    Unfortunately the bunnies won’t be coming to live with us after all, the owner pulled out and gave the rabbits to his sister instead. This is really disappointing as we were due to collect them today. The kids are really sad.  :'(

    That is frustrating and your children will be upset.

    Thanks everyone, my son won't stop talking about them but he'll get over it. I think we need to look at the positive side of the cost saving as the adoption feee from the centre and the set up would have been quite expensive. We are going to talk to Pets at Home on the weekend as they often have bunnies to rehome so maybe we can go on a waiting list or something.

    Hi Natlie,

    I've just read through your diary this morning,  your doing fab and its amazing once there is a plan for debt payment how much is lifted from your shoulders.

    Just a thought about searching for insurance and buying online. Use cashback sites, quidco & Topcashback. There's lots of money to be had there.

    Good luck

    Naomim
