The collected opinions of an august and aristocratic personage who, despite her body having succumbed to the ravages of time, yet retains the keen intellect, mordant wit and utter want of tact for which she was so universally lauded in her younger days. Being of a generation unequal to the mysterious demands of the computing device, Lady Bracknell relies on the good offices of her Editor for assistance with the technological aspects of her journal.

Kitten therapy (a reprise)

In response to Lady Bracknell's mention of the latest litter of kittens in the original Kitten therapy entry, Amanda from Magnetique has very kindly sent her ladyship this hugely-endearing photograph of the black smoke curly boy.


Lady Bracknell's admittedly rather unimaginative suggestion of "Sooty" as a name for the little chap not having taken, he is currently known (thanks to Amanda's young daughter) as "IgglePiggle".

Lady Bracknell is having to exert a quite extraordinary level of self-control to prevent herself from posting a cheque to Leeds at once and thereby "bagsying" the delightful little fellow.

She must, however, content herself instead with hoping that he and his brothers and sisters will soon be ensconced in comfortable homes where their curliness and equability of temperament will be fully appreciated.

Hugely endearing? Am I alone in finding said kitten rather unnerving and of the 'don't feed after midnight or get wet' variety? He looks like he's plotting something devilish. Personally I think the name 'Steerpike' suits him very well.

Igglepiggle sounds good to me. While I don't want a cat under any circumstances at all whatsoever, I can imagine calling the name.

I'm with Lily on this one - not a cat I'd want to know was in the house when I was asleep but equally not one that I would want out after dark. Might I suggest the name of Damien?
