Yes, that XTC.
Making Plans For Nigel was one of the worst things they ever did but it made them a LOT of money. So they - well, Andy Patridge - could go on to write songs like The Disappointed - hence my username.

Pippin (deceased) was a lady kitty. She's in the first page of my profile (I think.)

I miss her, but Pippin 2 - possibly needing a new name - is keeping me busy.

I was raising a glass to undercovercarrot's cat but I shall raise a glass to Pippen too.
I'm sure I had one of XTC's albums many years ago but my addled brain can only remember that one song.

Edit - now I have that damn song in my head.

As Joe Hill said - "Don't mourn - Organise!"
(My other passion - the IWW and American Socialism - in other words how different the world might have been now.)

Pippin (the first) died happy.

I cried my eyes out when she went, and I miss her a lot, but now I have Pippin 2.

She loves affection, she sulks when she doesn't get it, she's playful and fun.

And this is very entertaing cricket.
