I did it, I got a photo of Penny! In her defence though, she suffered a trauma 2 years ago. We came home to find her on the doorstep with her face all bloodied and her lower jaw dislocated. Some fúck did something to her and we don't know who/what but she went through an awful time with that and surgeries. She absolutely despises humans but unlike most cats, she unfortunately has good reason to.

Does she accept your family?

I took in a stray that wanted so badly to be loved, she'd come looking for cuddles and then attack you as soon as you touched her. She was funnily more accepting of men in general she'd not look at them with murder in her eyes.

I reopened the thread so you can post a request now. Or just PM skeith as he is the game mod.

Well visually it's no treat I can tell you. Had the bits in it and everything.

Far prettier than my madly overgrown garden. Enjoy Necro.

Looks fab. I was there for a night a long long time ago and that’s all I remember. Must go back.

Wait, was Necro's choice S Cork or your garden?

Aye, as tempting as the offer was to hand the young lads some machetes and do some honest work whilst on holidays I decided the beach was better :pac:

Baggly

Its just as well Ecto - he would only pretend to sort your garden and start playing WW on the sly instead

How many peoples OHs are on boards?

Baggly

God no

Not mine. He thinks I’m a weirdo talking to you lot. Doesn’t get it at all.

quickbeam

What OH?

Necro

Oh my wife isn't on boards either but she can recognise the site when I'm looking on the phone.

Whereas with other ones she has to ask if she looks to which I respond:

'Nothing dear just some hardcore pornography!'

Trust me it would be better caught looking at that than caught playing WW on holidays :pac:

tusk

I wish, then I could get her involved in my ww addiction. She couldn't get mad then...

fixXxer

I sent my wife the stephen king to get a feel for what the game is but she's not interested

Necro

This is our holiday home btw (excuse the thumb, I'm slightly inebriated)



Been in the family almost 100 years at this point

It's glorious used to it at this stage coming here since I was a baby.

Up until about 6 years ago there wasnt a shower and the toilet was outside too :pac:

Ah Mr Molly tried but he's too damn conscientious and won't play during work hours so he's always behind and found it too hectic. We met on a message board though. Good old Oxegen was good for something!

Sorry about the delay here Clarabel.

Penny wasn't actually a stray, although I understand how my wording might have implied that she was. No...I had to do a round-trip to Limerick to collect her when she was kitten. 'The things we do for love' and all of that jazz.

I take it from your use of the past tense that you don't have your stray cat anymore?

sullivlo

The doggo is here again. She's currently sitting at my feet. I just love her.

fixXxer

Aw give her all the rubs

Necro

Sister's cat does NOT like company :pac:

Necro

And up close. I'm crying laughing at the expression!! Although that might be the excessive sun and copious alcohol (I swear I'm a good parent :P )

ShauntaMetzel

I love the innocence on their faces. Sweet kids.

Necro

They are bloody gorgeous

Me too, but there's windows and I can see the sunshine outside! :cool:

I've no interest in sitting here in front of a laptop when the sun is shining.

Is the ginger your cat? She/he is stunning. I'm also lolling hard at your sisters cat.

Necro

The chances of me ever working from home in my current role are somewhere between none and no chance in hell

I'd love to do it at some point though

Nah both are hers I think. She actually works from home in Canada and runs a cat sitting business part time which earns more than her actual job at the mo :eek:

Crazy Canucks and their pets :pac:

I'm marking scripts at the minute so glued to the computer screen. I'm ahead of my deadline so going to take the morning off tomorrow and go do the food shop (woo hoo :rolleyes: ) and maybe go for a walk with my friend.

Then back at it. Next deadline is Wednesday so I can take my foot off the gas a bit hopefully.

sullivlo

My neighbour has Indian lodgers and they make delicious food and they're making something now and I can smell it because the back door is open and now I'm hungry.

Necro

Currently on a ferry bound for Spike Island, looking forward to the tour

sullivlo

Its so good!
