...on the other hand...

On the other hand, the reason Haggis might be full of beans all of a sudden, might be that he has survived another Burns Night without getting eaten. We actually got some (haggis) to taste this year - Mum and Dad's eyes bigger than their bellies. It was delicious and we wolfed it down.

Ah well, H, you can relax for another year.

Young Diamond was round last night having just brough Rags to the vets which has opened next to the Home for the Bewildered just at the back of us. This is the first time we've seen him since about June 2009, when Diamond started on this medical journey and had to be careful around getting scratched due to the risk of infections. He's spent most of that time on his "holidays" lodging with a couple of chums of Diamond's out on the London Road.

He doesn't change, the old Devil, although he's mellowed a bit and now leaves off trying to mount Haggis as soon as the H objects (rather than keepin' on keepin' on). However, it seems, although he now does very little to annoy me, I persist in grumbling and growling from a handy human lap as soon as he walks too close. Old habits die hard, but the humans are saying it might be me issued with the ASBO next, and Rags's be rescinded.

One year there is going to be a big mistake and all of haggis's fears will come true and he will end up being eaten.....

Give out regards to Diamond, hope all goes well.
