What'swrongwiththisjoketiming.

The other night Bloody Ern (who lives on, but only just), Bezley and Abacus came up for dinner. After shepherd's pie, roast vegies and chocolate pud everyone settled in to watch Australian Story, wherein Lizzie Spender related her adventures of taming a brumby and taking it home with her to Sydney.

I got a bit bored and went looking for the cat. I sailed back into the lounge room, furball cradled lovingly in my arms, telling everyone to look at this would you, just as old Lizzie announced:

"I think, for those of us who've not had children, a relationship with an animal is all the more important."
