Whit Hellery Is Dis?

I wull tell you this, the noise! the stour! the Disruption! It was awful. Fpu swanned off to St Andies and Guardbridge, leaving m’Marmalade Chum and me to face the music. And the end result??? A huge draughty hole in the sitting room wall! Wtf was that about? And what is a sensitive feline to [...]

Rockin’!

M’Marmalade Chum has, for some time, been compurrlaining about having to use a cast-off patchwork quilt for parking his furry bahoukey on: he was most scathing about how it’s autumnal colour-scheme clashed with the delicately-hued cover on Ikea Poäng Rocker, his favourite sitting place. Whilst I have had Jill’s Lovely Crochet Blankie since the very [...]

A Moose Moment…

In a moment of Extreme Courage, fpu had a Good Rummage in the garage today and found the Black&Decker drill. After two years in bubblewrap, it was time to dust down Pig-Killing Club and mount it on the wall in CookieCutter Cott. Being extremely right-handed, she surmised that PKC’s’s handle would hang to the right, [...]

Marmers’ Extremely Busy Day

We have been havin’ some stremely jolly weather recently, which we’ve all bin enjoyin’ each in its own little way. Me, I’ve bin p’trollin’ the policies, showin’ my lovely fluffy tum to All&Sundry – Parcel Delivery Lady, Helen from Two-doors-up (though I think nuthin of that by way of a house name, do you? Eh??)

A Cautionary Tail…

Perils lurk in the Big Outside World of which a mere cat knows nothing. It’s bad enough slipping slinkily out of one’s own Catflap of Opporchancity into one’s own Rolling Ell of a morning to find BBC teacosied malevolently under our bush, and having to call for back-up, without the need to go Farther Afield [...]

Kitties’ Krismas

We had a very nice one and hope you did too. This is our Christmas Branch, which me’n’Marmers did find a tad disappointing, as it takes a lot less undecorating than a whole tree: all our feline friends will know what I mean, purrticularly that rowdy lot, 4catgang, who not only do the undecorating, but [...]

How I Lost My Ninth Liff

I’ve had a bit of an eventful day. Traumatic isn’t in it. Down to eight liffs in paw-to-paw Mortal Combat, and I’m not even sure who won. I’m so shaken I’ve spent most of the last 24 hours snuggled up with mpu under an ancient raggedy-edged patchwork quilt trying to forget the Horror, the Horror! [...]

Keeping Up With The Soaplady

Ever since I read that the Soaplady is the happy owner of not one but two Poångs, and then couldn’t keep my mouth shut and told the parental units, there has been a Yearning in CookieCutterCott for a Poång rocker. A few weeks ago, mpu made the treacherous and shark-infested journey over the Forth Road [...]

The Eh-to-Zee of Cookiecutter Cottage

So here we are and where are we? as Jeelie Piece’s staunchly ancient fpu would say. Wherever we are, it is now officially Home. Forget the ¡Toast! me and Marmers are now well into the whole loff and have made it our very own. We have many tasteful crocheted blankets on which to snooze and, [...]
