    Cat how did you get on with the dog show? :D

    Judge was a t**ser. We walked. He paraded and looked at 1 line of dogs (out of 3) and picked all 3 out of that line. Not happy.

    But Oz loved it - the Fete was packed and he got lots of adoration so he was happy.:T

    Ironing all done.

    Setting the wm and then away to bed. Tomorrow's plan:

    Hour in the back garden
    Eat last 3 frogs
    DS3's holiday project
    Sort either the family room toys or DS3 clothes depending on his mood

    Pigpen lovely pic :) Why is she looking so smug?
    I like the frog list (even though I didn't manage all of it :o)

    I have no idea.. she was eating breakfast.. possibly because the little ratbag had me up half the night and OH got up with her at 6am and she was about to go back to bed!!

    Off to bed .. I am absolutely exhausted and we are meant to be having dinner with OH's dad and aunt tomorrow.. (they are handing over his inheritence cheque from his gran which he is wanting to spend on bits for my house.. and I REALLY don't want him to. It feels wrong that he should spend his money on my house.. honestly, I'd rather he saved it or invested it or did something momentous with it.. and not like buying stuff for the baby or Squeak or anything else.. )

    Anyway... bed or I shall be use to man nor beast tomorrow!!
