    Does Mr SA like the flat beer in the fridge? Or does it get thrown away?

    Verbatim - he mixes it with fresh beer the next day. He does some strange things, I've got used to it.

    Don't even ask about the cat and the vets. The dental estimate is £481 :eek: This is because she has to have a battery of blood tests first to make sure she's suitable for anaesthetic. Liver and kidney tests etc - I'm praying those tests come back clear as if they don't it will be even more expensive as they'll have to treat that first :eek:

    It would be a lot cheaper to buy a new cat!! Sorry cat I don't mean that :(

    What can you do but to pay out though. The vet said she has a lot of plaque and they've quoted for removing two teeth which they might not have to take out in the end. I had allowed for about £300 in my head but didn't think about blood tests. And this is with a discount because I have the vet plan.

    On a lighter note, spent my £40 in vouchers finally - got a pair of trousers and two tops in the Dotty P sale.

    Lost a pound at WW today so back to being a pound under goal :) Probably sweated it off LOL

    Weather has been awful this afternoon, rain, wind, grey :(

    Went to local fair with DS and the family. Took the GKs on the runaway train, GS hated it. Then took GD on the speedway which we both loved, was tempted to have another go :)

    Then back to ours as it started raining. DS helped Mr SA with lifting some old paving slabs ready to replace with new ones.

    Not a lot else to report, felt quite lazy today.
