Thats so funny ...more than you think ....While trying to teach Tigger to walk to the lead and I was stood there with him half up a tree and I looked like some one flying a kite .... My hubby said just that to me .....He would not make a good guide cat for the blind would he ?

I was told the same thing on my bumf for the last two hospital visits but I took my phone and Ipod any how , and they were fine . I put them inside my shoes when I changed into my bed wear and put clean socks stuffed inside the shoes ...Then put the shoes at the bottom of my bag
Trouble is you never know who is a thieve could be a porter a nurse or a doctor as it could be a shop keeper or a fruit picker .... So I think this is written to cover them selves and to stop you claiming if some thing is taken.
I would just check your house insurance covers your items out side of the house

Moriatv..... I was thinking about this yesterday as we had some thing simular given to us while we waited for our food in a resturant last summer on a very hot day , it was more like a frozen gazpacio (sp?) and so so tasty i may have to experiment . I think it will need a lot of reducing to make an intense flavour

That happened to me over christmas for about 3 weeks , no matter if it was a reply , a PM or me starting a post ,as soon as I posted it , it dissappeared and asked me to write something !!

Those of you who know me know I took on a 4 year old ginger tom a year and half ago.
He had not had a happy home life and it took me a while to get him to trust me and my husband , He spent the first 3 weeks sat on the landing window ledge glaring at us because we wouldnt let him out , He soon took to the dog , who is a real softy but would only play with her on the landing , not down stairs . I tried really hard plying with loads of great food , brought toys and nice cosy bed and tunnel to hide in when he wanted to be alone ...and plenty of gentle hugs ear rubbing and strokes. When the Day came for us to let him out for the first time we were scared he wouldnt return , we let him out at 10am and by 6pm after not seeing him all day I cried with the worry thinking he would be lost or run over or just didnt want to come back to us . Finally he turned up at 8pm and for the first time rubbed him self against my leg asking for some tea .....I cried again with relief .....
After a few months he still wouldnt come and sit in the living room with us in the evenings preferring to sit on the landing or in the dogs bed in the kitchen , then it was time of year to light the fire , he showed some interest in it and soon came to sit in the room with us but not on our laps ... I started a game with him as he was always on the landing where I would pretend to sneak up the stairs wiggling my fingers through the rails and making funny noises just peeking my eyes over the top and bobbing back down , he loved this bum in the air , tail waggling , eyes on stalks , he would pounce on my fingers and kill them ..... then I would lay on the floor on the landing and pretend to be asleep he would come over and snuggle a little ....I knew I was making progress...
Imagine my surprise one evening , Id gone to bed early was watching telly with the lights out , and I felt him jump up on the bed he came high up on my cheast almost nose to nose he fell asleep on me ....I was so chuffed , then in his sleep his little paw reached out and touched the side of my face , it broke my heat and i just wanted to hug him so tight but was to scared to wake him....
Imagine my joy when I took this ....photo [IMG]http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z22/pads_03/IMG_5600.jpg[/IMG] (feel free to nose at the rest of my pic's plenty more of him and other things) Hubby was so proud it was the first time he had fallen asleep on him
He is now a very loving cat and adores hubby and the dog but has some very strange habits , one while asleep in his bed his tail waves around in his sleep like a seperate animal or a charmed snake .
Some times he storms into the house looking fuming , boxes the poor dogs face and moves her off her bed so he can have it .or will storm up to me or hubby and bite us really hard for no reason. where every he can reach leg hand face . He also empties all his biscuits out of the bowl with his paw on to the floor then comes asking for more food to be put in his bowl ... He wont have his window shut , if you do he stands either side of it asking to be let in or out even if he has just come in or out already ... Suddenly for no reason other than to scare the wits out of me ...he will scream really loudly then stare at me as if to say do some thing ...not sure wot ?
He likes to follow me and the dog on our walks , but it made me so nervous on the road that I decided to try and teach him to walk on the lead ...he took to it like a duck to water ..which was useful for his first trip to france with me last year . as I could walk them both at service stations and could walk him around our area in France for a few days to be sure he knew where home was and its been perfect. he comes for trips out in the car and sits at the table outside cafe's as f he has always done it .
It took him a year to bring me his first mouse ...now they are none stop. Im sure he loves us now but it took time.
Some times he sits and looks so sad and stares into space , I wish I knew why ....so I could tell him he is safe now and we will always love him.
Never known one like him but wouldnt be with out him now , So if any one is thinking about adopting a older cat please do they come with odd behavoiur but are so so worth it ...I hope I have brought some joy into his little life ...

After losing my last computer thanks to the electric board blowing my house up ....long stoy for another day
Im now restarting from the beginning the whole coarse again. I was on level 4 do you know how many hours of my time it took to get there sob sob
Any how fellow users when your doing the speaking exercises do you find that you practically have to minmick the talker ( in a way I would find a little rude if I was talking to a real person.) so if its a man you put on a gruffer voice and different women to have to take on the pitch as well ...or is it just me ? when in france I can say bonjour in my normal voice everyone understands me , on here it wont except it unless I copy the tone as well . After saying bonjour 6 times I also find my self getting louder ( oh lord please dont let me do that in real life I hate it when I hear others doing it )
I find it quiet disheartning when it rejects things I think I say really well , then after getting some I hear as wrong it will except it ...
Although I have to say its a great coarse and can keep me entertained for hours ....
Anyone any thoughts on it ?
