This sort of Tinsel would certainly look beautiful in a tree, but could cause it to tip over. If this were an old-fashioned kind of tree, with lit candles, the consequences could be dire. I do not like to think about Christmas in June, but would be happy to think about Tinsel anytime.

Kittykay: people who know me tend to think that I am an extremist when it comes to taking pictures, but maybe you are even more extreme than me.

Well, once again I am off on big travels about the Far North and will be absent from Pet Talk for a few weeks. To all those cats whose day I will miss while I am gone: you're damn good, each and every one of you and I know it even without seeing you, but you can't read my compliments, anyway, and wouldn't know if I made them or not, so it doesn't really matter - but you are all damn good, and you know it, too, and don't need me to tell you.

Bye for now.
