    Perfect description of your chances and echoes of the family involvement in the fine cotton affair where they tried to pull the cotton over our eyes.
    They operate under the same legal jurisdiction as Insurance companies; In the eyes of the law they are both the same; and we know how honest, reliable, fair and ethical they are …….even when you win you lose.
    That green chappy looks like the local witch bank manager, and, facially, is related to the former Big WC boss and current tampax news chairman doing battle with Gina from Talia.

    ooh goody a teatowel.

    The etymology of ‘velvet bagpipes’ stems from the need to describe the pose once the original term ROFLMAO was stolen by the internet and its meaning changed.
    ‘Rolling On Floor Licking My Ass Off’ which denoted feline disdain as in “you may think that is hilarious but I find my bottom more interesting” was corrupted and changed to convey uncontrolled mirth. Most uncatlike.

    EMC, you could be in line for another tea towel.

    A cat of my acquaintance uses the terminology ‘playing double bass’.

    EMC: Agreed. No feline would lower its dignity by laughing out loud. A dignified smirk is to a cat what rolling on the floor with paws in the air does to a dog.
