It worked. What - you might ask? Well, I've been eying up the swing lid bin in the kitchen for a few days now, and I made my move while They were clearing up after breakfast. I waited until They weren't looking and jumped up onto the bin. The top opened up, and I ended up inside. She screamed; He swore; I just looked up and gave a lovely smile when They took the lid off.
How was I to know that I'd landed on the dirty laundry?
At this point, I'd like to warn others of you out there. She might not be representative of all humans, but beware - Her reaction was swift and sure. He was dispatched out in the van to town; She grabbed me and carted me off to the BATH. I hate that word at the best of times, but to have it foisted on me without any warning is just not on. No chance of an appeal. She was determined, and I ended up cold and wet. I just can't work out what I did wrong.
Even worse though was that by tonight, the bin had been replaced by one with a flat lid that even I can't get off, so my plans for a re-run in the morning using advanced tactics have all gone out of the window. Can anybody out there give me advise?

All my love

Have you missed me?

Have had very strong words with Them today. What's the point of me having a blog if They don't get home in time to let me have time on His computer? His answer was that He is trying to get a new job, and that when He does, he hopes He will have a big enough salary to buy me my own PC. And He thinks that I'm stupid enough to believe that I can write this on my own. After all I am a cat, with four paws and a very short attention span!
Today was Mothering Sunday - She got a card from me - even with my own paw print on it. Isn't that just sweet! As for expecting me to do anything special today, like He was trying to persuade me to do......... Best I could come up with was to wake Her up at 0540, and then again at 0700, and 0800 - all on a Sunday morning!

Anyway, I'm back on this blog, so please leave your comments

All my love
