Winter is Coming

BUT IT IS STILL ALL SUNNY AND BLUE SKIES HERE Wonka you all mumble from your best position on the chair or settee.  MARK MY WORDS folks, as soon as Owner fell back in from her latest shopping expedition clutching a new WINTER coat, I took it as a sign.  Expect freezing conditions to arrive any minute.  SO grapple in the Narnia cupboards for the wellies, find your thermostat molecular (what is that word?X? gloves, your Dr Phew scarf and thick socks....ME? thanks for asking, I as you know already sport a pretty decent fur coat AND usually cuddle up to one of the searing hot rads around this good homeo......unless little pip Squeak got there first in which case.....................X



There he is!! our best Ruggles who used to have a heated pad when he lived in our kitchen but these days he has an entire settee stroke library and is at this very moment snuggled on the softest cushion there is.X  jealous? ME? not a bit of it.XX

HAS OWNER TAKEN THE COAT BACK YET WONKA? you all shout up, wide awake and trying to imagine Owner in it.  so far, she has tried it one three times, tried it on with different scarfs, hung it up and touched it, pinned a poppy on it, and looked at it several times a day BUT as yet has not worn it outside AND there is no hint it must go back to the shop.  Does this colour suit me Wonka? she droned to me and folks I said YES IT DOES as quick as a flash it being practically slamming up to my tea time and me being starving.  folks it is the colour of the turning leaves of Autumn and OF COURSE it suits Owner, she looks a dream. end of.XX

There is still no talk of work and at this rate Owner will concentrate so hard on looking after US three (the newbie Squeak is growing so fast I have warned against spoiling it etc.X  I know.X) visiting the aged in her new home and SHOPPING - how will she fit anything else in this busy routine?  I did mention to Owner that a few days work here and there wouldn't go amiss but she may not have heard me above watching The Apprentice on catch up and shouting at one of the women who was being very annoying I DIDNT CATCH HER NAME WONKA she kept saying to me....... folks, she will probably go on to win it.XX

 
There we are folks one of Owner's old cartoony wotsits and the main thing that has not changed since it was born (and Owner has been in thrall to it since it was X) is Lordy Lord Sugah.X
 
Now in the bewildering world of pollytics, all is on hold, or backed up, or in a transition OR on a massive march.  The march was attended by all the main parties except for Jezzer who must have got himself locked in the shed for the day. will the peasants I mean people have another go at voting for a mysterious unclear secretive knitting pattern called Blastit?  Who can say.  Mrs May continues to trot here and there wearing a different ball and chain round her neck each time.  A smooth operator calling himself Dom Rabbit or something very like it, talked to Andrew Marr, and also trotted out a load of charming waffle about more doorstops and draught excluders until I was quite giddy and Owner was revving up for a right good shout at the telly.  I suggested watching the first repeat of the Hex Factor to calm her nerves folks and it worked.  donwald the trump who doesn't deserve a capital, is busy believing stories that a three year old would question but he was colouring in at the time.X
 
Owner is managing to fit in The Apprentice as you know with no firm fave as yet BUT (sound of KlaXON) is now supporting Charles and Karen in Strictly.  We watched their street dahnce darlings and BLIMEY was it good or was it AMAZINK. so now we have FOUR faves and only three votes.  I know.  On the Hex Factor Owner is plonking for a Jamaica chappie called Dalton something and she shouted Winner after about two seconds of him singing.  We love Robbie and AIYDAH his wife and won't hear a word against them.  In Corrie all is gone to the police station or the hospital only proving my point that there should be a spin off series now based in either of them.  SHINAID has got an impossible decision to make and has not told Daniel.  Owner is droning on about a Greek Tragedy and dilemmas but I have ignored her so far. Petah is up against it with his new and horrid employee who is the mother of that equally horrid son who made SYMON's life a misery. Can Petah sort it without carling black eyebrows getting involved and me and Owner both think not.  XX  PS we are avoiding the quiz show called letterbox and the confusion over the pronunciation (GULP.x) of H which we all know is AITCH but she will not let it go if someone says HAITCH.  Annoying beyond annoying even to me folks.X
 
There we are folks! That was last year and it is SO LAST YEAR and it also means, that our beloved EggHeads is on at the silly time of quarter to five when no one PERSONNE is ready to sit down and watch anything.  IF by a million to one chance anyone from the Beeb is reading this can you please swap these programmes round!!!! X
 
Do take it steady folks and try not to be anxious if your feline suddenly lashes out at a newbie who has done nothing DE RIEN to deserve this attention except by darting around and frolicking about and coming just too close..................... I am such a friendly furry purry thing most of the time folks but even I have my limits.  Owner told me to take a deep breath and count to ten and I said what like you do Owner? but luckily she didn't hear me above the kettle coming up to boil. So approach next week with your best winter coat lined up and you claws sharpened at the ready for whatever comes your way.  Big Love Wonka X
