    Nice catch up with you, love the vision  board for the job and did smile at the mouse pocket.    Feral kitten says can Chloe send a mouse. She so wants one, she has designs on murder and is not allowed out as WattyDog would chase her away if she was.
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    I shared this with Mr K and he took it far too literally… he is not prepared to put a mouse in the post to feral kitten! 😂 He suggested his mother could knit Feral Kutten a mouse though …? 😂😂😂

    My sisters robot vacuum ate a furry present.  That would 'Flat Stanley' in the post quite nicely I think?

    (she was far from impressed!)

    If your friend has anything like the cold my OH and the children have she is being very kind, it has knocked them all for six and they have been very unwell for the best part of a fortnight 😞 I'm guessing she doesn't want to pass it on and make you ill for your well deserved holiday.

  • It has actually made me lol that Captain Colon was having a look for you on LI, prob best to have blocked him but tempting to demand quadruple your usual rate for ad hoc consultancy work when he comes crawling
