RANDOM REMINDER
T.H.E. CAT
After the first mad flush of youth has departed women generally go In for dignity in a large way. Her wardrobe will remain smart, sophisticated but dignified. Her furniture will be contemporary but dignified. So will her car. She will ..join dignified clubs and garden circles and play a dignified game of golf.
But how can a woman retain her dignity when she is alone in the house for the night, about to lock up before watching her favourite television programme, discovers that the cat is on the veranda making undignified appeals for its evening meals, attends to the chore, hears the door click shut behind her, circles the house looking for a unlatched window, discovers one on ths
first floor, hauls a ladder from the garage, finds it is too short, puts it on top of a box, scorns the danger and climbs up, wrestles with the stiff window frame, finally has it open, then discovers that she can make no further progress because her dignified modern skirt is far too tight, descends, whips off her skirt, and scrambles up in a state of trepidation and very little else?
