This is one of my cats. His name is Dudley and he was born in April 2008 I think. So he's just over a year old. I share my life with ten cats and two dogs and of course Jamie! Life with Dudley is never boring. He has a fascination with water. Last night I was watering my plants and he got all excited and was chasing around after the watering can.

















I decided to see what was in my bag. A lot. Dudley took great interest in what I was doing. I think I need to sort out the mess that is my bag one day. That's the problem though, I always put it off for another day. There are so many other things to be doing.





















Dudley is a very sociable cat. There are builders working on one of the cottages near me and I heard that he was sitting on one of their knees one day.

Buttocks

I found a new word. It's callipygian meaning having shapely buttocks! You learn something new everyday. I'll have to find a reason to use it.

Books and Buns

There is no frigate like a book

To take us lands away,

I work in a library in Ireland. As a child I used to play library and made my own little tickets to put in the books. I see this as something positive as they say that what you used to dream of doing as a child are the things that are true to your true spirit and passions. However, playing library was just one of many things I loved doing as a child.

Oh yeah I forgot. The bun part of books and buns. Well, I was thinking about a chocolate bun or muffin that I had for breakfast. It's such a pleasant thing to eat while reading and drinking a warming cup of Earl Grey tea. Mmmm.....
