    I thought it was only my siamese that spazzed out like that. I loved it as a kid, they would hit the polished floorboards full pelt then end up scrabbling nearly backwards to turn. The noise of their claws sliding across the gaps in the boards is one of those childhood memories.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    The only reason Mr Fuffy Puffers doesn't kill you is you're bigger then him. What do you think is going through their minds while they stare at us with their eyes half closed?

    Or when they watch you from just around the corner with only one eye...they're planning your murder.

    For a while in my life my best mate was my Siamese (Got him as an 8 week old kitten) he brought so much fun & love into my world as at that period I spent allot of time on the crane levers and riding fast bikes and faster women which had lost its appeal sadly I changed my routine pulling into the driveway and he mistook that I had parked the car I hadn't when I moved forward after a quick pause he came in from the front Rt and the left front got him, he died in my arms on the driveway I was heartbroken to say the least he was 2 1/2 years old just getting into his stride. RIP "Bluey" 1982 - 1984

    RCS your playing a dangerous game letting the cat near weapons as they are always plotting our downfall do not let those kitten eyes fool you there is a mess of planning going on in that kitty cat.

    Nice looking cat Jim looks to have some size to him we had a standard moggie once we had not named him until we went fishing one morning and got into some nice Tailor, so when home I started filleting the fish and thought o.k mister smart puss we will see how many filleted fish scraps you can eat, well he stopped at the 13th filleted fish complete with eating bodies, bones, head & tail. Henceforth he became known as "The Pelican" alas one day made a mistake and was hit by a car I buried him beside our house another cat that died in my arms.
    He was a burster of a cat he sat in the middle of the road one day where we used to live and made cars go around him, his first tree he climbed I had to rescue him as he slipped and got stuck in a fork, he got to know our 40 kilo Doberman as "Rocket" had him in a corner 2" from his nose the cats eyes we popping out of his head it was a wonder his fur never fell out he puffed himself up so much the dog just wanted to play another save by me.......!

    We have a cat, was feral when the local SPCA got him. He was terrified and still pretty scared when anyone comes to the door. Indoor only and wouldn't survive outside but the best cat we have ever had.

    I doubt anyone would ever have adopted him being he was so scared and it took the better part of two years before he jumped up on my lap for the first time. Now sleeps on the end of my bed most nights and will sleep on your lap for hours.

    He has some sort of gastrointestinal issue and his food has cost $2,000.00 a year. We now are able to give him some dry food so guess it will now be about 1,600.00/year, more KD for us? We would go without food before the cat did, he means that much to us. We have spent over 10 grand so far on food, tomorrow another 86.00 for two cases of wet and today 46.00 for a bag of dry.

    Oh his name...Glock, he's black like the handgun.
    Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?

    Here is my accidental Boss, my wife brought her home after she was rejected for scratching my niece, she hasn't left my side in 12 years since. A Bombay, she tolerates my wife but sticks to me like glue. When I head downstairs she races to the gun room door ahead of me then looks up at the gun safe door until I open the safe and set her in the top shelf.Attachment 84791Attachment 84791
