Earning a fair Guinea

Tom,

I seem to recall that the saying "to put the cat amongst the pigeons" originates from when the Romans used to release birds for Caracal's to catch, one of the animal attractions of the arena. I expect that someone will now put me wrong and shatter a belief of many years.

I just saw it and thought... Wow! What a spectacular pussy... and I don't see so many of those these days... :lol:
