Oh I am 😠!

When he next comes to my home for tea he’ll be getting a sardine & avocado salad, vegetable chilli and yogurt with nuts and berries.
Sounds delicious.

A bit like comparing an inoffensive, neat pile of horse manure to the disgusting squirt of mess a cat produces when fed cheap tinned food 🤢
There is nothing in the world more offensive and downright dangerous than cat poo on a linoleum floor.

Yes. Yes, it will. Despite Greenpeas' attempts to convince us that agricultural waste is a vegetable, meat eating as we know it will continue among people who know what's good for their health.

Almost nothing.

The cat itself is marginally
if you're a human; if you're wildlife, disastrously and disgustingly
more dangerous, and decidedly more offensive.

Tony Benn is one of the few British politicians in whose face I would not gladly, a prima vista, fire an elephant shell.

On a scale of 1 to 10... 10 being Marc Almond on an anal relaxant... how homosexual are you?

Lino floors were lethal, reminds me of when my dad slid on an older drunken brother’s vomit as he walked to the loo across a darkened landing, his dressing gown flying up as his bare back slapped the floor 🤣
