    idiots across the road were letting fireworks off till about half one this morning.

    I'd forgotten about that....we had them until 11pm. Luckily the cats aren't bothered - they rush to the window to have a look, but if I had children or pets that were woken or disturbed by them I'd be even more annoyed. How can people think it's ok to make such a noise late at night?

    It is actually illegal to let off fireworks after 11pm so I would advise getting in touch with your Council's enviromental dept

    Hey Bargainbird - He's home from hospital, i spoke to him today briefly, it's kinda upsetting though, as we all know he'll never recover. I've got 2 weeks off in November so will book a trip up to spend some time with him.


    Oh yeah, I dyed my hair yesterday, medium brown with the bottom layer a deep purple and i love love love it!

    Will try and get one later/ find some of the ones taken last night :)

    We had our local bonfire night thingy yesterday - i'm glad we trained pup to be a gun dog, the only thing he's scared of is the hover! It's peace of mind that we know he won't go nuts if left alone when fireworks go off.
