    Thanks they are lovely and we they are pretty good with the litter tray just got upset tums but that is to be expected with the move and all that.

    Thomas sat on my leg for ages just now and he let me stroke him as much as I wanted to so I think he is going to be quite friendly. Jack is happy to have a cuddle from anyone. Need to get them to use the Scracth pad as I do not want any claws on the furniture.

    Been a couple of busy days are work but at least I am working from home tomorrow. Nice

    Just typical wrote yesterday the kittens are great with a litter tray so far we have had two major accidents on the duvet and it is impossible to get anything dry in the weather.

    Kittens are still lovely though lying underneath my desk actually one is sleeping on top of my Radley handbag you are quite right fancy beds are not to their taste at the moment.

    Just called Barclay's to see what happens now we have paid off the mortgage. Well they told me they don't send confirmation nor the deeds back unless people call them. Well how was I to know. Anyway we should have it in 7 to 10 days so will finally get to see that £0.

    Working from home nicely today getting distracted by kittens though. No snow here hope you are all OK where you are.

  • "Mummyofonechild good luck with your mf journey, keep chipping away at it and remember it is not a sprint but a marathon so have fun in the meantime. "

    Hi Tallgirl, point noted about it not being a sprint but have never been this close to paying it off tho. Love the photo of the kittens, but sleeping on a Radley Handbag!! Mine never leaves my sight. They must have good taste tho :)

    I am thinking of ordering a new TV. Have been wanting it for over 6months now and it is in the Amazon sale for the cheapest price I have ever seen it. Am to tight to part with the cash :rotfl:

    I think you need to buy that telly if it is the right price and you feel you need it go for it. I think sometimes we can wait forever on things like that as they keep coming down in price but then when would we ever get to enjoy it.

    I agree Jack has expensive taste but to be fair is also more expensive than the handbag. Need to go and have some lunch now and try to sort the washing out.

    Quick update did not do BodyPump last night at it doesn't finish until 8pm but did do 1 hour in the gym instead. No alcohol at all so looking good for this week.

    Off to Dorset today, should be a nice drive in the sunshine.

    Thats great news well done on making the decision please post which one you went for and if it is nice when you get it. DH really wants one but after we have got the kittens he has stopped asking for it.

    He managed to cancel the kitten we put a deposit down for. The woman was fine about it and said someone else can now move up her list. I hope she will refund us the money DH did not ask but she does have our address so we shall see.
