Hello Kitty!

hellokitty1

Two bits of trivia I have discovered in the past couple of weeks.I am probably the last on the planet to pick these up, so do forgive me for my tardiness. In my defence, I have been busy praying for the CofE and the new ABC, and knitting hats for merchant seaman and other important stuff.

KACKBut how come I never realised that Krusty Allsorts is the cousin of Cass Kitten?? No wonder there is so much CK stuff lurking around the homes she re-styles!

titlepageWe have lost the warmth of Montelbano’s Sicily on Saturday night TV and are now wearing jumpers, and watching cold, gloomy Scandinavians. In Denmark this programme is called Forbrydelsen which means ‘The Crime’ – but BBC4 calls it ‘The Killing’

What’s bizarre is that ‘Killing’ is the Danish word for ‘Kitten’

[btw, if you want the jumper, you should check out this website]

  5. So C K is a real person? I've often wondered whether she was or not, and Dr Oetker too. So thanks for clearing the CK business up. I might have to go and google the Dr of baking supplies to check he's not a cousin of Krusty too.

    1. I just realised that Doctor Oetker is an anagram of Crooked Otter. [or Cooked Rotter!]
