    The postman knocked on my door this morning with a package. I opened the door and we exchanged some typically British pleasantries regarding the 'lovely weather'. I then answered what i thought was a request for my name. Ed I said, 'cause that's my name. He bent down and stroked our cat "What a lovely cat you are Ed, I bet you're gonna have fun warming your belly in the sun today.", it took a few seconds for me to process what had occurred.

    Before I could correct him, he handed me the package and walked to the end of the garden path with the cat in tow. As he walked through the gate he introduced cat 'Ed' to a very enthusiastic bunch of primary school kids who fawned, like they do, with lots of ahhhs and ohhhhs and cautious stroking. The cat loves this kinda fuss and the general kurfuffle attracted even more kids and mums. There must have been 15 people gathered around our Postman and the cat as he introduced 'Ed' to the street.

    Fast forward to 3:30 and the kids are walking home from the school full of sunshine and youthful spirit and through the open windows i hear 'can we go meet Ed and stroke his belly...he does'nt bite.'

    I'm getting my hearing tested and i'm going to have to change my name :)
