The munsterlander is quickly returning to normal. The alternative title of this post is inspired by her appearance as she eats. When food is placed before her she puts her head down so that the entire circumference of her lampshade's edge is flush with the floor, covering the bowl. From within come a series of NYUM NYUM NYUM noises - and, is if by magic, when she lifts the lampshade the food has vanished!

As if that wasn't amazing enough, she will shortly turn the food (not gone forever, merely hidden) into a big steaming pile of poo which I'll have to scrape off the lawn in the pouring rain.

Talking of scraping on my hands and knees for the droppings of superior beings, I'm still eight hundred big ones down after a client charged back the wrong payment on his credit card. The bank cheerfully inform me that as it's an uncontested error they'll have recovered it all in, say, a month or so.
