Yesterday evening I took Biscuit for a walk along the canal.
It started to rain so we took shelter on a seat under a big tree and was joined by a Scottish guy who reminded me of Jim Carey in Lemony Snicket. We had a lovely chat but Biscuit was a little reticent with him. I don't think she likes Jim Carey look-a-likes.

Soggy biscuit?

Not so much soggy as damp.

Moist.
Far more suggestive!

Biscuit is only a youngster.
I'm not sure I like the idea of her name being bandied about in suggestive conversations.

Which is why
Pissflaps would never be a good name for a dog.

I read in the QOTW on pet names that someone had called their cat Taxi
so they could shout it at the bottom of the garden at night times. I lolled for days about that.

How is Biscuit in general?

She's my little pot of valium on legs.
She's doing ok. Mithering poor Benji to death.

Aw, she sounds like me
Yapping and mithering

Mithering is a new word to me
Could someone define it please?

It means bothering.

( girlinthehole, Thu 22 Jul 2010, 9:00, Reply)

Ah, OK
Thanks.
