Cat came north again with us, two days in the car, and on arrival mysteriously turned out to have fleas. Owner of house in question has been exceedingly forgiving about same, and cat hence occupies her hallowed place surrounded by the family in front of the fire, with no reduction in self-assurance. There really is nothing like the household gathered around the hearth.
Wishing you all the same or similar, minus fleas.
Hoping btw that folks who post on the Scottish Newsgroup will read here as well. I'd post greetings over there too but logistics prevent it at the moment.

Fewer and fewer, I should think. Granted, it's been rather quiet over on abg-o lately -- but here on the Ben Brumfield Blog it's just Boring.
cheers,
Henry
Posted by: Henry Larsen at December 25, 2006 03:29 PMWell, Henry, in a seasonal spirit of relentless cheerfulness, I'm gonna ask if you could pass on some sort of comfort-and-joy greetings in that direction. Seriously, I'm away from home and can't post directly to Usenet.
