On a lighter note..

Pot, on the other hand, is oblivious to the death and destruction across the Tasman, and spent the day exploring the cobweb-ridden roof of our house.

I know it's a crappy photo, and rule number one of blogging is not to attach crappy photos, but it makes me smile. She's like "What's everybody looking at?".

And for those of you with broadband, another cat making me smile is Maru. Maru is a scottish fold cat which is actually quite a munted breed, but incredibly cute. She does crazy things with boxes - I just watched this video again and I actually laughed out loud. It is generally quite funny, but becomes hilarious at about the 4 minute 20 second mark.

Enjoy.
