    What a mystery! The camera can't be that insensitive. Have you tested it at all to see what might trigger it, for example, would a stick moving in front of it trigger it, and what size of stick? How fast would the stick need to be moving?
    Yesterday in front of the log burner for the first time this year, with movies and snacks sounds amazing! I'm holding off on lighting my fire until it gets colder, but the cravings for it are getting stronger! 
    It’s heat sensitive, it has picked up very small beasties in the past, but now isn’t bothering for anything smaller than us!  Very odd! I think we may need to replace it at some point, it was a bargain basement one.

  • Thanks @Baileys_Babe. We had a go at adjusting the settings, put down some food, came back and the food had all gone, but the only picture was MrWW setting it up!  Ah well, I will have to wait until we can get a replacement at some point to find out about the monkeys. At least I can see the bunnies in the garden eating the carrots and apples I put closer to the house. 
    I see Robert Webb has left strictly. I don’t blame him not wanting to risk his health, but I wonder if the others will get a free week?

    Ugo Monye isn't dancing this week either, it will be interesting to see what they do!

    Happy Sunday. Sorry to hear Mr WW is being grumpy, at least you can take the dog for a drive and get out his way for a bit.

  • Good morning and happy work day Monday 😭😭😭
    one of the cats was sick all down my side of the bed and the bottom sheet last night! I didn’t realise until I rolled in it, so that was nice! I didn’t want to wake everyone else so covered it with a big towel at 3am, half asleep and will now have to fit in a whole bed change today and more lovely washing 😖
    I was sad to see Greg go last night, but he was dire on that dance and it will be a relief not to see those trousers again 🤣
    I am storming the NSD’s through necessity this month and will be on 12 today. I will smash that 15 target, but really miss the little spends. I have managed to squirrel £100 back to savings to slightly counteract the earlier overspends. Two weeks to pay day and after dd’s I have £50. This is really for diesel so I won’t use it for anything else even if I manage not to fill up this month. Possibly I’ll put it in next weekend to get it out of the way…I don’t really like going to the petrol station…I don’t know why, but it always feels stressful! 
    I really must climb out of this (manky…thanks cat) pit and get going. A lovely email mountain awaits ☹️
    I hope you all have Marvell Monday’s, that work treats you kindly and all good things flow your way 🪄🧚‍♀️☕️🍫🍰

    Happy Monday. Boo to the cat sick 🤢 My cat woke me up at 4am purring on my pillow. You’ve done really well with the NSDs. I know what you mean about Greg’s trousers 😂

    Morning @winterWarrior. Animals eh? Always something. I don't let the cats in my bedroom, but many's the morning I've woken up to cat vom all over somewhere. These days my dog tends to scoff it before I've seen it (urgh - animals!) which although truly gross, does save me some manky cleaning jobs. 
    Live the good life where you have been planted.

    Morning WW, what a horrid start to a back to work Monday!

    I too hate filling up with petrol

    We have been gazing adoringly at black lab puppy via Facet..e, hurry up Australia and let us in!

    Good luck climbing MT Email.

    I agree re Greg, wasn’t his dance. Adam and Katya though, wow 😲
