Must be a well trained cat.
I tried taken my cat for a walk in Chester Rd Cemi.
She just dug her claws into the grass and looked at me as if to say dont ever do this shit to me again.

I used to know a bloke who was health Ombudsman in Stockton, who moved down to Huntingdon to do the same job. His patch covered a big chunk of the Fens.

After a few months I went down to see him. Huntingdon was as dead as a doornail. We're in a pub with about three other customers, and I ask him, what's the most common medical problem you have to deal with down here then?

"Inbreeding, " he says.

He wasn't kidding. The local docs had loads of congenital defects to deal with. Not much to do in the Fenland in winter....

Not that strange, there is a lecturer here who walks his cat through the city centre on a lead.

I used to take my Cat for a walk, where I lived I had a back yard then a lane followed by the back garden. I would walk up/down the back lane or walk around the back garden and said cat would follow me. (No lead required).

It's a bit like Hartlepool all my mates here have never lived anywhere else and think going to Cambridge is a big deal such as same as Newcastle
