a couple of years back, i was draining oil out of my motorbike. when i
finished, i left the (open topped) oil drum on the work bench in the garage
& went inside for supper. predictably, around 15 minutes later, there was a
huge crash, followed by an almighty yowling, screaming noise.
quite predictably, one of my cats (6 at that stage ) had jumped up onto the
bench, found an unexpected obstacle, hooked his claws over the edge, and
flipped the entire drum of oil over himself. (and the garage floor - which
concerned my dad more)
hand washing a oil drenched, panicked, extremely tough, and combat
experienced, tomcat ranks as on of my lifes least pleasant
experiences.......
