: Re: Curiousity killed the cat - I posted a request in April asking if anyone could remember what the third "retort" was. After much soul-searching and chattting with old friends, we got it:-

: 1st Person: "Curiousity killed the cat"
: 2nd Person: "and Satisfaction brought it back"
: 3rd Person: "to live another day"

: Maybe it's just a Northern England thing, ha ha, guess we like to have the last word !!!!!

That's great. I'll have to remember that...and wait for an opportunity to use it.
