Cats are, of course, unique and irreproduceable, but I think you've made a great stab at it!

There's a small chance that you might be aware of the fact I like cats. Well, I have been asked to create a number of poses for some 3d modelled cats so the user can have a library of ready made poses to use easily and tweak quickly to get what they want. So, trying to oblige I have come up with a few inspired by our cats. Here are the promotional images showing the poses. The cat model is the best cat model so far, I know it's not got all the fluidity of real cats, but I don't think anything can replicate that yet. First the cat model on his own: Then with a spine twist that only cats can manage: Twisting their human around a little claw: And a final one where the cat's standing on his hind legs and has been morphed into a sort-of Maine Coon: If nothing else, I hope they raise a smile.

Summer (It's horrible being supportive sometimes. The number of snacks we're buying has dropped dramatically even though I've only stopped eating a few. Makes me wonder just how many Tracy & Enya were having while I'm at work. Tracy's given up crisps, chocolates, cereal breakfast snack bars & Kipling's cakes. Enya's started cooking a few cakes for herself to make up for the lack.) Regards, Richard

That is like a fantasy creature. I never knew anything like it existed. Regards, Richard

Yes Boss(es). I do fell ridiculously tired at times, I must admit, and that may be due to a low level of it happening most of the day. Regards, Richard

What an amazing creature! So beautiful, and I won’t hold its slug-ness against it as it is in the sea (and not my garden). Love to think its ancestors once flew in the air before giving it up for marine life.

Not sure if this makes me smile in the usual sense, but it does in that it is such a joy to find that there are these incredible creature out there! Meet the Blue Dragon sea slug. (And for great cuteness look up the sea bunny. Yes, there is such a thing.)

hot (with cream and tiny marshmallows, yum) (sorry Richard.... I do really appreciate your support of Tracy's dieting! It's just that I've been trying to do without any inter-meal snacks for the past week and like you my mind is beginning to protest.)

What she said!!!!

Good for you being supportive. It is said that very dark choc — only a square a day — is good for those losing weight. But, alas, that rules out fruit and nut bars.

Amazed and relieved, I suspect. Just do as you’re telt, ok?

I had a chat with the doctor yesterday about my pounding heart. If the same thing recurs for more than 3 minutes I am to 1) take a trace on the ECG thing I have and 2) Dial 999 (not necessarily in that order). Apparently having it for 11 hours on one day and 6 on the next is classified as a VERY BAD THING. I then had to have blood extracted for so they can check for everything including the presence of kitchen sinks in my blood (stainless steel ones contribute to iron levels I believe). They want an official ECG trace, Friday is the earliest they can manage. So, our GP practice is doing something. I am deeply amazed. Regards, Richard
