PM on the way.

Grace got it!

Author is James Herriot.

“When it came to my turn I was able to reach Alfred and I tickled him under his chin.

He liked that and raised his head high while the purring rumbled up
from the furry rib cage until it resounded throughout the shop.”


She gets extra credit for the author! I'm awaiting word on whether she'll host; stay tuned! I've also given her a challenge to come up with another twist to tease our brains...

Grace will host, but not today. We'll see it soon - Good Luck everyone!
