  • Afternoon all, I am shattered :rotfl: after a week off one day has killed me.. BB, glad things are improving hope they carry on. Toto, sorry to hear of your son leaving but as one door closes.... Didnt one of teh girls say he was taking over his room :confused:

    Anyways just thought I would update you and Oli has gone to live with my sister and her husband. Thomas was so distraught and had stopped eating since Oli arrived. He would sit outside the window watching Oli play and was so depressed. I had put them together both days but Thomas isnt good with other cats (from his start to life) and it just didnt work out. I suppose I could have given it more trys but to stop him getting stressed I decided Oli had to be rehomed. He has gone to my sisters and she doesnt work full time and they stay up real late so he will stay as a house cat. She is going to reimberse me the cost of him and all I have spent out on him which is fab. To be honest I dont think I will miss him, I hadnt bonded with him yet. He is only up the road so I can still go see him. Thomas is now zonkled out on my bed and he has eaten at last :T

    Oh and the big bird bag arrived, its amazing, not too big either. The quailty of workman ship is amazing too. Totally worth the £20 I payed for it inc shipping.

    Anywas back to being busy :rolleyes:

    Very glad your BIL is doing well Buffy.


    You only need to look at my current Facebook status (and subsequent reply) to see I have a friend like this too. :mad:



    Edit - Arrgghh, I jinxed myself - I answered the phone without screening, and it's her!!! :rotfl:

    Funny Snags, I saw that and thought 'who does she think she is! :eek:' but felt v uncharitable about it as obviously I don't know her! :o
