Zzzzzzzzzz!

Hmmm? What? It’s time to wake up? Why? Is it breakfast time? Ow! Stop hitting me Scratchy!
Hi! I’m Smokey. If you don’t have something for me to eat, I’m not interested. And if you stroke me for too long, I’ll get grumpy. I can bite, OK? Can I go back to sleep now? Ow! (Scratchy again.)
What’s that? Scratchy says if I give you some homework I can have some food. We’ve got a deal!
I think Jo went to the shop to get me some more food. She says: In my last blog I told you about question tags. Can you complete these phrases with the correct question tags?
1) Naheed is a talented artist, __________________?
2) Naheed draws beautifully, __________________?
3) Today is Saturday, ________________________?
4) You are good at English, ___________________?
5) I am quite a grumpy cat, ___________________?
OK where’s my food? I’d like to chat some more, but I have to catch up on my beauty sleep.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Smokey
Vocabulary
Zzzzzzzzzz! The usual way in English to show that someone is snoring and, therefore, is asleep.
Ow! Like ‘Ouch!’, you can use this interjection when something hurts.
stroke means ‘to touch gently’, usually by sliding your hand over something.
If you’re grumpy, you’re in a bad mood.

Hi Smokey, I am still in the attic and before going downstairs for a walk I will try to answer to the questions tags. 1) isn’t she ?, 2) doesn’t she ?, 3) isn’t it ?, 4) aren’t you ?, 5) aren’t I ? I think Jo wanted to catch us with the last one, doesn’t she? As all of them where negative I was wondering if there was any hidden trick I am probably a little bit paranoiac. Well I send you a virtual fish croquette. Do not sleep to much otherwise mice will be tired (because of playing too much)
Hi Smokey. This is my first comment in Jo's blog. I want you to tell her that I ejoy reading her writting, but that I'm a little bit lazy about writting myself, and also a little shy whith beautiful women like her. Well, about the homework, I think the answers are: 1)Naheed is a talented artist, isn't she? 2)Naheed draws beautifully, doesn't she? 3)Today is Saturday, isn't it? 4)You are good at English, aren't you? 5)I am quite a grumpy cat, aren't I? I'm not disturbing you any more. Sleep well.
How is going ? How about your day Scratchy ? You may be catch some ZZZZZ all day when you have some of food ahead of meal and after. Claim down !! You should wander with teacher Kent when she is free. Keep more excrise !! Anyway I would like to answer the homework. 1) Naheed is a talented artist, isn't she? 2) Naheed draws beautifully,doesn't she? 3) Today is Saturday, isn't it? 4) You are good at English,aren't you? 5) I am quite a grumpy cat, aren't I? That are all my answers. I hope you reduce weight. That mean you will test a lot of food that teacher Kent feed you forever.Take care.
Hello teacher Kent . I hope you will get this message. To be honest I would like you to change habit's SCRATCHY in term of eating too much. If you feed a lot of foods at this stage, SCRATCHY may died of any disease in some day. LOVE YOU LOADS.
Oh, Smokey, Smokey, why did you let Scratchy interrupt your beauty sleep, hm? She is not good to you, but you don't let her upset you because you are much prettier than she is, OK? You have done your share of duties, and now you can go back to sleep, because we wouldn't like your beautiful silvery-brown, soft hair lose its shine, now, would we? Nooooo, we would not......! I think I can hear you purring, so quickly, before you doze off, I would like you to pass this comment on to Jo: I am not very good at riddles, so I will not even try guessing this one. What's more, I know little about London, that's why I frequent this BBC website to learn more about England. I've got that hot summer feeling because my best friend is coming from Holland where she lives. Every her summer visit brings tears to my eyes, the same way when she comes here and when she goes away. Danijela, if you are reading this, I want you to know that I'm with you in my thougts always. Jo, who is the person you miss the most and would like him or her close to you always, or you already have it there? P.S.Jo, let me know if Smokey passed the above comment on to you. I'm just joking! I know she/he will carry out my request!
Hi, Smokey. You seem to have beautiful fluffy hair, don't you? I wanna stroke you but I don't have any food for you. I've been bitten by a big cat once before. I'll confess I'm a bit scared of big cats. Don't be grumpy, OK? I'd better answer the questions, quickly. < (1) isn't she (2) doesn't she (3) isn't it (4) arn't you (5) arn't I > Smokey, well done! Sleep tight and have yummy food dream!
Hi Smokey!!! Aaaaaah! You are so cute! And don´t worry, I´m not going to touch you :-)! Hmmm... hey! Come on Smokey... wake up! So, what am I going to say?... Ah! I think Smokey, that you could form a pact with Raffles and any other Jo pets in order to give a good lesson in Scraty the cat. My goodness, she really likes to smack you all.I know, I know, she´s the boss, but she´s too aggressive, I think she has some problem, don´t you think so? Maybe Scraty needs a shrink to help her to deal with this aggressive behaviour. Oh! My imagination is going to far!:-) Ok, it´s for the homework now! 1-Naheed is a talented artist, ins´t she? 2-Naheed draws beautifully, doesn´t she? 3-Today is Saturday, isn´t it? 4-You are good at English, aren´t you? 5-I am a quite grumpy cat, aren´t I? Well, it was a pleasure to meet you Smokey, and I´m looking forward to hearing about where Jo going to go on Sunday. Best wishes, Ana Paula.
Wow, I am afraid of mouse,whatsoever, I also find i am scaried by this big black thing.Smokey? A Cat? Are you kidding?Here is my answers,Ms/Mr.Smokey(She is a big one,bigger than Scratchy)Naheed is a talented artist, isn't she?Naheed draws beautifully,doesn't she?Today is Saturday,isn't it?YOu are good at English, aren't you?I am quite a grumpy cat, aren't I?Yep, You are.
Hi dear Jo ! I hope you 've had a good time with your friends ! when you say you are very busy , I know what you say because I 'm off to have some guest tomorrow ( my brother in law with his family ) for a few days and I 'm very excited about it , too . In my country we must be very hospitable although they was our close guests . Those are some bad customs that we must give up . How are your customs in reception ? Specially when they are going to be your guest for a few days ? Naheed has done her homework very well so I think it dosen't need to write it again . Have fun and see you again
Hi Smokey, Oh... you already slept?? No, with Scrachy around, you can not sleep, I know, because of my previous experience of playing frisbee with her, Scratchy is really nasty. But we can be friends, can't we?. "Oh what did you say, you actually like me", that's great..! So now when we are now friends, can you do me a favour, please ask Jo, about my doubt wheather ain't and aren't are the same? and in return, I will request Jo, to keep Scratchy away from you, and let you relax, the way you want. So we have got the deal. Meantime, i will finish the homework. (1) Naheed is a talented artist, isn't She? (2) Naheed draws beautifully, does,'t she? (3) Today is Saturday, isn't it? (4) You are good at English, aren't you? (5) I am quite a grumpy cat, aren't I? Cheers and bye Smokey, Manas.
Hello. I am sorry for misconception in term of seeing Smokey like Scratchy. I return to read again. And I find that it is my fault. Please forgive me !!
HI Smokey,You looks like very gentle cat. Your answer is: 1. isn't she? 2. doesn't she? 3. isn't it? 4. aren't you? 5. aren't I? Thank you.
1) Naheed is a talented artist, isn't he? 2) Naheed draws beautifully, doesn't he? 3) Today is Saturday, isn't it? 4) You are good at English, aren't you? 5) I am quite a grumpy cat, aren't I? Jo, I don't have pets, so somehow I don't enjoy the over-involment of pets in your discussions. Sorry about this, but can't we discuss some other topics like music, movie etc. This is just my suggestion, I like your writting style. Though I started late I have gone through all your blog entries. More than grammar I learned so many new words (thanks a bunch).
Hi Smokey! You're gorgeous! I will take your sleep as an example I am going to spend my sunday having a relaxing nap. Give my regards to your friends Scratchy and Raffles. See you!
