    It's council property I'm in MrsTine, so there tends to be no compromise with them, though someone did tell me that a law was passed in 2004 that technically you aren't allowed to disallow people having pets.....thing is people in this building have dogs and all sorts and nowts been said.

    Can't put them in a cattery, well I guess I could but not at such short notice, they both don't have any jabs as I don't see the point since they are indoors, and not sure if they would take the little one since he hasn't been neutered yet?

    My mum couldn't take them as my dad is allergic to them. Think what I'll do is try and get them to come out after teatime, I can stay in the bedroom with the cats and all their stuff, and OH can deal with the dude.

    Now to find a number to call.....

    I think Fritha may not have had anything yet either. (Although I did miss about twenty pages at one point so could have missed something.)

    Sami - it's the volo. I've looked it up and have to confess that I am sorry to see it doesn't appear to recline at all, but I'm not looking a gift horse in the mouth. I plan to test and tes and test it - rigourously! It's Maclarens smallest/cheapest buggy.

    Hadn't thought of holland and barratt. May have to send hubby (there is one near his work). LO needs a sleep I think.....

    Yes I'd say it is... because you don't know if the valves are working properly and it could go horridly wrong VERY quickly

    Ok what I'll do (being sneaky here) Is wait until after 5oclock when the regular phone line is down, and then phone the out of hours/emergency one after we have dinner, they say they take 4hrs maximum to come out.....so I'll go for a kip in bed with the cats and OH can't be all manly and point out the problem.

    There are other things that need doing in the flat, minor repairs, the toilet base needs fixed, the ceiling in my kitchen has big brown patches because the woman upstairs flooded me repeatedly, also the wallpaper is hanging off a bit because of that, I'm sure there are other things but nothing I can't live with.
    Because I hate this house/area so much, I don't really put any effort into decorating the house how I'd like, everything is a bit mismatched, could do with new carpets but hey ho, more important things to worry about than matching furniture :p
