Hello Kitten

[Gopher]

Of course it does, and it was even more likely because I shall be out in the fields at my stepbrother's farm on Satuday.

This morning was great though, the sun was shining, the air crisp but not unpleasantly cool and for some minutes I was able to enjoy just standing in the garden looking at the last of the flowers and thinking how lovely the world was.

Did you have a camera with you to record the moment for solace in wintertime?  In the field, in the nasty weather?  Why???  In the house, with a cozy fire..........now that sounds much nicer, don't you think?

[Gopher]

It does, and I have a feeling that I may succumb to that lucrative temptation - especially if the meal includes a couple of glasses of wine (which it most likely will).

[kitten]

The voice of reason is heard!

[Gopher]

Did it have anything interesting to say?

[kitten]

The couple of glasses of wine was certainly loud and clear!

[Gopher]

I bet you didn't realise that your last message was the 1,400th on this thread!

[kitten]

No, I didn't.  Wordy bunch, aren't we!  And of course this was your bright idea.  Thank you.

[Gopher]

The thanks are entirely due to your own inspiration, without which not a word would have been said.  

[kitten]

Looking back, the sole inspiration I provided was by temporarily disappearing.

[Gopher]

Well, that all goes to show, doesn't it? Although what it shows I've no idea - therefore I await your omniscience to provide the answer.

[kitten]

Guess it shows that anything, no matter how small, can grow into something huge when provided the proper impetus.

LOL i just realized this thread was started because Gopher didn't see Kitten on line. lol!  

[Gopher]

She was hanging  out on the line day after day, and then one day I came on and she wasn't there - thinking she'd got stuck in the washing machine, I decided to make enquiries.

[kitten]

So the acorn turned into an oak tree.  

  I hate to say this, but just when it gets interesting it's time to leave.
