    Oh well, one good thing came out of it though - met a few more of my neighbours while trying to find out who's cat it was.

    It is, indeed, a very sad reflection of 'Modern Day Britain' that few of us, myself included' know, or even talk to, our neighbours. :o:o
    I applaud you for re-uniting the cat with its owner, LATE - that cat was, possibly, the old lady's only companion and, until today, her only 'link' to the outside world. :sad: :sad:
    I hope the cat is okay. Perhaps you could pop by in a day or so - might restore the old lady's faith in human nature. :T

    She survived!!! :cool: I am typing on the laptop as we speak, so not only did the sunshine turn my kids a lovely shade of toasty brown, it dried out the squash!! :D

    LATE, my kids all wear factor 25 upwards, applied throughout the day, but they have still all gone a shade darker - they look they have spent the week abroad, they are so dark! :rolleyes: I'm not good in the heat, but I have evened out my brown bits as well - glorious weather :)
