    What sweet little Christmas kitties.
    It seems like men are always harder to buy for. Not to mention that once you get older you really don’t need anything any more and you’ve already bought everything you wanted.

    Buying a gift for The Hubby will be easy this year; he snapped his favorite paring knife blade, so I must order him another.

  8. Wing Commander Basil & The B Team – UK – Well, now there's a question! Furstly and most importantly I'm a cat if mew hadn't already guessed. I got my Wing Commander status in September 2018 but that hasn't slowed me up at all! I tweet, Instacat, FB, Tumble & Pin too and now there's Basil TV on YouTube. All in all I'm a thoroughly Modern Cat; a cat of the 21st century, mew might say. My human & Purrsonal Assistant aka P.A. is Cathrine Garnell, and she writes books including a tale about my fictional alter ego, Basil the Bionic Cat. [See Books Page] I live in a multi-cat household, and mew can meet the rest of The B Team here most days of the week, as they all like a turn on the blog. I like mice, but then don't we all? I also like fresh tuna, chicken and prawns. I LOVE catnip, not in any excess I might add before mew jump to any wild conclusions. Thanks so much for dropping by, as we The B Team, love making new furriends, so do leave us a comment and say hi.
    Wing Commander Basil & The B Team says:

    Buying gifts for my hubby is always puzzling for me. We buy stuff during the year so it’s hard to surprise him.
    We just celebrated our 16th wedding anny with a bottle of champagne and that was fine with me. We didn’t need the hoopla of going out on the town.

    I love your fill-ins, especially #s 3 and 4. Will you still be hosting Awww Mondays?

    Happy Friday! Hugs! 💖
