Ginger and tonic

I'm planning to post more in the next day or so --- as soon as my main computer is back up and running --- about the beach and the vacation etc: but for now, let me just say that Ginger, one of our two cats, is sitting atop a closed laptop, wondering whether to lap up a drink which to the untrained cats-eye looks like water. I offer it to him to see if he wants to take a sip: he sniffs, sniffs again -- and while I am worrying that I'll create an alcoholicat out of him he turns away uninterested.

So the title is, in fact, incorrect.

Yours, refreshed, while Ginger is not,
