    Thanks LT...kitty cats have mutual hatred of each other unfortunately and no amount of treats, swapping smells etc seems to make a difference so they are separated until we can find a hope for poppy or a rehoming centre will take her 9th July. Gutting as would have liked her to go to someone we knew..

    Had a lovely couple of days with my "girls". It was their school speech day so the day started with stalls to raise money for charity, then a very civilized lunch in the marquee with champagne provided and then came the speeches, leaving me to surmise that possibly should have had a couple of glasses and then I wouldnt care that the seats were agony! Despite being a very posh school (lots of long hair!) the ethos is excellent with caring, sharing and compassion very firmly on the agenda. Much better than their last school which was more "about oo look at how much money I have" - ie new money rather that this schools old.
    Best bit was spending time with them all before they go. Managed to avoid goodbyes by saying Ill be out to see them soon. Hopefully one the w*** is sorted either way I can go an have a lovely hol with them, sitting by the pool, reading and helping them ascertain which is the towns best ice cream !!!!!!!
