La Gata Encantada

La Gata Encantada is the name of a pub in a novel by John Varley. It means 'the enchanted cat'. I like cats, so I stole the sign (it just needed some revarnishing and - Look! Good as new!). The door is open, to an amber glow and the sound of music and good fellowship. Come on in.

Name:

Pure as a virgin and cunning as a rabbit!

Words for the Day

Careen - to tilt sideways like a ship, sometimes on dry land

Career - to travel wildly in one direction

And my new favourite phase:

"And then it'll all be sweet as honey from the rock"

(Purloined from my sister, who nicked it from Christina Rossetti's "The Goblin Market".)
