    We had a crow... it broke out of the fireplace and flapped around the house knocking ornaments aside and someone called the police as the house was empty so we thought there'd been a break in!

    Another £48 spent on pigeon rescue. It flew straight off so none the worse for its ordeal. He’s booked me in for the chimney cowl early October. Finally Mr SA agrees we need one. 

    The work IT issues have only just been fixed. Fortunately it’s not a busy day for me. Finishing in an hour to have my nails done. 

    I’ll certainly be ready for a large gin tonight.

    Awww, poor thing.
    That's not what I'd have been calling it if it had just cost me £48.....

    I would have been so angry with him!

    He always uses the excuse it’s the dog who wants to come and meet me. He even knocked on the window at one stage. I couldn’t turn and look because I was having my nails done.
