Thanks Barbult. I put three images into the thread which is more than I intended on day one, but I needed to practice the method. Finger's crossed it's done right. I showed the first picture to my sister and her immediate reaction was "Is that you?" so I think I got close enough.
A few years ago, I was depressed and consumed massive amounts of chocolate.
I was feeling ill, and called for an ambulance. They checked my blood sugar, and it was several times the recommended level.
I went into the hospital for 2.5 days for observation, etc. I was officially declared to be a Type 2 Diabetic.
I was on insulin and Ozempic for a year or so. Then I drastically cut out my consumption of sweets.
I lost a lot of weight, and don't need insulin any more. My "A1C" level is the same as someone who doesn't have diabetes.
I still take Ozempic. It helps reduce my appetite, which helps me lose weight.
(Sorry for jumping in here, but I saw a conversation about chocolate. I rarely eat chocolate any more, and I miss it.)
I take full responsibility for derailing the Richard conversation into a chocolate discussion. See, we all get off on a tangent. Bad me.
Oh my. Get out the "wet noodle!"
"Luckily you have a girl's bike" Immediately made me think of Blackadder season 2 episode 3 where Captain Rum repeatedly says to Blackadder "You have a woman's ... m'lord" where the ... includes things like his hand, his skin his mouth his legs and his purse, and each one the captain wagers it's never suffered the hardship that happens at sea ( the purse being the funniest IMHO ). I know I'm off topic, I'll get my coat.
Milly has certainly grown. I wouldn't get into a fight with her.
Yeah, she can be a bit scary can barbult if you go off-topic :-D
I was worried I was gonna be told off as well.
Oh, and either the mice have captured Evil Onion, or he left quick-like to escape 'The Wrath Of Barbult'.
I do tend to notice these things, and I hope he's ok!
I think perhaps the mice are enjoying having Evil Onion in their mousehole for a lunchtime treat..
Well I hope not, I happen to like Evil Onion!
It's considered bad form to bump-off the hero. Never fear, with a leap and a bound you will be free as, well, a bird. Perhaps your little bike has some undocumented safety features, such as an ejector seat , although that might make things worse? Much would depend on your angle of launch ( which looks to be about 45 degrees, velocity, and the proximity of the nearest solid object in your flightpath, but look on the bright side, there may be no ejector seat.
[SPOILERS] I can think of at least two books where the lead character was killed in book 1 - the Damiano series by R A Macavoy, and a kinda-zombie series (Newsomething?) by a well known author (which I am not going to read). To say nothing of Beau Geste, where we are told at the end that the manuscript of the book was found by the narrator's dead body.[/SPOILERS]
Not that I am trying to encourage Barbult to follow suit.
Ah I wasn't aware of those books, but yes you're right, perhaps there is some risk. I hate spoilers, like when I went to see Titanic and someone spoiled it for me by telling me beforehand that it sinks. ( sorry, that's old and well worn ).
So the narrator's dead body found the manuscript?!
Naturally, I'm all for the Olympics. And like most (honest) men, watch it keenly for the women in their tight-fitting Lycra. In view of this, one can only be thankful that Richard's sporting debut didn't involve Lycra (especially in such a victorious, paws above head pose like that).
To be fair though, he did land with feline grace, so gets a solid 10 points from me!
On a more technical note, it feels like in the most recent images, Richard has shrunk a bit.
Richard had to lose a little belly fat to fit behind the handlebars of the bike. When he wears clothes, it flattens down his fur and he appears less fluffy. Other than that, I think he is the same size. At least I did not intentionally change his size. There is always the possibility of error, though. Since there is little consistency or reality to these stories, I won't stress over it.
Richard, when you have a minute could you look at the picture of the 'captain' on my 'A view through the mirror thread, it's on the third page., I'd like to use him in my story, but I have to admit he is made from a photo of a celebrity
No one seems to care much about Evil Onion. but I do. I'm not ashamed to say that this statement came as a massive relief to me!
It does suggest he's been stolen, but at least he's not been eaten, so this is very welcome news indeed!
He might have been nibbled a bit though.
Nibbled To Death By Cats
Comedy, not as gruesome as it sounds. I'm sure Richard would never nibble on anyone..
Richard would certainly never nibble on anyone (except the Specimen, which was just seafood in the end anyway). And I'm sure Evil Onion can take care of himself in an encounter with mice. Evil Onion has big sharp teeth. He is not to be messed with!
There is some kind of strange logic there for sure...But now my husband wants to know this: If a bicycle has two wheels and a tricycle has 3 wheels, how many wheels does an Icicle have?
By the looks of it, none. They have a screw thread and dig in to the surface like a mole machine, dragging the poor victim/rider behind the loop through the tunnel behind the icicle.
Regards,
Richard
Oh dear! Richard better stay away from those.
Would somone who rides a pogo stick be called a pogostrian? In the same way that an equestrian, someone who rides horses, comes from equus, the Latin for horse.
Would that mean Richard is an excellent pogostrian in addition to his other talents?
Yeah, I reckon you're right. Evil Onion would be able to look after himself, especally up against a bunch of cheese nibblers!
Couldn't help but notice your other post, though, that bit where you used "Richard" and "Leotard" in the same sentence. Just thought I'd point it out in case you really meant to say "Lola" and "Leotard" in the same sentence!
Sorry barbult for the OT btw, I'll delete the pic if you wish.
Wishful thinking on your part! Nope, it is Richard who needs a nice leotard for Catlympics tryouts. I've been stitching one up for him in Marvelous Designer, but Richard is very hard to fit - or it is my lack of Marvelous Designer skills. Probably the latter.
Let's keep Richard a cat here.
It would be confusing to mix species 9and if the Catalympic team found out they might use it as a technicality to exclude me from the team, despite my obvious merits)
Where will the Catalympics be held? Cat-alonia perhaps?
I'm not sure Richard has thought that far ahead. He is focused on the local tryouts. He'll have to research in more depth, if he makes the team. But your suggestion certainly sounds most appropriate!
