Friday Stuff and Fagin

I was tagged by Sly for the book meme.


Hey Sly, I have that same picture !!!!!



As I have done this,my sisfurs Tillie & Georgia will do it.

It's been a while as they could not agree on a book,heehee


Here are the rules:
1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. We will not tag anycat, so feel free to do it if you like :)

" Very good my lady. I fancy there will be time between lunch and dinner to effect a clearance of the kitchen chimney, provided there is no interference from the police. Would your ladyship wish me to instruct the sweep accordingly?"

From the book "Busman's Honeymoon" by Dorothy L Sayers ( A Lord Peter Wimsey mystery)







Welcome to the Blogosphere Fagin.

We thought you might like to know a few things about your name.

Have fun sailing on the Black Furball with Captain Jack and Sir Dante

I love the Lord Peter Wimsey books. You did some neat research for little Fagin. He has a really special name.

Team Tabby said...

Those are interesting facts about young Fagin's name and he is a very cute kitten.

Those mystery books are the best.

I think Mummy should have put that much thought into my name. I should really have a coat of arms.

The Misadventures Of Me said...

Fagin was loved and accepted by all of us even before we knew he'd stays with Capt Jack and Sir Dante! Him and all the kittens on the blogosphere should have party soon, to celebrate their furever homes! (Any reason for a catnip party is a good one, don't you thinks?)

Diamond Emerald-Eyes said...

Purrs and head butts to you Mickey. It was great that you dug that info out on Fagin's name. That will show show old bat who posted nasty things on their blog!

Nice work tracking down the info on little Fagin. He's a lucky guy to be with such caring humans.

Nice work Mickey.
Smooches to you on this wonderful Friday!

Captain Jack and Sir Dante said...

Oh wow! Mickey, this is just wonderful! Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to do so much research about the little guy's name. We didn't know it was Gaelic - so we guess that he will be an Irish pirate just like Jack!! And the Coat of Arms and Crest are really cool too! Now we know what to put on his personalized pirate flag when he gets older and becomes a full crew member. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Mickey, you are one great kitty to look all that up for little Fagin! Purrs to one handsome and thoughtful panther mancat!

Mickey, that was wonderful! So Fagin means courageous! Which is Purrfect... a courageous Purrageous Pirate! It should also mean a cute little furball!

Daisy said...

Hooray for finding out more about Fagin's name. To me, Fagin means sweet little adorable baby kitten that I love.

That sounds intriguing (I had Mom help with me spell that one!). Mom has read some Lord Peter Wimsey mysteries but it has been a while. Maybe she will pick one up at the library soon and read it to me.
