Well if Pit bills other post is anything to go by we'll still be 250 years short of anything. This meteor you speak of, is it a one of those end of the world scenarios and is there any way we could organize it so it hits by the the time I am supposed to start paying back my student loans??

I admire a guy who has his priorities well and truly worked out, Syme. :-{E}

Hmm....apparently not, if you are still watching Frank. (;o)

I think Frank is shagged out after his mini-riot earlier. Cage got cleaned, he had a bit to eat, contemplated the slightly new arrangement to his binky(cat's hate change,y'know), then passed out.

Yes. I have absolutely positively nothing to do at work today, and even worse have had to cover the Asst Honcho's phone all afternoon so do not even have the comfort of my own desk where I can at least pretend to work. The last 10min have felt like 10yrs. Another 20min to go. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!

...if only I had a cyber stick to poke Frank with so he'd get up and move around....

19min to go.....

Opinions please.

I`m trying to think of a name for my little vintage bear enterprise. I`ve come up with a name which I think is quite clever.....

... Bear R`s Chic ....what do you think?

Sort of a take off of the Toys R Us thing. Plus the fact that when it is said quickly it becomes bare arsed cheek, and, of course, many of the bears are rather threadbear (unintentional pun there).

I've been running a vintage bear enterprise for the last 8 years called exactly that, Gal. Sorry.

Ony joking. I like it, so go for it. Not that that's much of a recommendation, mind. :-{E}

Toys R Us will probably take you to court claiming copyright on the capital "R"!!

But you'd probably stand more chance with the green welly crowd with plain old 'Bear Faced Chic'. :-{E}

I think you're all missing the point:

"this meteor due to hit earth in 2280 or whatever"

I mean, you all seem to taking this a bit too calmly; a bit too nicely. For H's sake - we're all going to die! And you're just sat there chatting away about bears.

I don't know how Jacob's Creek manage to be quite so consistent, but their Shiraz Cabernet never fails to get me ratted. I'm now beginning to see the folly in all that Spätlese I was drinking earlier. Still find me a 'mit prädikat' at under £4 a pop and I'll stick it in the trolly.

God, it's quiet in here.

I like the Bear R's Chic name, though my instinct is to read it as Bears R Chic thus missing the joke. But that could just be me. ;-)

Now safely home, watching MOnarch, and able to poke my own cat when he tries to sleep. ;-)

Pit Bill, Bear Faced Chic was my first choice, but I seem to remember someone else using it. Anybody know how I find out if it IS being used by anyone?(:o)

BTW Pit Bill, what were you doing up at 3.30 am? You weren`t chatting with Yelli were you, she said she couldn`t sleep last night? (;o)

I should have been so lucky, Gal. Nothing more sinister than too many G & Ts and TV.

Belated condolances for the cat, by the way. It would have been bad enough if it had been a moggy, cos I know that feeling.

Thanks Pit Bill, it was a really awful thing to happen. You must remember how excited I was about getting him, and he developed into a beautiful adult. Only two years old - what a waste. One or two of our bbsers met him - Gav in particular would remember him as he had a fascination with following the boys into the toilet and watching them pee! I was looking forward to them seeing him again - they would have been utterly amazed at how big he had grown. Coming on the heels of having to have my lovely old Himalayan, George, put to sleep - well it really was a blow. (:o(

Even my first litter of BSHs, cute as they are, wasn`t enough to soften the blow.

Thins must be tough down your way Gal, but it was a bit harsh putting the gardener to sleep wasn't it? Surely Pete could have got a second job?
