I have a favourite [[Catsmeat Potter-Pirbright|PG Woderhouse Character]]. Aside from that, there's not an awful lot to say; it's all in the userboxes. Peruse them at your leisure.

The notion of printing them on a T-shirt, so I don't actually have to talk to people, is a temptation....

Toodles.

==<b style="color:#EE6945">Impersonation</b>==
{{quote|text=Hello Catsmeat, I had been working on a biography for many months but it continued to get declined.  The common reasons for the declination was that it needed to be written in a more encyclopedic tone.  I finally gave up on the article.  A few weeks ago I received an email (not a message on my talk page) from someone claiming to be a wikipedian editor with high privileges.  She said that she could rewrite the biography in an encyclopedic tone and get it published (for a fee) and referred me to your userpage, claiming that it was her own. I just wanted to alert you because I know that this type of impersonation is happening with other legit editors as well.  Thank you.  <small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/69.126.195.2|69.126.195.2]] 14:52, 20 March 2015</small>}}

'''Yay! Apparently somebody thinks I'm worth impersonating. That sort-of made my day. But be aware I don't do this for money, I never contacted "69.126.195.2", the person who did <u>is not me</u>!'''
