    Well just confirmed overtime is not available so it's all about me this weekend, well and the pets. We have an extra dog for a couple of weeks whilst her owner is on holiday :)

    I have a massive to-do-list so i'm going to try and get on top of that, get organised ready for when overtime finally does come my way. Hopefully they'll be a fair few things ticked off!

    Will try and make it a low spend weekend too - wish it could be a no spend but a girl has to eat and all that business ;)

    Back to work for me....long and very frustrating day today!!!

    Hi Choc,

    I am hope this has been a fun-filled or relaxing weekend for Choc?

    Bummer about no overtime but the bright side is the time to your self. Working too hard isn't always great as it just gets de-motivating!

    I hope hubby enjoys the charity walk :)

    Bit of a rubbish end to the week, puddy cat has gone missing :(:(:(:(

    It seems he has vanished and not been seen since Thursday afternoon. We've put posters and notes through doors, spoken to neighbours etc and it everyone remembers seeing him Thurs pm but not since - may I point out he's well known to everyone in our little close.

    I just hope he's ok!!!

    No other news apart from emotional eating and drinking - my to-do-list has gone out the window as spent most of my day walking round village, checking hedges/cutways you name it etc.

    Fingers crossed he turns up soon! xx

    Oh no Choc :(

    I hope he comes back soon. My Aunts went missing not long ago and then a neighbour found her trapped in their green house. She was a bit skinny for a few days but was back to normal in no time.

    I have my fingers crossed that he is just on a little adventure and will return soon. xxx

    Thanks guys. I was hopeful that this horrible rain would have sent him home but not yet.

    If he wasn't such a creature of habit I would worry so much but he literally does the same thing every day with the same rough timings and has never ever gone missing, not even for half a day!

    I do wonder if he is stuck in someones garage or shed given the weather we have had recently. I have had a couple of phone calls from people following posters who recognise him and again the last time they saw him was Thursday afternoon so it's def that time he was last seen by us/anyone....I just hope he turns up soon. Poor little man....I say this, he's probably just decided to move and live with someone else :rotfl:

    No sign of my little man :( Have been out all day on and off looking for him and no one has called to say he's been seen. So worried about him. Hubby has been away all weekend too so it's horrible :-(

    Haven't really given any thought to money or anything else. I know it sounds silly (as he is a cat) but he's my little baby. Always gives me cuddles, snuggles up at night with me etc and I miss him soooooooooooooooooo much. I really really hope he's just stuck in a shed or garage and will be let lose soon and nothing bad has happend to him. That said, either way I would just like to know.

    Back to work for me tomorrow - hubby home tomorrow too so I can't wait for a nice big hug from him.

    Think i'm going to grab myself a bath and early night. Not slept properly since Friday evening as every little noise I wake thinking is that him??

    Hope everyone else had a good weekend xxx
