if nothing else
Pandora is back to being Pandora, and has been for some time. All the clumps and depression is gone, she's a chirruping, purring, high-tailed princess prone to flopping into a submissive prawn-shape at my feet, doing her trademark 8pm BRRRRRRing thundering dash about the flat, and scrabbling madly at things in tight spots that aren't there but ( Read more... ) -

Has anyone got a copy of Come On Feel The Illinoise they can upload for me? I did actually pay for the album with my own two hands but am having trouble migrating itunes.
