Cat owners!


Why bother going to the hassle of getting a kitten from Celia Hammond and have all the expense of neutering/vets bills/ food etc.


Just repeatedly smash the kitchen drawer onto your broken, mangled fingers until they are utterly useless - this exhibits the the same level of idiocy as owning a cat but without the hassle

Dont bother deluding yourselves that cats are actually clean animals and bury their fetis shite any longer. Everytime sooty does a #2 in your garden , just stick it into one of my supplied freepost envelopes and send it to me. Then I can apply the shite directly into my childrens eyes with a rusty fork, thus avoiding the hassle of letting sooty out and worrying when he doesnt come back within 40 minutes and then having to post endless bleaty teary eyed dirges in the lost and found section of the EDF

you can do your bit in helping us rid the planet of those awful fish that clog up our seas. Just ensure you buy kittykins expensive food based on those annyoing endangered species like Tuna - Im sure with a bit of effort, you can help to ensure our marine environment is a dead lifeless sewer in no time at all.

Just occasionally I wish there was a like button against posts.

Expect I'll regret sounding supportive, but several of the neighbourhood cats that use my garden for this purpose certainly don't bother to bury them. And I recently had to clean the doorstep I share with my neighbour after a few local kids picked some up on their shoes and then got it everywhere, which was stomach-churning.


Cats are teachable (an ex-BF's cat learned to use the shower plughole when she was caught short). If you must have a cat, teach it to crap in your own garden or a litter tray.

Because tying a bit of old rag to a length of fishing line, tying that to a long bamboo cane and then flicking it around the room in circles while you sit in comfort on the sofa will not have a real friend skidding along the floor, or bouncing off doors/walls, or leaping head-first into a skirting board.


And putting a cereal box on a friend's head will not have them backing away in a circle in a hilarious fashion.


And substituting a cereal box with a yoghurt pot will not have a friend distorting his face and sticking out his tongue to a painful, yet ultimately frustratingly ineffective, degree in an effort to remove the traces of yoghurt which have begun to attract flies.


Nor will switching the hoover on and off have a friend jump three feet vertically in the air with shock.


Cats.


You gotta laugh.

now that's just plain irresponsible of a parent! tut tut

Cat lovers!


A little know fact - despite having a peanut sized brain and an inherent inability to come to terms with everyday things things like cars and roads, they are actually VERY INTELLIGENT and they can actually understand you when you speak to them. yes, really.

Cat lovers!


Lost for something to do ? at a loose end ? then why not feed and pay attention to any old scraggy mog that passes your doorstep. Thus ensuring you will have plenty of time to post pictures of it and enter in mindless chat with other cat lovers in the unceasing vortex of pain that is the cat lost and found section of the EDF.

Cat Owners!


Apply in advance for a court order to forcibly enter the sheds of everyone in the area to look for fluffy when goes goes missing for 3 hours . This will save the tiresome process of posting on the EDF with futile requests for EVERYONE IN LONDON to check their sheds for fluffykins.

Is he an ex because of his cat's habits in the shower?

    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
    • This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.  
    • Nothing to do with the topic of this thread, but I have to say, I think it is quite untrue that people don't make human contact in cities. Just locally, there are street parties, road WhatsApp groups, one street I know near here hires a coach and everyone in the street goes to the seaside every year! There are lots of neighbourhood groups on Facebook, where people look out for each other and help each other. In my experience people chat to strangers on public transport, in shops, waiting in queues etc. To the best of my knowledge the forum does not need donations to keep it going. It contains paid ads, which hopefully helps Joe,  the very excellent admin,  to keep it up and running. And as for a house being broken into, that could happen anywhere. I knew a village in Devon where a whole row of houses was burgled one night in the eighties. Sorry to continue the off topic conversation when the poor OP was just trying to find out who was open for lunch on Christmas Day!
