I didn't see that - what channel was that on?

Erm, okay....!

So, tomorrow, we are getting two kittens.....! Well, they're 9 months old, brother and sister pair, lovely but very nervous around humans due to being strays but, I'm hoping with perseverance and food bribes, they'll be cuddling up soon

I'm excited! And a little nervous - I'm definitely a dog person, but as both me and DH are out all day, this is the best thing. I am looking forward to it, just hope they like it at our house

Obviously spends are going to go up a bit, but still trying to keep things plodding along!

Eeee!

It was on UTV at 19:30, so it was probably on ITN at the same time.

Congratulations on adopting the kittens!

:j:j:j:j Popped in to see if the news was out and ....

You'll probably get loads of advice from the rescue but PM me if you need any help - if you've got one room where they could be for a couple of days until they feel secure, that would be ideal.

I adopted Smudge as an adult ...... I literally never saw him for over 3 weeks - he hid under my bed. The only way I knew he was OK was that food was being eaten, water drunk & the litter tray used!:eek:

He did come round and was really cuddly - the trick is to let them come to you ... they are very curious!

Re food, litter, accessories etc - this site is great http://www.zooplus.co.uk/ free delivery over £19, which is much less than a lot of them (and they will leave if you're not in), loads of choice and nearly always the best price (but there are others that I check / use) and 5% cashback .....:T

Pics needed ASAP!:D

I'm excited! :j we've bought a bed and a scratch post and some food already that the rescue said they were on

I'll try and remember to let them come to us....

I'll also try and pictures, if they're not hiding!

what a shame but best arriving safely

Awwww pants!

I've just had a hairy in places journey so can understand ...... it was only the fact that it's supposed to be worse tomorrow & I'm back at work on Mon that I went!

Fingers crossed they're home soon

I know, it's better that they arrive safely, I'm just disappointed

Off to the cinema later to see Les Mis, I think I better take tissues...

Yep it's a tissues film, I loved it and can't wait to see it again!

be interested to know what you thought. I didn't dislike it, but I didn't love it anyway near as much as I'd anticipated. I cry like a baby through the stage version (Fantine's death starts me off and its downhill all the way from there), but this times my eyes didn't so much as water until Bring Him Home.

I liked Anne Hathaway's interpretation of I dreamed a dream, but Cosette, Eponine and Marius were the only vocal performances to write home about IMHO.

I guess I'm more of a theatre purist than I'd first thought :cool:
