    I want to apologise to Savvy since it was me who first posted about pus in milk. I'm so sorry and wouldn't have posted about this if I'd known it would cause so much distress :( I hope you can stop worrying about it Savvy. Lots of products are made from dairy but they go through so many processes that I doubt there would be any pus left. Certainly any germs from this would have been killed I'm sure. I don't want to be the one who stops you enjoying your cereal Savvy so please stop worrying otherwise you will cause me to worry about what I've done to you :D

    Good afternoon everybody, I hope you are well and had a fabulous weekend. I have not been able to catch up. I did the three peaks challenge this weekend and I have just got back. My legs are in so much pain I could not imagine shopping or attempting to pick up a womble

    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Oh I found her. She's just behaving a bit strangely. She won't come inside, not interested in her food when she usually stalks me until I put her biscuits out in the morning :o I'll keep an eye on her, if she doesn't disappear again, that is.

    One of ours did the vanishing act and when he came back he was very strange, totally refused to eat, even tried to spoon feed him. I took him for a check up at the vets and he could find no injury, just something very frightening had happened.

    I was up in the night worried sick so I did some background reading and I found out that, like humans a few days off your food wont kill you but they do need to drink as dehydration is a very big problem.

    So I had a little plastic syringe that I filled with warm water and I made sure it was going down the right way, not into the lungs and I squirted water into his stomach - you could hear it gurgling down as it was totally empty.

    This went on for days, did it as often as I could even in the night so I was literally keeping him alive doing this.

    I thin k it was day 6 before he finally started eating again and no problems since.

    Oh I don't know? :o last night she was on the roof of the welly room and wouldn't come down. I got the ladders out and climbed up to see what was up with her, she wouldn't budge. She was missing all day yesterday as well OH said.

    This sounds far posher than it probably is - a room just for wellies :rotfl:

    I think I read once that Bill Gates has a wrapping room just for wrapping up presents with gift wrap, ribbons and bows etc :D

    A welly room is far more useful :T
