    Cat update - I am in contact with my local Cats Protection branch and I hope to be able to visit their re-homing centre this coming weekend to see if one of their guests would like me to be their servant... :D

    Savings plan? I am trying to put savings into my local Credit Union whenever I can, even if it's only a few quid here and there. Eventually I would like to be putting at least £20 a month into my savings, more whenever I can afford to. I would like to save up for a car... I know it will take a while though...

    Life assurance/insurance, looking at this to see what options are there...

    Steady as I go... ;D

    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    So pleased there are movements on the cat front, how lovely that you will be rescuing one in need of a good home.

    On the savings front anything saved is good no matter how small the amount.

    All sounding good :)

    A wee bit down that I couldn't make it through to visit my local Cats' protection re-homing centre this weekend... friend had car trouble unfortunately... her clutch has gone...

    However, onward and upwards. Hopefully get over once the car has been sorted.

    Hope everyone is having a lovely weekend :D

    Quick update - have contacted a lovely lady who volunteers with a cats re-homing charity. She says that finding a house-cat can be difficult as they mostly deal in strays and feral... however, she said that she may be able to help.
    So just waiting to hear now if she or someone she knows has a house-cat looking for a new home... fingers crossed...

    Another quickie - just received an update from the lovely lady at the charity who has been contacted by an elderly gentleman looking to re-home his house cat. She has forwarded me his details and I will be contacting him once I get home from work...

    I am super excited and hope this is going to happen and that I will have a wee cat of my own again :D
