Picking two of these up Thursday morning fingers crossed! 'Dog Eating Catfish.'

If you ever find yourself short of dogs, I'm sure they'll make do with a couple of those weird, overweight cats you're always banging on about.

Several 6 inch scratches across my chest received last night might suggest you are right! ...shame the 'Dog Eating Catfish' I'm picking up are only 2 inch.



He's still only a kitten! 9 months now. When I used to open the fish tank lid to feed the fish he'd sometimes jump in. He growls too.

You want to get a big basket for that cat. It seems to have outgrown the sink.

He's 11lbs, I went to a breeder friends last weekend and their biggest male is 24lbs.
I'm not actually sure they make very good pets, they are very loving and quite nervy cats but they can be very destructive. First time I saw one I quizzed the owner on the legality of them and even now I sometimes wonder if they should be legal to own!

I hear Sky Sports are no longer going to show Championship matches from next year, although there's rumours that Premier Sports will pick these up.

These clubs need all the money they can get and no longer been able to tell sponsors they are shown on Sky to X amount of viewers will be a big blow.

Can anyone recommend a decent (real ale) pub in Ossett? Not one of my usual stomping grounds, so any good suggestions would be much appreciated. Ta.

The Old Vic on Manor Road - my local. A cracking pint of various Ossett beers plus a couple of guests, and decent snap to boot.

You can get the first round in.

Thanks for that. Will give it a go later this evening. I'll look for the bloke at the bar, thumbing through the OED...

Not tonight - I've just got back from standing in a cold, wet field in Stanley, watching my son train to be the next Danny Brough; I'll take my OED at home tonight, with a warm cuppa!

Enjoy.
