from Batttttty - No pets were harmed or humiliated
during the making of this page.
Their owners, however, were queueing right round the
block to be harmed and humiliated.
That's SITN for ya!

SITN's
TOP DOG is SYDNEY
Sydney is a lot like her master....
not in looks, although there is a certain likeness,
but it's more about ATTITUDE.
Sydney admits it...
Yes, it was Phil's HAT I CHEWED...
and his shoes... and his socks... and his book of UFO lyrics.
Ooops!
So
if you ever go to a UFO gig and my dad's singing different lyrics,
it's all my fault.
I'm the one to blame.
Yes, I'm the one who should be sitting on the naughty-stair.
I'm the one who should be banished to sit under the bedside
table.
Yes it's me. Here I am. I am here.
Please
send messages of sympathy and comfort to
please-give-me-a-new-home@strangers-in-the-night.com

Here
we see Dave Ling of Classic Rock, Metal Hammer, and Dave
Ling Online with young Bob - or "Beelzebob Wolf At
Selhurst" to give him his full Kennel Club name.
You'd have to be quite a writer to keep spelling that out every
time, but luckily, Dave's good at writing - even though he doesn't
keep on and on and on about it
In
this photo, Dave smiles mischievously, as Bob (also smiling
mischievously) prepares to start rippin' the wall to bits
Start
rippin', Bob ma boyyyyyyy

From the out-takes of the Force It photo sessions
we have Martyn's moggy - Jess - whose hobby is tap-dancing.
Here she is, sitting pretty after a night on the tiles.

Here's
Herbie, concentrating hard on his homework from Lesson 1 of
the Dog Obedience Class - which was all about learning how to
climb through the dog-flap which Steve from Wulverammmpton has
chain-sawed with intricate precision into the solid oak kitchen
door.
"Show
me just once more" pleads Herbie, and his master (who has
completed the full course of obedience classes) squeezes through
it for the seventeenth time. It might only be one small step
for an 8-week-old puppy, but it's a tight fit for a grown man
- and Steve emerges with the sleeves ripped off yet another
t-shirt.
But
luckily he knows a place where he can buy more t-shirts to replace
each and every one of them... |
My
beautiful friend Bumblefoot
rescued this furry purry baby from a sewer
after she got stuck there during a flood.
Read the heart-warming
story of Bumbletoe's tumble
and how the humble Mr. Bumble heard a rumble
and stumbled upon her, looking like a bag of jumble, and then
minced up her up and cooked her in a crumble.
(I lied about that last bit of course. Look at his face... Would
he????)

These

This dog apparently takes after his master in a big
way.

Meet
'DRAFTY THE DAWWWGG'
DRAFTY keeps my pal Max warm
on cold winter nights,
whilst at the same time keeping an eye on him.
Any likeness
to one or more of of the
THOMAS
THE TANK ENGINE CHARACTERS
(or to Dougal from The Magic Roundabout)
is
completely incidental and accidental.
Or maybe not.
|
|
|
|
And here
we have FITZ who likes to join in
when Uncle Max practices his bassplaying.
As
we all know, dogs have very acute hearing,
and Fitz seems to be trying to
prevent Max from playing.
SITN can't
possibly imagine why.

Pookie
and Soraya (or it could be Soraya and Pookie)
live in Florida with Tania.
They
look amazingly contented when you consider that
they get no attention whatsover from Tania,
who admits that she comes home from work
and logs straight into SITN and spends all evening online
catching up with the latest events in UFOland.
Obsession?
You decide.

Here's
Benji - 5th August 1993 to 7th December 2008
Benji reached the ripe old age of fifteen-and-a-half, which
is about 326 in human years. Here's a photo of him in healthier
days in the hills behind Barry's house in Ireland.
Barry says... "he was wild, he was willing, but by the
end he was very incontinent. Benji, it was a pleasure knowing
you, pup!"

Oyyyy. What you lookin at?
|
I wasn't really scared... but
... there WERE seven of them
|
|
And
here we have Mr. Big, who is of course named after ex-UFO
member Billy Sheehan.
Cat-lover John Dryland (the Mr. Big at Cargo
Records) is such a big fan of Billy Sheehan that he
regularly tries - but often hilariously fails - to have
his own hair cut in the style of the great BS himself, circa
1982. That's a photo we're saving for another day, but let's
just say, as a clue... 'Hair by Godalmightybloodyblimey'.
Anyway,
click on this photo of Mr. Big to see Mr. Big bigger.

Delores is the Queen of the Deep who keeps Geoff warm
on those long lonely nights.
Geoff
is a dedicated Heavy Metal Kids fan, and probably hasn't even
heard of Sharks - so we've gotta make this caption more tuna'ed
in to HMK.....
OK,
here's one...

OK, here's a clue....
This little beauty is called Pookie - she's no highway lady
-
more a 'hideaway lady'.
And her daddy has always been
a big Kid and is now hitting
all the right buttons.
Got it yet?
No? Why not?
It's been on sale since 2nd June 2003!

Well this little fella looks like butter wouldn't melt in
his mouth, doesn't he.
WRONGGGGGGGGG
Not only would butter melt in his mouth but lots of other things

Here are two photos of Minou - Peter Mondria's prize-winning cat
Sometimes, this jungle life is boring, pawing...

Boots
knows that
Santa won't bring any presents
down the chimbley tonight
unless he keeps his eyes tightly closed.
Boots
darlin, c'mon,
you can open them now... He's
been!
Boots...
Wake upppppp!
Donner & Blitzen!
Boots has done it again, dammmit.
Every year he takes a sly swig
of the sherry which Nigel leaves out
for Santa's reindeer.

salutes ya!

This
scary moggy says..
"You can cover me in roses, put nickels on my eyes....
Oh, I already have nickels on my eyes.
Either that, or I've been spending too long in front of the
computer screen.
But I can't help it... the SITN website is just sooooo damn
goooooood!"
|
Tina
is a coooool cat - well, a coooool dog actually.
Or do I mean a coooool mouse?
Oh it's all so confusing.
But one thing's for sure - she's as crazy as her owner!
Tina belongs to Gilles from France,
who also goes by the name of 'Pete The Mad'.
Yeh... why am I not surprised...

Axeslinger's baby is called Raider, and here he is wearing the pretty
pink scarf which Axey normally wears to the Jets games.
Raider refused to model Axey's purple-sequinned boob-tube on
the grounds that it would clash with his scarlet pvc stilettos.
This dog has style! Welcome to SITN, Raider ma boyyyyyy.
|
|
 |
But....
hold onnnnn a minute. What's this?
Here's
another photo of Raider looking much more dignified (but not
half as well-dressed).
This time he's sharing the stage with Skittles, who is apparently
part Jack Russell and part Spaniel. Hmmmm... would that make
him a Jack Spaniel's? Knowing
Axe, I wouldn't be at all surprised!
I'll
drink to that! |
Dicksy's cats always listen to UFO while they're doing the crossword...

T3DD's cat Mr. Chuck acts as lookout
whilst T3DD's other cat, Waffles (below), gets up to no good....
I'd like to know what was in that packet - Waffles is
starting to look like a rockstar..... |
|
Oh just look at those beautiful soulful eyes and that cute little
nose. Couldn't you just spend all day tickling those pretty
ears ...
The dog aint bad-lookin, either.
Anyway, one of these two must NOT be fed after midnight, isn't
fond of daylight, and its hair must never come into contact
with water.
