Sleeping rough in Johannesburg

Sleeping rough Johannesburg

I can’t imagine that you get a good night’s sleep in a tent, let alone an ‘electrified one’ what a silly bunch of humans the South Africans must be!


Don’t miss my Kickstarter Project

For a limited time only, as they say, you can help with what has been described as the best Kickstarter project ever, namely The Cat’s 3D Animated Movie Project.

Yes that’s right if you click here MY KICKSTARTER PROJECT you can help yourself to a piece of what will be movie history. I’m making a trailer for my up coming movie and I really need your help! Give as much as you like for wonderful and valuable rewards.

Sadly we live in a suspicious world so if you send this link to a friend you might like to use this one to show that there isn’t any funny business involved, there never is on my blog or site but then only you and I know that don’t we!

They can paste it into their browser and go straight to my 3D animated movie project page on Kickstarter.

Educational nonsense across the world

As we all know who are or have been parents it is time to send our little one and indeed our bigger ones back to school and so with that in mind I thought i would share a little snap I saw from a South African TV news programme which was discussing the importance of education.

Educational nonsense across the world

Oops! Well it just goes to show how important a good education is doesn’t it?

An unusual sign especially for the Olympics

Usually if I see a sign that has been deliberately altered or ‘defaced,’ to be more precise, I tend not to include it in my little collection of silly signs but as it’s Olympics fortnight I thought I would make an exception for this bilingual sign.

Swim in Poo

I believe that it’s also important to mention the Olympics today because Mr Cameron the Team GB Prime Minister has said that the Olympics should have a lasting legacy! Makes ten sound like the royal family for some reason – I suppose it is always because royalists are trying to justify their existence too when this last Diamond Jubilee Bank Holiday proved that the royals are a bigger waste of money than space by costing the nation several billion for an extra day off, and still they whine to give them a royal yacht, I just don’t get it do you?

Mind you he, Davy Cameron that is, did say all that Olympic nonsense at the same time as his government has announced that they will be getting rid of a lot of school playing fields, the very place where school age athletes train.

Still as more than half of the Team GB medal winners come from schools where rich parents pay a small fortune to educate their children in what the English call “private schools” these days and so that shouldn’t affect Team GB should it.

But sadly the mainly private school educated chumps in the Cameron government weren’t content with just snatching school playing fields, so that their rich buddies who donate to the party could build houses and industrial estates that will probably remain empty because of the recession, they went a little further and will sadly cancel the two hour cigarette break for school teachers who teach games and another subject.

All of which makes the sign above rather relevant because the UK as a whole and England in particular seems to be swimming in the very stuff it mentions – politicians who needs them?

Panther Piss the perfect pick up

If you are feeling a little down in the dumps and need a bit of a pick me up then I think I have discovered the perfect tonic.

Strong stuff from South Africa

Panther Piss is probably ten times stronger than the more famous Piddle Beer from Dorset, in England, that a friend of mine likes to quaff in considerable quantities and reading the ingredients I can understand why! 90% Alcohol and more than a dash of Nitric Acid, wow strong stuff!

Now I have to say that I don’t know a lot about Panther Piss but I believe that it is an illegal liquor distilled in and then sold to the people of the Townships of South Africa, what I do know is that whoever makes the stuff in the Townships must really loathe their fellow humans beings.

So how I hear you ask, does Panther Piss do what I say it will do in the opening line? Simple really! If you know someone who is feeling a little down in the dumps and in need a bit of a pick me up then all you have to do is to threaten them with a dose of Panther Piss, I bet they will feel better immediately or sooner!

What Are The Penguins Up To?

You know that I have always thought that Penguins were not to be trusted and now I think I have found photographic proof from South Africa that proves my case!

What Are The Penguins Up To
Just ask yourself this; what are Penguins doing under vehicles? I bet they’re not practicing their skills as mechanics! And I don’t think that Penguins are under vehicles just because they are short enough to wander under them without bending. No there’s something happening in the Penguin world and I mean to get to the bottom of it, because as far as I am concerned the only animals that are allowed under vehicles are Cats if they are not moving and Hedgehogs if they are – poor things!

Lastly what are Penguins doing in South Africa? I thought that they liked colder climates – so they are now lurking under vehicles and being seen in warm countries, yes it is all beginning to add up isn’t it…


On another matter – well to be honest it’s the main reason for having a blog actually but of course us bloggers wouldn’t like our unsuspecting readers to know that we are only entertaining them so we can flog something – I need to remind all of you that it’s time to start thinking about buying my soon to be published second book ‘The Cat’s Travelogue.’

Now I know you are going to say that you didn’t expect a Cat to write one book and so two is something of a miracle but consider the miracle performed!

Yes that’s rights the world has seen a real miracle and my second book will be in the shops both real and webbed (as a real paper book or an ebook) very very soon, yes my masterpiece will be in the shops and on not only www.Amazon.com but also my www – wickedly wonderful website here www.thecatsdiary.com in time for Christmas which is just perfect.

I’m sure that I don’t have to do anything other than subliminally mention that my latest book makes just as good a Christmas present as my former one and how nice they will both look in the same gift wrapping do I?

Xmas Holly
Dear cuddly readers and potential book purchasers everywhere I do hope you enjoy what I hope is the first Christmas image you will see this year! May all of your Christmas shopping be without incident.

What’s On The Menu Today?

Is Beijing the only place where you can ask if your Sheep meat was well hung?

China Of course

In South Africa they are taking fusion food to the absolute limit – raped Chicken must be Royal Burgers Jo’burg.

Raped Chicken must be Royal Burgers

Ok maybe we are expecting too much from restaurants that are so far away from home they must serve nice home cooked food in Europe – I hear that the Spaghetti Carbonara is ‘different’ in German and this restaurant is obviously using homemade ingredients – just look at the menu!

Homemade

If those dishes are too ‘exotic’ for your taste then how about visiting a good old fashioned Soda Fountain for an Ice Cream and a Soda? Soda Fountains are nice, homely, clean places and they service ‘normal’ food don’t they? May I recommend good old Butt Drugs Corydon, Indiana.

Being an innocent Cat I wondered if there is any knowledgeable human out there who can tell me what a “Butt Drug” is please?

Butt Drugs
