The longest last day…with added cuttlefish
Well it IS long when you’re long-hauling it across the Atlantic… and so it continues. Apologies for the enthusiasm. This is making me realise that I still write my diaries as though I’m 12. “Had about four hours sleep … Continue reading

Non è Pussibile!
You wouldn’t have thought it was possible, would you, that within a week of Leo’s horrible abcess healing up, he’d have another one? I wouldn’t but then I keep under-estimating the nastiness of Big Ginge. I’m already administering eye drops … Continue reading
Dog training for cat #fail

Cat boxing
This morning’s less-than-eagerly awaited bout of cat boxing was a bit of a surprise. Both cats were looking relaxed and easy watching England v Scotland rugby from opposite ends of the sofa. The cat box had been removed to the … Continue reading
