If this means you want to chew my head off leaving tattered and bedraggled remains, the queue for this has shortened slightly of late . However you may still want to pre-book a timeslot.

Anguirel is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
Actually, the relationship between catnip mouse and cat is tragic. Destroyed by love. Like Eol and Aredhel...

Thumbs up The joy of categorisation of Forum members.

I've just been handed this rather interesting gem of a website. If you're having difficulty in imagining a fellow Forum member, then try to first fit them into one of the categories on thsi website.

i don't think you can say what you yourself are. I think you have to be told by someone else. Have fun, children!

Look here!!!

Hilde - I couldn't see that link Was it a pic of the Avengers as in the classic 60's TV show? In that case I shall have to gender swap because I have to have the bowler hat of course, being the bearacrat (beuracrat? beauraucrat?.....aaargh)!

This is truly profound! My cats have an old, tatty ratty, he has been 'loved' so much by them that his insides are hanging out and he only has one eye and one ear.

Yes Lalwendë, it was the 60's Avengers, and such a darn good black and white studio photo too! Ah well.

It seems a bit more tragic when a dog falls for the cat's catnip mouse. We also have one with its insides peeking out.

Does that mean we can then imagine davem in a black leather catsuit and high-heeled boots?

You may if you like, Esty, but I would prefer not to summon up that image!
Actually, neither catsuit nor the bowler was present in this particular photo.

It was Diana, Lalaith. She is the only Mrs. Peel to me.

I am still not sure if this is sweet or scary....

Anguirel, Mormegil and Gurthang are of course all swords.

However, Anguirel is a Toledo rapier, Mormegil is a broadsword and Gurthang (sorry the avatar makes me think of you as a practical joker) is one of those stage swords you can pretend to stab people with... or maybe a cutlass.

Wilwarin is antique lace

Lalaith (of course) is a skylark
