Pyewacket Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Hi there, we are a retired couple with no children and one (house-trained and very friendly) dog currently renting in the 82 and will soon need to look for new premises to rent. We are looking for 3 bed house with secure garden in the country for 12 months. We would like to find somewhere preferrably in the 82 ('cos we've made lots of lovely friends) but are more than happy to meet lots of more friends from the 47. Hope someone can help.[:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fay Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Hello Pyewacketcan't help with your request but I saw the name come up and had to show you MY Pyewacket - my avatar, here on the left. (She's a Devon Rex and has now grown into her ears a bit more.) Great name!Good luck with your search.Fay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperlola Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Sorry, Pyewacket, I can't help either but agreed, great name. I remember a band of that name - is this what made you think of it, perchance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyewacket Posted February 6, 2008 Author Share Posted February 6, 2008 Hi Fay, Wow, how CUTE is she!! Love her. Unfortunately ours died a couple of years ago...still miss him. When we are finally settled here with our own place we'll be on the hunt for our next beauty. Thanks for sharing.[:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyewacket Posted February 6, 2008 Author Share Posted February 6, 2008 Hi Cooperlola, the name came from an old film I watched several years ago.......Bell, Book and Candlestick starring James Stewart and Kim Novak and PYEWACKET her lovely black cat. Have always liked things witchy, mysterious and unusual Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fay Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Oh I am sorry that your Pye is no longer with us. Mine sends you a big purr.This is hijacking your post a bit Pyewacket, but since you're interested in such things, the name Pyewacket seems to stem from a wood engraving of Matthew Hopkins, the Witchfinder General, in which some poor old dear is naming her 'imps', one of whom is Pyewackett [with double t]. This convinced Hopkins she was a witch because names like that couldn't be thought of by any mortal!Pyewacket is/was also, as mentioned, a band, a restaurant in Boston, a racehorse, a children's book, and Roy (brother of Walt) Disney's yacht!And I love the film - found it on cheap dvd recently. Jack Lemmon is also excellent in it as Kim Novak's hep-cat warlock brother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pyewacket Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 Hi everyone,We are still looking for somewhere to rent for 12 months - if anyone can help we would be extremely grateful. I think we would be prepared to go even further afield if need be although still prefer dept's 82 and 47.[:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
