can you get rabies from cat bites????

Big Mumma phone home - Cheryl attacked by cat .... hand red and swollen .... she's trying to lick her bum after going wee's .... and when she looks at me she's purring ... Help ... she no can talk now! I'm feeling so alone, and its all about ME ! ... Should she capitulate to the dreaded lurgy, will send home in box. Please send replacement.

Real sory is that she was at work today, and was trying to introduce a street kitten (yes, I know it was only supposed to be children) .... to an untrained immature rotweiller who has never met another species from the animal world. Didn't go so well I guess. She had it all wrapped up in a towell, so it could not scratch, but it found other means of attack .... Killer Fangs .... razor sharp, 1/4 inch long. So she took to standing at tap to bleed it out when Linda told her that she'd been attacked same way 12 hours prior, so I guess she has a bit longer left with us .... Hope she makes breakky tomorrow, or I will be lonely.

Attended to with all the anti-everything things that we packed ... and Headed out on the trusty bikes again. Cheryl, of course, it's AL:WAYS her!! ... gets down the road and her pedals, no pedal at all ... so we crash into the gutter ... feeling really safe now cause we have lights on our bikes. Little man from house/shop/business/dining room (it's all one here) came out and fixed for us .... so kind ... Back home, no-one would do that, they'd just drive by and say Ha - there's Cheryl on a broken down bike!

Over the bridge we went again, the rivers gone down a bit again now, but it's sooo brown, and have a most wonderful dinner, then pedal back again to our eclectic Fawlty Towers home. Out comes everyone to greet us, pack up our bikes, make sure we are OK, help to put the chains on the bikes, then I ask if someone would go to my room and fix hot water (I've been having cold showers allweek, but didn't know, cause its been so hot) ... and Cheryl's air-con ... for about the 88th time in the week.

Did find out some goss tonight though ... it will flood here, while we're here ... a few times, apparently .... we're about 1 k from the river, but the only hill there is around here is the bridge that goes over the river ... so ....... we gunna get wet!! ... When it floods, just like home, everything on the ground floor goes up .... and we're UP ... and it's already a bit crowded ... Oh something else ... was sitting on the verandah today and looked down the hall at the lights in the roof .... they just attach light to cables, and one lot of cables must have come through in the wrong spot, so they've just pulled more cable through the ceiling and tacked it up when it should have come through ... Electric cables drip in the rain! Things short out all the time, dear me what's it going to be like in a flood? Workcover would have a field day .... and this is a good place!

OH ... HAPPY FATHERS DAY TOMORROW TO BOTH OUR DAD'S .... see we didn't forget!! It's fathers day there now ... we're three hours behind. but won't distrub you in the middle of the night, you both need your beauty sleep. And you'll be pleased to know that neither of us have found a sugar daddy yet!! :o)

Been here a week now tomorrow ... the most amazing week, feel so alive again. No deadlines, no roadrage, no hurry .... no cares .... NO DIET .... just the opposite I think, for all the riding, we're eating so much!!

OK That's it ............. lover to all .... from both of us .... xx

PS we know people are looking, but no-ones talking back .... please say hi or something!! someone ........ sometime .... (just sooking now)
