    He's lurvely, really sweet. Couldn't bear the pigs head now, but when I was a student, we picked up a little kitten for a while, and I fed him on cow's lights (lungs!!!) I can't believe I did that...

    as for the drag queens, en masse I can imagine they're quite intimidating if you're not used to it. We have a crossdresser running our Oxfam, however... funny old world... did you see a Naked Bike Ride near you?

    KC whats a naked bike ride (date I ask she thinks as she types!!)?!! I love drag queens TBH but they were very tall and even then wearing platforms with tights and what can only be described as tight (in ALL areas!) leotards! My feeling on drag queens in this country is that they dont seem to be as glam as the ones I used to know - you really had to look to see if they were in drag as make up etc was perfect & classy where often here I find its more trowl & effect which is a shame but then some women are like that too arent they eh!
    Had a lovely lie in & woke at 10 so ave a brekkie and will then do things! Hoovering, cat litter trays, recipe hunt & hopeully hair pack plus get to the allotment for a bit although it looks like rain coming again...
    I dont object to the pigs head its just the thought of it looking at you (even if eyes removed!) that I dont like!! eeeew!

    sea I have made a good start on the CJ and will have it back to you asap! Just some drying & tweaking to do!
    Thanks taxi...went to alotment & planted sweetcorn out, transplanted 3 toms into large tubs, panted the weel saved flowers, found an ants nest (they seem to love my plot!) and did a bit of clearing. 2 days off this week so will try & get up then & have another bash & think that I have a trip out on Sat with my mate who I go shopping with about twoce a year!
    Diet been ok and have done 2 red days so lots of meat...Havent made bread as back was killing me but did make a start on the tax forms but cant finish them as dont get what I put where so will ring them rather than faff & get it wrong...so many boxes means my brain shuts down as soon as I look at em!
    Alfie settling in nicely although he did a poo on the rug which is a bit gross but hes only a baby! Will need to sort insurance out but hes registered with the vets...He sleeps happily on my bed and is quite a character. Suspect he will be quite a big cat & I dont regret getting him for one minute...Other cats are getting used to him although quite wary which is funny as he's tiny & they are much bigger!
    W*** tomorrow & working late so will be a long day and wont get home until about 10! Lots of toil though which means I can take a day off in the week when I fancy it plus have loads of hold left...

    hi, oh i really need to cat nap your cat he would be perfect living here, i always wanted a gray cat, he's so cute. I was wondering how the others had taken to him, it's not always easy when a kitten moves onto the block.
    Ants have taken over one of my compost bins and i hate them, even worse than spiders to some extent. Just not sure what it's a sign of, but i'm sure it means some thing. I helped OH out on his allotment this weekend, there's so many weeds and it's hard work but it's great to be outside, i can't just sit outside in the heat, i have to be doing something.
    Hope slimming world went well.

    Thanks LT...SW wasnt great as ate tea just before I went & put on a ound & half...dont think I have but its demoralising! Sorry but no cat napping of Alfie allowed! He's gorgeous though isnt he eh! The other cats vary from wary to cross and Dotty got a telling off this am for growling at him! Bless him his tummys been a bit dodgy so had to clean up all sorts of lovelies when I got home! Just back from w*** & chilling for an hour before bed & then back to w*** again the two strike days off! Think it will be the last one & if they come out again will come out of the union as just cant afford to loose pay on a extended basis. A jobs a job at the end of the day! Off to catch up on you all. LT great that you enjoy the allotment too...ants are a pain arent they eh!
