Okay,

the vaguely disturbing funk I had been in this morning due to reasons I put in a friendlocked entry has been pretty thoroughly dispelled by this article:

LONDON (Reuters) - British detectives are investigating the mystery of a hamster found driving a toy racing car along a promenade at a northern seaside resort, newspapers said on Saturday.

The hamster, nicknamed Speedy, was handed in by a member of the public who found him cruising through Cleveleys, near Blackpool in the modified toy, which he powered by a treadmill.

There's just gotta be something right with your day when there are hamsters running around loose in toy racing cars, man. That's just beautiful.

I prefer the 'hamster sphere' for exercising our lot, because those car things (*) have no directional control (our Syrian hamster can steer his exercise ball with some precision as our cat has learned to his cost).

And on a flat surface, those little blighters can't half get up a head of speed (as again, the cat is painfully aware).

(*) You can buy them in the shops.
