  • Thanks Honeybear, I'm currently just washing everything they bring round, I've offered the rabbits a home here till it's clear. I'm just glad they are both alright and no one was injured or worse.

    Have a good Sunday everyone

    Took long enough lol! It's out of date in December! As soon as I found it I knew my sister would get through her op ok, and she has, she's under sedation in ICU but it's happened. What a relief for us all.
    And while that was going on I dealt with the frog that is sorting out receipts (into shred or save) and updating my accounts. Which is where I found the card. I have looked in the receipt box before, though, but it was a bit of a needle in a haystack situation!

    Glad to hear your sister has had her op, Valli, and that you've found the gift card.

    Mrs-mp, what a nightmare for your daughter! So relieved to hear that they are safe - it could have been far worse.

    I have spent much of the weekend working on a Gift Aid claim for church. I inherited a crazy, inefficient, next-to-useless system from my predecessor and it's taking a while to get it sorted :mad:

    See you all on the new thread...
