    Miss Meow has now been successfully taken to the vet. I managed to get her into the carrier with only one scratch. She was so terrified about the whole thing the vet has prescribed sedatives for next time. She has also been declared overweight and in need of a diet, so of course the first thing she did when we got home was make a beeline for her dry food bowl and stuff her face with comfort kibble.

    On the way home I beeped at a pedestrian for the first time ever. Seriously Miss Pedestrian, you have right of way to cross the road, not to stop half way contemplating life or admiring the view or whatever it was she was up to. Then, to add to the excitement of the trip, when I got home there was a police crime scene unit parked next door. I am guessing someone robbed the new townhouses over the road, empty houses filled with brand new appliances tend to be a bit of a target.

      I love when pedestrians cross the road, but do so at an angle or diagonally or whatever, then wave as is we are ok with it. no you muppet! Cross is a straight line, quick as you can. Dont stuff around talking on the phone or whatever.

        I just had that happen this morning when I went out for a quick chemist trip.

        Blocked me as I was turning into a lane, blocked me from reverse parking and initiating it and blocked me when I need to go back forwards to angle myself correctly.

        Also got in my way as I was walking into the shopping centre.

        It’s amazing how non attentive pedestrians can really get in your way.

      Miss Meow is missing chompers and is still overweight. What are you feeding her? Maybe she’s raiding the pantry while you’re asleep.
