Title: Ben in helpful (?) mode
Post by: Gillian Harvey on June 01, 2008, 17:15:29 PM
Ben, who for the past hour or so has been laid out like this - not unusual for him of course, its his favourite position. I wouldnt mind, but, I'm trying to work on some wedding bouquet pictures this afternoon, and he's laid out right in front of my table that I work on, so I can't push my chair in and have to keep stepping over the little blighter LOL!  :evillaugh:

Oh, scuse my carpet - I've been snipping little bits of flowers and thats what the bits are all over it! Ben's also got a little bit of the garden in his tail I see too LOL!   :)

Aww, bless him!  :Luv: :Luv:  I seem to spend half my time stepping over cats.  They always seem to choose the worst places to nap.  I'm sure they do it on purpose.

Couldn't agree more, I've got used to the cat obstacle course but my poor OH is recovering from back surgery and struggling to get to toilet and back as Henry is stretched out by his feet and Charley has dominated the hall.

How helpful do you want Gillian - at least he isn't wide awake and helping with flowers, although you would get some very interesting arrangements I bet  :rofl: :rofl:

LOL! thats true. Although, that has happened, just got the delicate and brittle pressed flowers arranged on the material and one decides to jump on the table before I've had a chance to fling my arm out to stop whoever it is (usually George!). Those darn cat hairs are a devil to see on the material - UNTIL you fix the glass over the top and fit the frame - stand back to admire, and see this 100 times magnified blinkin cat hair...... :Crazy:

I know just what you mean.  I used to do cross stitch and there was always black cat hair framed for posterity.  I wouldn't have minded so much, but I used to spend ages with a pair of tweezers removing the hairs before framing.  No matter how hard I tried, I never managed to get them all.   What is that breed of cat that has no fur?  Hmmmmm
