That is a small cat - our moggie is a chunky but lean 7kg (15.5lb). If that photographer has tripped over our cat he would have been flat on his face.

Woah - how did I miss this? Happy belated Grahame - hope you had an absolutely spiffing day.

Ha ha. Baron Trump-konnen. Similar fatness, similar colonial intents with force, taking possession of areas for natural resources, similar survival of assassination attempt(s).

Lets not forget the Henry Kissinger got the Nobel Peace Prize after destabilising Chile under the socialist government of Allende, and putting in August Pinochet - a torturing, disappearances human abusing right wing dictator. And Chile was a whole lot further from the USA than Venezuela. Slight personal recollection. My Dad was in the Merchant Navy the early/mid 50's to mid 60's in (by today's standard) tiny oil tankers. The ship used to dock at Punta Cardon in North Venezuela to the oil refinery there. So Venezuelan oil was a thing way back

A belated one - hope it was a spifflingly good day!

Excellent - thanks! I'm only sorry we have such dick head regulators in our small island, spoiling IMGUR access for the 65 million crammed in to our speck of dirt.

As soon as you guys start using IMGUR, we cannot see content in the UK. This is because the UK on-line regulator OFCOM is suing IMGUR as a result of lack of assurance regarding harmful content to minors (AKA under 18!). IMGUR has responded by simply showing a blue screen with "Content not viewable in your region" in large letters. This describes the decision https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gzxv5gy3qo IMGUR images look like this from the UK

(perhaps a human) Happy Birthday

Have a truly superb day - Happy Birthday

From Wikipedia 1 breakfast cup = 8 British imperial fluid ounces = ⁠4/5 tumbler = 1 1/3 cups = 1⁠ 3/5 teacups = 3⁠ 1/5 coffee cups = 4 wine glasses = ⁠2/5 British imperial pint ≈ 7.69 US customary fluid ounces ≈ 0.96 US customary cup ≈ 227.3 millilitres ≈ 0.91 metric cup The mind boggles. I actually had no idea what the markings on our kettle actually meant; now I know Hahaha! Just checked our very British kettle - and it is calibrated in metric units up to a maximum of 1.7 litres. So so much for the British Imperial fluid ounce red herring.

Imgur are still blocking content to UK viewers. All I see is a blue box with "CONTENT NOT VIEWABLE IN YOUR REGION". Their caps, not mine Because our on-line regulator Ofcom has decided to sue them under the UK Online Safety Act. Imgur has responded by blocking all Imgur content to people from the UK. Ho hum. This is the BBC's article on the Imgur blue screen https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gzxv5gy3qo

Happy birthday!

And a happy belated from me too!

Our daughter, having lived in Australia for the last 10 years, developed the characteristic rising inflexion at the end of each sentence (listen to the Wombat walkers). She then decided that it sounded just wrong as an ex-pat Brit, and eradicated it totally from the way she speaks.

Happy birthday both!
