Morning beanie I agree with what tea said - lunch with your mum can be really good for you, but the fb is going to be tough, and getting tougher, for a while yet. Hope you slept well last night.

Thanks everyone.
I will make no comment about the FB today.
I got a phone call today to say that the boys are back.
I have to hype myself up to pick them up at some point.
I have never done this before in all my years of cat ownership.
So that is a first.
I also have to hype myself up to get the bill.

I sent DS to pick up my old boy we buried his ashes in the garden and DD bought a plaque with his photo on so we know where he is. Always with us in our hearts 💕 Sending you my thoughts and hugs today, it won't be easy xxI get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping) -.literally have been run over by a bike, mobility scooter and a car - still here 💪5

Oof, beanie, I hope the admin of all that goes okay. Be kind to yourself, okay? It's a rough trip to have to make. A garden plaque is a lovely idea - I confess, the ashes of my beautiful cats are still with me, in an impermeable bag in my wardrobe ...
