I think, I will build a Nano, out of the Junk, in my Backyard, and Beat Two Indians out of a Job. Then I will Bring it to England, and Visit LT, at the Home.

BIH, I love your pics. In fact, the LTNS banned one is now my background on my laptop. One question - what with the cat? And why has it only got one ear?

I just had this image of LTNS as a cat person, probably with a miserable, angry feline. It just seemed to fit. As to the ear, this strikes me as a tom cat who has been in a scrap or two and wears his injuries proudly.

I too see LTNS as a `cat person`, but with a `character` cat rather than a miserable one, a neutered Tom with attitude, and a History..and like all cats, it regards its human as `staff`.
It does seem a shame that something so `British` as Jaguar should cease to be so, but won`t that just make the pre-sell-off ones that much more so?
Maybe the Americansd thought along these lines when Britain started producing Ford cars here!

Its a good job LT does not come around here then. As you can see a flat screen would not be appreciated and the other one keeps watch!

Lovely moggies, DaveB. Our sleek black lady moggie wasn`t my choice...folks next door had her brother, a ginger tom - the one I`d have chosen.

How about Rats then, LT? Intelligent, sociable with humans, clean habits if allowed the facility by pet owners... our Alice was a wonderful pet, nearly as beloved as our dogs, she was.
