Caterpillars Trap Car In Web

Reminds me of my own car - hard to tell what colour it is underneath the dirt.

Thanks to Isti for my award, he has a proper blog. I'd also like to thank the internet for having me, it's always open night and day, letting me nosey around.

More thanks to: cats and dogs around the world (esp. Keyboard Cat) which are featured in the majority of my posts, weirdos, chocolate, Mafia Wars (which I play in between blogging) and my comfy chair which stops my arse getting too itchy during record-breaking sessions on the internet allowing me to scour the very four corners of the internet for blog loot. I also have a full-time job (in case you're thinking I'm a lazy hallion) which I drive 14 miles to, 5 days a week in a very bumpy car...you can show your appreciation by clubbing up and buying me a vintage Lotus Esprit. Thanks, now.



I'm passing on this prize to:

Shane MacGowans' new teeth


Hell-raising former Pogues star Shane MacGowan has finally swapped his infamous gnashers for a set of pristine new teeth.

The singer, who was unmistakable for his gappy smile, jetted to Spain for some serious dental work and now looks almost unrecognisable in my new snap.

He says he had the emergency dentures to stop his face “falling apart” after 35 years on the thrash.

The person with most say on a state funeral is Elizabeth Windsor (sometimes known as the Queen)...more

Tigger gathers up the courage to go outside

Tigger was abandoned in our barn as a small kitty by it's mother. He remained wild and aloof until a week ago when he decided we weren't all that bad and allowed us to pet him. As we couldn't catch him until now, he's never been out of the barn, where he's lived for months with his Bovine friends. This is his first encounter with the outside world...

"Whaaat!"

"Hoooo!"
