I was completely charmed when I learned the Czech month names, they are so cool. I think I called May "Cauliflower" once or twice, though.

I'm surprised that English didn't go to Oneday Twoday Threeday Fourday Fiveday Sixday Churchday during the Puritan era.

Can't have people thinking about moon gods and such.

I have been told that Welsh days of the week stick close to the Roman gods.

Dydd Sul is Sunday and Sul is Sol (I think)
Dydd Llun is Monday and llun is Moon
Dydd Mawrth is Tuesday and Mawrth is Mars
Dydd Mercher is Wednesday and Mercher is Mercury
Dydd Iau is Thursday and Iau is Jupiter
Dydd Gwener is Friday and Gwener is Venus
Dydd Sadwrn is Saturday and Sadwrn is Saturn

Why Welsh has done this when other languages changed their days I have no idea.

Guys I’ve come back from London to find three cats in my flat. I do not own cats. What is one meant to do in this situation on a Sunday night. One is super friendly and I think maybe related to the smaller one that is tentative but not terrified. There’s also a long haired grey one that seems petrified and has not yet touched the tuna i have left for it in the little hole it’s hiding in.

Turns out they belong to some neighbours but neither of us can work out how they got out of their flat or into mine. I’m relieved but a bit sad as I’d have liked to have some new friends :(

Apparently the structure got so hot that the whole thing might collapse now, which going by the logic in that article is great news for GDP.

Had the same cat situation but with only one cat.
Two floor terraced house, my family were all in watching TV in the living room during the late evening, and we heard foot steps on the floor above us.
As we were all in the room, we instantly panicked, who the gently caress was breaking in.
Heard it come out on the stairwell, and I was pushed to the front to check it out.
And back I saw two cat eyes.
We had a top bedroom window open, a narrow flat one. Impossible for your human, but not for the cat.

I pray to god a cat never gets into ours, I doubt the boy would hurt it if he caught it, but I am certain that roughly every object in the house would get knocked over in the ensuing chase.

I’d like that, maybe you could automate some of my lights while you’re there. If anyone other goons would like to crawl in my hole just let me know hunnies

I’d worry about returning cats but a) the whole thing was quite fun and b) I’m moving next week so they’re welcome to the place. Actually I might have to give my neighbours a secret key in case of further incursions

Be careful about giving cats tuna, might give them steatitis which is very painful.
