I had to have an escort to go anywhere until I was finally taken to the security office to get my pass when it was ready. The escort went back to his office, and the pass made and given to me with the serious instructions not to go anywhere except the obvious places to do my job.
I thankfully set off by myself to go back to my office, when I noticed something odd. People were going to their doors and covering the lock combination keys with one hand. I suddenly realised I was in a high security office corridor, and I was not supposed to be there.
I beat a quick retreat to a corridor with which I was familiar, thankfully not meeting any guard. No international incident evented!
1971 - the year I got chicken pox. 
Good job you weren't 'spotted' out of bounds.

Any piccies of her, Jack?
Our Binx weighed in at 5kg at his annual MOT, and we had to have a return visit about 9 weeks later for a little issue that cropped up. He then weighed 5.5kg! Our vet agreed when I asked him if it would be a good idea to put him on the 'moderate calorie' version of the special vet food he has to have to keep urinary stones at bay, especially as he also has bilateral luxating patella. When he sits on my lap I certainly know about it, as my leg goes to sleep as he cuts off my circulation.

Little beauty! 
I'm not one for having photos of myself taken, let alone in plain view for online, but I did make an exception for this one. 
All was created using CraftArtist and a photo.
This came up in my FB memories from this day 2017. Still find it hilarious today.

It’s nice to know that FB/Meta is actually useful for something.

Anne - Aka…nannyanne ((DT)
Hi Anne, I see you found my post on FB. This seems to me to be a more sophisticated version of the old DT forum. Alfred keeps tinkering with it and it’s becoming very easy to use and navigate.

And perhaps CraftArtist? Some of the regulars from Daisytrail are on Facebook. I could always mention this forum in the Group, to see if there is any interest?
Further to my last post…
Pyewacket would do this. He’d sit on the side, slowly pushing something over to the edge, watching us, watching him.
Alfred wrote:LOL. Nice one, Karen!
To be honest, in our household it’s not Binx’s fur that’s the problem. We need a vacuum that can deal with long Karen hair rather than Binxy fur.
And those are lovely photos of cats you posted previously, especially the James Bond kitty. He is gorgeous!

The barman says: "Mate, don't you mean a Cola?"
"No," the man replies, "life is hard at the moment, and I can only just bear it!"
Another original, just composed by me.
We lived in Australia for a few years when I was nobbut a bairn, and I can remember seeing koalas. People often think they are quite cutesy little creatures, but they can be right little beggars!

An original, mine, just now.
I've expanded a bit, to give it more "meat!"
The pub landlady bought an old brass oil lamp in a junk shop.
She got busy with the Brasso and a soft cloth, and was amazed when a genii materialised from the spout.
"Gosh," she exclaimed, being a posh lady, "how did you fit in there?"
"Ah, said the genii " I had to get rid of all my corporeal water."
The landlady said: "I suppose you must be very thirsty."
The landlord came in at this moment, and seeing the genii exclaimed "I have drink named after you."
"What's that?" asked the genii.
"Oh," said the landlord, "a dry djinn!"
Just seen this online. This would be me. However, it is unlikely that goal would be reached.
Just spent 45 minutes on the treadmill. Tomorrow, my goal is to turn it on.

Took me a while to see it, so you need to enlarge it.
Nice, though!
