    Evening everyone
    Sorry but been AWOL - lots of busy bee stuff happening here and kiddies were away for a week so DH and I had a lovely time chilling at home in the peace and quiet, we now have the neighbours from hell who think its ok to party in the back garden till late with lots of swearing going on - blew my top last night at about 20 to 12 so a call going to their Landlord tomorrow to vent some feelings at them [its not the first weekend we've had spoiled by them] I feel that I can't even sit in my lovely garden and enjoy it in the evening when the sun sets cos of them and its now starting to get me down but on the good side - DH has now been given the all clear - they have no idea what was wrong with him but all the pains and lumps and bumps are gone so thats really good.
    I've just noticed that its gone quiet out the back so I'm off to grab a wine and sit and chill for a bit

    Pigpen - hope the heat isn't getting to you too much
    Toots - hope you had a nice retreat and that you're ok
    Diva and L-L - hope you are both ok

    LW - I've PM'd you

    See you all tomorrow

    Helen

    2 male furries are back in the huge cage now it's all scrubbed out and clean - they are having fun exploring. They have a hammock now which appears to be great fun! Little babbies are getting their fur - now looks like 4 black, 2 brown, 2 grey but that may change! And only one appears to be a boy atm .........

    It's very hot here - too hot for sleeping but I am tired.

    Need a list before bed though ...........
