Oh yuck, dusty what a nightmare xx
Calming vibes for pigpen and healing vibes for CY and anyone else in need.
My hair is gone! And I love it! Just sent a pic to my cousin, and she said it's really classy :T I'm very pleased - although she has over-straightened it - but she needed to make sure it was perfect. It will be a touch bouncier when I do it.
Also been in 2 cafes, mooches round shops, bought much needed shoes for work and some opaque tights.
Home in time to check in before I go collect the kiddies
Tonight we are back at beavers. Tomorrow I am FLYING!!!Bossymoo

Oh no have you got to go round to them and tell them the sad news...? Don't tell them you think it was the cat..say you found it when you went into your garden this morning..or something like that. I mean it could have been a fox.. I know how you mean though I would feel awful too. That's why I'm glad my two horrors are indoor cats and would more likely run away from anything that wasn't me or the dogs..lol
I'd do this too.. if in doubt.. omit certain facts!! (((hugs Dusty))) must have been most upsettingPoor bunny!

Had quite a good day yesterday - will admit to slightly cheating as we don't really have an office (well unless you count my shed but it's still full of stuff that needs to be organised and moved into the house) so a lot of the office stuff is crossed out as we don't have it yet. I am slightly dreading when I have to clean the shed though...
Also had to wash my hair yesterday so did lots of flying whilst waiting for my hair mask to sink in (tell me I'm not the only one who does this?). So all in all pretty productive I think!

Already spoken to neighbour, she was fine, blaming daughter for leaving rabbit out. Case not helped by one of my gingers sitting on the top of hutch this morning! DH to do burial later as she said put it in brown bin, I couldn't do that.

Dusty- I'm glad she was sympathetic and good luck for the funeral.
Cy- hope you are bearing up today.
I had a friend around this morning but this afternoon I have tackled the kitchen (looks great!), the downstairs and three bathrooms. So really pleased with my efforts. Middle floor next (living room and master bedroom!)

They were very well cared for, big runs, clean bedding, groomed etc. Trouble is the big two were males and constantly fought so over the past 2 years have had to be kept separate and rotated with the small girl bunny. I think it was a lot of hassle. She is a very straight forward person but would not have wished harm on them, doesn't do sentimenal like me.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

Afternoon all,
Back from paid stuff, DDs collected from school, major falling out trauma with Dd1's best friend smoothed. We are all off out in a bit for a meal with OH's family to celebrate an anniversary, so once again, this is a no fly zone.
frizzle brill news re girl.
dusty blimey, what a horrible thing to happen, glad your neighbour was matter of fact about the whole thing (but personally I think ' put it in the brown bin ' is a bit too matter of fact!)
FBO Well done re four months
bossy we too have had the nit warning already, it took a week. Yuck.0
