That's it then, it's all over. Ange has gone back to work and the lummox is moping around like a little lost lamb, poncing about doing odd jobs around my boat here and there. The holiday is finished. And yet... here we still are in Castleford. Bloody Castleford mind you! I was hoping to be shooing Snowy off my mooring by now but no, we've got to wait around for some arsing spare part to arrive before we can set off for Dowley Gap again. That means another eternity watching them two drinking wine and cooing at each other about how beautiful the oil lamp looks and what a lovely place this is and how they've had a fabulous time. Humans, I ask you.
I suppose it hasn't been all bad. The engine breaking down meant that I didn't have to put up with it's God awful noise too much. It really is intolerable to such a sensitive and demure cat such as myself. Add to that the fact that I've slaughtered no less than six (count em') mice and kept the humans awake quite a few nights by galloping up and down the roof to my heart's content and I think you'll agree that I've not had too bad a time of it. Just that damnable cruising I'm not keen on. Leeds was a pile of old arsewash of course and if we have to stop there on the way back then my protest will be long and loud let me tell you. We've stopped in quite a few countryside locations along the way and I personally don't see why we should have to put up with that concrete jungle. The lummox and the redhead should set their faces and plough on until we're out of Leeds and have left it trailing in our wake.
Being on holiday has also given me a chance to catch up on my beauty sleep quite a lot. My winter coat is coming in nicely and I need to pamper myself as much as catly possible to ensure it remains in tip-top condition.
I'll let you know how we get on of course and I can't wait to box that young upstart's ears once we get back. That mooring is mine and he better have kept himself off it. My woodpile, my shed, my grass, my mice. MINE!!! Mine all mine do you hear? I'll be back!
