    Hi guys :wave:

    mudders hope Stripes is ok, what a shock for you xx and what a nice man helping you x

    Toots I'd marry you in a flash but you may want to think twice after I've just blubbed all over the place reading your list, I need a 'sort yourself aaaaaht' slap x
    mummyof5 awwwwww she's adorable x

    The cat's just been for her first injections and she was very good, poor thing's flat out alseep now, I'm presuming that's normal I forgot to ask the vet about after effects if any. More injections in 3 weeks time then the big spade thing, she can't go out until that's done, poor thing's chomping at the bit to get out, she even answers the door with me in the hope I wont see her and she can nick off.

    So, not done much in the house as yet, I've bought a scraper tho so am just contempleting whether to make a start on it - nah I can't got no food in the house so best go to a shop...*groan*
