I can only drink so much . . .

I figured ODing on anaesthetic was a little more peaceful and less messy
than high speed lead tablets.

He was suffering from renal failure, probably due to his age and past
medical history.  He was about 13.5 yo and suffered FUS 5 years ago.

DD>> so it's probably safe for you to visit here now :-) 

BG>> Safe for whom?  Me, or the cat?  (sorry, I mean ex-cat)

DD>> Bugger all you can do to him now . .

 BG> Dunno, he might be dead, but he'll still burn, won't he?  |-)

I've been watering the garden, so he's probably a bit soggy . . .

 BG> What shrub?  I'd have thought that a Loquat tree would have been

Yeah, ok
