Title: In season
Post by: Lesley Silvester on November 30, 2011, 11:54:14 pm
At last Pom has decided to come into season and is making quite a lot of noise about it, far more than she used to.  Does having kidded make a difference?  Of course her timing could have been better. Next season due Christmas week which is not very convenient especially as we will have to travel to Dorset to visit our new granddaughter sometime in December, whenever she decides to put in her appearance.  She's due on 13th so we are hoping she's not late.  So's our daughter.  ;D

Just as well I had Curry castrated judging by the hoof marks all over her back.  Has he never heard of incest?   ;D
Or maybe he's heard the saying "Vice is nice but incest is best."  He's tried it on with his gran as well.  She was NOT impressed.   :o

Paul ... yes, it must do!!! ;)

Curry = dirty boy! As my late mother in law was told when they had a mature cat castrated, "its his balls operated on, not his brain!" so it must be inate :D

Good luck for your daughter Lesley, poor kid - who'd want to be a Christmas baby?

Well, Paul, I didn't like to say anything but ......  ;D

Ruth, he's a randy little so and so.  Curry, that it, not Paul.  The main reason that none of us want little Tamika to be born too near Christmas is that her big sister and daddy both have 20th December as their birthdays.  What are the odds of Tamika making it a hat trick?

So far he's behaved when he's been here!   ;) ;)  But then again, I know where his wife works.   ;D

My elder son is on 4th January and people used to say, "I'll get him one good present."  I used to ask them not to.  Children would prefer two £1 presents to one £5 present.  It's all about quantity when they're little.  My youngest grandson has just had his fourth birthday.  When his mummy asked what he would like for his present, he said, "A big one."   :thumbsup:   I'm giving him a lucky dip.  About twelve parcels all wrapped and in a big box.  My kids used to love these when they were little.

My 'granddaughter's' is too. She was induced as well, you'd have thought they could have done it on Christmas Eve at least! We make a point of two pressies, one lot wrapped in deliberately non-Christmas paper  :D
