I cannot believe such a sweet, frisky creature as myself - known for my warmth and sunshine and innocent sparkle - could inhabit the same continent as the saturnine Mr S - but, apparently, we do.

Er, who, pray tell, is Frank Cannon?

I believe mine are Howitzers - does that sound right? Specially built to fit into their cunning concealed pockets, as ever...

Quote:
Television's FRANK CANNON is a tough, expensive, overweight PI with a taste for fine food and wine. A former cop, he quit the force after the tragic death of his wife and infant son in an automobile accident. Haunted by the incident, he's put all his energy and considerable weight into his new profession of private detective, eventually becoming well-known and well-respected among his peers, both public and private. Despite his bulk, though, he's no armchair detective, à la Nero Wolfe. He'll do his own legwork, thank you very much. He'd tool around town in his big ass Lincoln Continental, knocking on doors, taking down names, actually working his cases, unlike some TV dicks. He was a shrewd investigator, dedicated, clever and not afraid of getting physical if he had to.

Hmm - I don't think I'd get him into one of the concealed pockets - he looks very effective, though.

Dear Auntie D

How are you surviving the cash crisis?
Is it all under control now? (Hope so!)
Any words of wisdom for us based on this experience?

Cheers,
Olga

Mr S - I cannot see your image!

Hmm - Msolga - the cash crisis. Not over, I fear. At present, there seems a small lull in hostilities, as I have just paid a raft of (overdue) bills, and appear, at present, actually to have an amount left over to live on! I also paid the first instalment of the $2, 400 I now owe friends - well, make that $2,360, now!

However - I know that this small pool of money may well disappear as the false oasis in the Sahara - I KNOW that, lurking somewhere, is the whopping bill that will put paid to this little respite - and send me scurrying for more outingless weekends and forays into the old foodstuffs at the back of the larder.


As yet, I can claim to have learned nothing from my months at the pointy end of the societal cash crisis!

Oh no! Not a sick cat! Crying or Very sad Nothing worse. Poor little wretch.
All mine are OK for the minute. (Daren't say more or I'll hex myself)

Ah, here I was hoping that you were solvent again. Though congratulations on getting rid of such a hefty back-log! What an amazing effort! Such amazing restraint that must have taken. This calls for a Friday night treat! Very Happy What'll it be then? A nice bottle of white? Very Happy
Commisserations on MORE belt tightening. I know, I know ... Not much fun!

Thank you for your kind words - no upchucking, or t'other tonight so far - but he normally saves it for bedtime...or the bed - as occurred last night...
