    However, about an hour ago I had a phone call from the centre to say that his scar is now infected, he's on antibiotics and so he won't be released until he's seen the vet next Tuesday.

    Add this to my impressively bloodshot left eye which has appeared from nowhere, plus our lovely Siemens Porsche kettle that I dropped and broke last night and it's not been a good couple of days!

    That's terrible news. I love my Porsche kettle.

    Here's a cat picture to cheer you up.

    I've seen that before on many occasions
    I can't go on and I can't go back, I don't feel so matter of fact,
    I tried and tried to make good sense, What's the good to try it all again?

    Thanks, Natalie.

    He's a real little cutie and absolutely dotes on Abella, like she was his mummy! She just sits there and licks his wee head and gives him the odd slap, lol

    Emrys might be a youngster in this life, but I get the vibe that he's an old soul, very happy and wise with it. You can keep your flash stereo Marco. If I ever do get up your way to visit, it's HE I shall want to meet, bless his heart

    good to see them getting on together, sometimes they don't. Hard to work out what is going on in their little heads sometimes

    The antibiotics have done their job, the 'collar of shame' is off and we're picking up Polly and Pippin on Saturday!
