silly Henry. If a car had tried to knock down tigress, it'd be the car lying on its back in the middle of the road.

              I found out that one of my cats got caught in my office all night. No wonder I felt more rested this morning.

                That is awesome. I sent the picture to a friend who has five cats and for some reason he didn't see the humor in it.

                  I got severely reprimanded for posting that photo on another forum. Most thought it was funny but the moderator was a cat lover! :doh:

                    Around here on my journey to and from work I normally see a dead badger or two every day, in varying locations across a 20 mile stretch. Either there's a lot of badgers around here or they like to wonder during the day sleep dangerously! :)

                          Have you ever smelled a dead badger? I once fell down a cliff and landed in a dead badger (long, amusing story, retold often over drinks) and had to throw my clothes and shoes away - the stench was incredible. (it was, I think, dead a few days). This is not an isolated 'stinky' badger - I was telling the story to a devonshire lad years later (having just got to the 'unbelievable stench' part, but before the 'dead badger' part, when he interrupted - "Sounds like a dead badger!". Now I immediately suspected collusion of others to whom the story was familiar - but am reasonably convinced as to his veracity - he had encountered dead badgers in the hedges near his home.

                              Sounds nice enough, but I'd rather move to an area where you frequently see dead marketing and presales people.
