Fayjay, I wonder if Amy the Highwayman's squirrel hatred was the root of Anya's bunny hatred. They both mentioned twitchy noses.
Come on, you just KNOW Joss has memorized Blackadder.
"Baldrick! Thanks for introducing me to an entirely new sensation!"
"What's that, milord?"
"Being pleased to see you!"
Nope, I have absolutely no idea why this anthem was replaced with Yo Canada. I mean, you'd think every group in the country would be delirously happy with it.
Well, O, Canada was originally written in that other language, for that other group not mentioned in that other song.
I've never ever seen a red squirrel.
Ha! At last my claim to fame! I visited Brownsea Island once, and there saw a red squirrel. Very cute, and I haven't gone 'ah!' at a grey one since.
I see British-sounding tourists oohing and aahing over the tree rats in NY sometimes.
...y'know, I also go 'aw, bless!' over the ickle filthy black mice in the tube stations. They're so wee! My friend assures me that they're rats, very small rats, but I'm okay with that. Big rats - not so good. Teeny weeny ones scampering around under the train tracks - fine by me. Until they all come pouring onto the platform and surge towards me baying for blood, at which point the cuteness thing will start to wear thin.

Fortunatly, this doesn't happen often. And never to people who've jumped through chalk drawings in the pavement recently.
There are no squirrels here.
But most pizza isn't vegan, Nilly, (unless I'm misunderstanding you) because the cheese makes it dairy. Most pizza in Israel is vegetarian.
No, Jess, my mistake - I meant 'vegetarian', and thought the shortcut meant the same. Thanks for correcting me. So 'vegan' means 'contains nothing that comes from anything alive' (milk, eggs and the like included)? Or, as my vegetarian sister likes to call it 'nothing that is related in any way to being a mama'? Because if I'm correct this time, I don't think there's anything like 'vegan' pizza in Israel at all.
Thanks, Fay.
My last sentence (even though it was written in ignorance) is still correct: most of Israeli pizzas are vegetarian, none are vegan.
Now you know way more incorrect information about a non-local food than you probably ever wanted to know...
American Robins are different? Coo. We had a robin in our garden last winter. Penny was terribly excited about it, and gushed. It seems our cat overheard, because she left the robin next to her food bowl the next morning as a present for P....
That's so kind of your cat. And think, in the long run, the robins will get smarter!
