Now now Stephen don't talk like that about yourself

You haven't seen the photos

[Happydays]

Only the ones at the bottom of your post and must say they are stunning I used to have a pure black cat many years ago

[Stephen]

Thank you.
Unfortunately the pure black one, Freddie, is no longer with us. He had a altication with a vehicle several years ago and the vehicle won. We are left with Monty now our nine year old black and white who treats the house like a hotel and us as his staff. Wouldn't be without him though.

Our black cat found us! Tried to find out who she belonged to but had no takers. About a year later found out it was the next door neighbour but they had changed their minds about having a cat and seen we were a soft touch didn't claim her never felt the same about them after that, they could have told us we would still given her a home.

Our choice though is a cocker spaniel who has us completely under her paw, wouldn't have it any other way

I can never understands peoples mentality of abandoning animals. There really is no need for it. Like you I would blank them.

Did they actually abandoned it, they knew where it was and were happy to see it going willingly to a new home.

It could be that the cat ripped the back of their sofa to shreads, pee-ed and poo-ed in the kitchen, bought fleas into the bed, coughed up worms etc etc and they just hadn't realised that animals can do those things instead of politely sitting in it's chair watching TV like wot they did do.

Maybe ?

Still no excuse to not let the neubour (Happydays) know that it was/had been there's and that they were happy for her to keep it if she so wished.

It was only a youngster, I think the novelty had worn off! She lived until she was almost 21

I've had enough of this very hot weather. Another hot week to come though here. Wednesday @ 2pm feels like 38deg.

[Manoverboard]

It seems to have cooled down a tad here in not quite so sunny Darzet

[Stephen]

Went for a walk with Mrs S along the bank at Heybridge this afternoon. Lovely cool'ish breeze

The log burner is on standby and ready to fire into action, but hopefully not yet.

Well we can't spend our money on cruises at present, so we might as well be warm and comfortable at home.

Yes I do spoil her, I even let her wear the outfit in spite of her not having completed the repayment for it

The weather could be better here, but it's just nice to get away and have a change of scenery.

Off to Lyme Regis in a while. Will definately be visiting the National Trust shop and purchasing a couple of jars of their wonderful stem ginger preserve

Didn't know there was a NT shop in Lyme Regis .... or indeed any thereabouts

[Stephen]

It's been there the last couple of years of visiting. It's situated about halfway along the sea front. Sidmouth also has a shop in the town.

Required goods purchased, now back at base. Would have stayed longer but the weather changed and it was getting uncomfortably busy.

I obviously walk around with my eyes closed ... I've spotted the one in Salisbury though
