I knew that if anyone could come up with the answer, it would be Siamcat. He/she nevers fails with these teasers.

Thanks from me too, Siamcat. I had come up with all manner of possibilities, but never one that made sense.

Incidentally, are you a Siamese owner. I have had three over the years. They were all much brighter than I am, but had a wee tendency to attack anything on four legs.

Well done Siamcat...that was bugging me!You are a star!

Pipesmoker...had five cats at one point, all strays or offspring of "said "strays.

But, I seem to be severely allergic to Siamese Cats...can not go near them...within minutes my eyes puff up and sneezing...strange!

Take care all

Hi, Pastille,

Glad to learn you are a cat person. One trick the Siamese were particularly good at, was to wander round a roomful of people, and determine who was most afraid of cats, and to decide to settle on that person's knee for the evening. Great to watch. Embarrassing, though, when one got into the next door numpty's fridge, and nicked his chicken.

Keep up the humour. We need it.

Just been to sunny Glasgow, exercising my OAP right to free travel on the 'bus. Now need some crossword therapy to bring me down to earth.

Best wishes.

Hi P&p

Yes, have had 3 glorious siamese cats, I just love their wicked sense of humour. As you say, they can spot a non-cat person a mile off, and have a very "What me? noooo" look when caught doing what they oughtn't.

At present we have a rescued, long-haired German Shepherd, so no cats for now, but I do miss them.

Thanks, Siamcat. Maybe just as well. One of mine attached himself to the throat of a German Shepherd, and just hung there and swung there. The owner wasn't best pleased. I was sorry for the dog, though.

Another one was a terrible thief, and used to bring in brushes and things like that. It would have been a bit daft to go knocking on doors to see if someone had lost a brush, so I just kept it. Sadly, when bringing home a trophy, he couldn't differentiate between a juicy rabbit and a fat rat.

I'd better sign off now because I could haver on all night.
