A couple of people were interested in this so here's a reminder.

The first one is being repeated as I type, but you've nearly missed it.

Absolutely brilliant. Not to say educational. Also nice to see Martin as his 
natural self, my admiration of him grows :)

Yup!  I enjoyed the show.  I wonder if anyone will do a similar one about 
the cat.

Well let's hope that it's fronted by someone who knows their subject 
rather than shove a clueless luvvie in front of the camera just because 
his or her face is known. Last night I was treated to the spectacle of a 
wet between the legs trilling tamponette who didn't know the story about 
Walt Rayleigh spreading his cloak over a puddle for Brenda 1.

I bought my dear wife a Burmese kitten for her birthday earlier this 
year. Smoky. Honesty -- a cat that cost a monkey! Every morning it 
watches her in wide-eyed horror as she takes her shower while he waits 
to have his face and eyes cleaned. His expression suggests he's saying: 
"Lookee here, missus. You don't have to get wet, you know.".

That cat is weird. It tries to go with her on walks; she has to shut him 
in the house while she makes her escape.

With the beginning of warm, spring days Smoky took to boisterous 
rocketing around the garden and terrace: mighty bounds executed with no 
thought for where or how he was going to land. We knew that it was only 
a matter of time before he fell into the swimming pool. We weren't too 
concerned; over the years we've had several cats and they've all taken 
pearlers into the swimming pool sooner or later -- once!

Smoky eventually took the plunge with a spectacular Evil Kneival 
bikeless leap and I learned why the Egyptians venerated cats. I don't 
know if they can walk on water but they can certainly run on water. 
Smoky shot across the surface of the pool and ran howling for my wife 
for an hour's comforting and treatment with hot towels.

Last month we used the pool for first time and poor Smoky went mental, 
dashing back and forth, his wonderful green eyes wide with panic, his 
expression seeming to say: "Oh Christ! How the hell do I rescue you two 
idiots!" He made such a fuss that in the end he got the sort of wet 
cuddle that I'd been hoping for.

If there such a thing as reincarnation, I'll try to come back as a cat.

That seems like a wise move.  :)
