Hello Tweeple,
Time for a Weekend Web Waffler update, I haven't done one lately, so will go back a couple of weekends to that of Children In Need.
.
Starting on the Friday, we had a "Wear yellow to work day" in support of Children In Need. I wore a great yellow jumpsuit dress and a Pudsey Bear bandana, one of my bosses took things a bit too far and came to work dressed in a banana costume! Ha! We also had sponsored Pudsey Bear biscuit eating all day too, not sure I ever want to see or eat another one again!
.
It was great fun though! As was "Pink" day for Breast Cancer Awareness month. On that day we all wore pink, and ate & drank nothing but pink food & drink all day. Pink Panther wafer biscuits and strawberry milkshake for brekkies that day!
.
The evening was a work charity do, also held to raise money for Children in Need, I had the pleasure of Salsa dancing with Pudsey Bear! He's quite a mover, we danced two dances, one Salsa and the other to Ricky Martin's "Shake Your Bon-Bon" and we did!
.
Later in the evening there was a charity auction, and I got talked into Auctioning myself to give a Belly Dancing lesson, really surprised at how popular it was, it raised £1000 and equally surprised that in the end it was 6 men and 4 women who all bid £100 each for the lesson.
.
I was a bit worried about the 6 men at first, but it turns out that the lesson is for their wives and girlfriends, although they do want to watch! hehe Still trying to arrange the lesson, to get everyone together at the same time, at the rate it's going I'm going to have to record a lesson!
.
I suffered the next morning though, with a Tequila hangover! It was all Pudsey Bears fault, he was a bad influence on me, kept challenging me with Tequila slammers! The last I saw of Pudsey he was tap dancing down the road, singing "My Way"
.
I hope Pudsey didn't have the same hangover symptoms as me! I felt numb all over and my teeth felt soft. Managed to stagger to the shop later in the day for some cans of coke (Excellent hangover remedy, thanks Vicki) Glad there were lots of fences to sit on walking back, shame about the splinter though!
.
The rest of the weekend was spent recovering, relaxing and generally chilling out! LOVE weekends!

Here's a little memory of Children In Need - http://bit.ly/70xhQw Enjoy!

Time for a waffle from me, instead of Mr Tigs for a change!
.
This weekend has been great, I went to a brilliant Halloween party on Friday night, did plenty of dancing, too much drinking & surprised two taxi drivers by going to the party dressed as a vamp!
.
Woke up Saturday morning with a pumpkin in bed with me, I must have taken it upstairs with me and put it on the bed when I got undressed, it was rather scary waking up with it staring at me!
.
Things got even more bizarre when I could only find one of the shoes I had been wearing that evening, I thought I had turned into Cinderella for the night, but alas after hunting high and low I found the shoe in the laundry basket of all places!
.
Saturday was spent mostly with a hangover (All my own fault I know) I'm never touching Pumpkin cocktails again! Saturday evening for me was the final of eight nights of Mosthaunted live Halloween special and twitter! Roll on January 2010 for the next Mosthaunted live event!
.
I didn't have one person knock at the door for trick or treat, I ended up eating the maltesers I had brought for them. Naughty but nice!
.
Sunday, a nice relaxing day, yummy Roast Chicken, and yes Mr Tigs was sniffing around for some! Followed by Baileys ice cream! Yum.
.
Back to work tomorrow, still it's only five days until the next weekend.....

I think she's finally lost it!!!
.
It's me again, Mr Tigs blogging on the weekend this time. I have no idea what my owner Jules is playing at, but she changed the time on all the clocks last night, she put the time on them all back an hour.
.
I've no idea why she would do this, I have a feeling it was so she could have a long lie in, but that would make her serving me my breakfast an hour late! So I decided to trick her! After she finally went to sleep, after playing with her new mobile phone for hours (Rolls eyes, Humans!) I crept upstairs and changed her bedside clock back to the correct time, laughs!!!
.
Then when the clock beside her bed said the time she normally gets up, I did all my best tricks to wake her up! firstly loud meowing, then I scatted around the room, I then jumped on the bed and purred loudly near her face, then I had to nudge her with my paw, sometimes a little nibble at her ankle wakes her up, she finally woke up!
.
And result!!! She got up mumbling something about only just feeling like she had closed her eyes, (She hadn't been asleep long) And served me my breakfast. After that I went back to bed, well why not? Its Sunday after all!!
.
As for Jules, she looked surprised when she saw the clock downstairs was different to the one beside her bed, stood scratching her head in puzzlement for a bit, then went back to bed. She couldn't go back to sleep though, she was now wide awake!
.
Humans do the strangest things sometimes!

Let me introduce myself, my name is Mr Tigs.

I've finally managed to get the computer to myself whilst my owner Jules is at work. I thought it would be much more interesting for you to read my blog! I lead a jet set lifestyle, I am to the cat world, the James Bond of felines. They call me Bond, Mr Tigs Bond.....

Here is my diary for the week:

Monday - Fishing - In the neighbours pond two doors down. I caught a whopper! (Extends paws demonstrating the size of the fish, in a dramatic over estimation)

Tuesday - Poker - Felix, Garfield & Bagpuss popped round for a game.
(I won loads of WHISKAS Kitbits!)

Wednesday - Bin Day - Although Jules feeds me plenty, its still nice to have a rummage before the bins are emptied, its a dangerous game of skill before the dustcart comes to empty the bins.

Thursday - Bird Watching - It takes a lot of skill, planning and sneaking around, hiding behind plant pots etc.... (One day I will catch one!)

Friday - Felix Stag night - Taking place in Garfield's garden, he has a pond there so we can drink lots of fishy water! We are having lots of cat nip too!

Saturday - Date with Sheba - I'm looking forward to this! Taking her out for a night on the tiles, hoping to sneak her in through the cat flap afterwards!

Sunday - Cooker Watch - I'll hang around the house today, in case there is a Roast Chicken dinner in the offering, I'll be able to sniff the air whilst it's cooking & I might get the chance to run off with the cooked Chicken if I distract Jules!

I'm off for a preen & a snooze marathon now! Then its time to position myself by the front door & look cute so Jules doesn't suspect that I've been up to anything I shouldn't have been when she comes home!

Welcome to my blog! I hope to dedicate it to brilliant weekends. Once I've worked out how to actually work the blog that is! So please do bare with me for a while.

What is it that I love so much about weekends you may ask? Well I've always loved them. I remember when I was little being excited about the weekends, looking forward to Saturday morning TV, especially TISWAS, having a late breakfast, going shopping, meeting up with friends & family, having a take-away for tea, watching The A-Team, Knight Rider, The Incredible Hulk, Wonder Woman etc etc ......

It's still the same for me now, except the TV programmes are different of course! I don't bother much with breakfast TV anymore (They should bring back TISWAS!) but Saturdays for me now are either spent socialising, dancing relaxing or watching Strictly Come Dancing & The X Factor when they are on. I'm glad Brucie is still presenting on Strictly, that is definitely a memory from my younger years watching the Generation Game.

Its that feeling that gradually builds up during the week, Starting from Manic Monday through to reaching fever pitch on a Friday evening, weekends are just so brilliant!
