Albert (The Story of Fester Cat)

Albert was a friend of Paul Magrs and his partner Jeremy. He was dismayed at the fact that Panda could walk and talk, and was embarrassed to talk to him. Albert thought that Paul and Jeremy looked after Fester Cat the way they did because they wanted a "child substitute".

He worked for the public sector, and later, the private sector. (PROSE: The Story of Fester Cat)

Biography
When he took a job (head of research - involving outcomes and outputs) at one of the universities in Manchester, he paid Paul and Jeremy in their home in Levenshulme, where he disapproved with a lot of what Paul and Jeremy did with the place. Albert left late that night, taking a taxi to a city centre hotel. Months later, he attended Paul and Jeremy's Christmas party in 2006. He visited Paul and Jeremy a few months later, and in an odd attempt to cheer them up (Jeremy had been given an unfair amount of work to do by his boss), and Albert told them how the "world economy was about to tank". Albert also visited Paul and Jeremy when Paul held a Sunday lunch in 2012. (PROSE: The Story of Fester Cat)
