  • They are thank you. Will print more when I have more time, I have some brilliant photos of him wrapped in all sorts of items of clothing in my arms like a baby. Lol. He was such a cutie. And so cuddly.

    Ooo small bit of excitement for me money wise.

    Paid my £200 DD to my dad. Then paid the last £200. So my loan is paid off. I also paid off a big chunk of my next, have a few items to return so should bring it down a little more. I will be debt free by the time bump becomes baby. :D

    My friend who lost her kitten recently had a 1000 piece puzzle made with her kitten's photo on, she loves puzzles!

  • Thanks MissE001 and Casper

    I know it'll take time. And I have cut myself some slack on the spends this week.

    That sounds like a good idea Casper. I was thinking of doing a photo book as I have lots of photos all over the place of him, as in my phone, my iPad and my computer, so will put them in one place.
