The word is from Middle English and originally meant a dung pile.Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10906087554997612797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222503441854374850.post-54716465181998435902011-12-09T03:32:02.150-06:002011-12-09T03:32:02.150-06:00Great drawings and interesting details, I'm gl...Great drawings and interesting details, I'm glad I've got cats!Cathy Holtomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12510196597713178864noreply@blogger.com
