I don't understand why these on-line sites don't let you specify a garage. Get fed up reading loads of stuff before realising it hasn't got your 'must have'

Amazing isn't it; you ask for a cottage with two bedrooms and a garden and get details for 6th floor flats with no garden and 4 bedrooms...

Good news!!! A lady and her daughter came into the centre on Saturday and saw him, fell in love, read about his condition, had a chat to her daughter, and spent some time with him. I asked the deputy manager if she'd have a chat with her about him. She was still really keen. Then she spent some time thinking, chatted to another couple who come in every now and then, and decided ... he's the one!!! So lovely ginger and white boy Jock hopefully has a new home - fingers crossed she doesn't change her mind, but if she does it's OK. It's all about the right cat and the right home.

Posted By: Kateb. I didn't realise he was diabetic - we have a diabetic boy at rehoming and no one wants him because it's too much responsibility and expense. But he's such a lovely boy he really is worth it - I think we should send a poster to the hospital diabetes dept to see if anyone will take pity on him and take him in. > Genius idea!!!

Start sending off for details for houses approximately twice your price limit; he'll be jolted into action...

Caitlyn and Eva (Danny's fiance's daughter) were funny on Sunday - Eva had a sleep over here and apparently woke up early, so Caitlyn told her it was 5am and to go back to sleep. When they got up she admitted it was probably about 8am but she wanted to go back to sleep so fibbed to Eva!! They get on really well which is lovely to see.

I've started decorating room by room - have done the downstairs loo, en-suite, and bathroom. Kitchen next. Hubby has realised that I'm doing it to get ready to move and is claiming he's found "the" house (he hasn't - it was tiny, overpriced, and sandwiched between to A roads!) and thinks our house is worth £50k more than it is. Funny how he doesn't offer to help decorate though!!

They are both true heroes!!! People can be thoughtless sometimes - I would be so grateful I'd be driving him mad with thanks!! Do they realise it was GN and not a fireman that got him out? Very exciting in a scary way though isn't it!

People are odd, aren't they? As you say, a thank you is the least they could do! How brave of GN and Kev; you'll have to knit them a medal each! Well done, GN and Kev. WE appreciate your courage!

We had a right ole drama two doors away from us (posh bungalow side)on Sunday night. G/N works on Sunday and doesn't get home till about 23.20. He always come up stairs to say he's safe home and then I nod off for the night and he watches about an hours worth of TV to unwind. Well just after one I woke up and thought goodness his TV is loud, then I realised it was some one shouting outside. So I look out of the window and am shocked to see said bungalow on fire I scream down to G/N to go and see if help is needed. Kev next door has run out and hammering on the windows and shouting. G/N sees man who lives there in hallway surrounded in smoke and manages to drag him out and thankfully the woman and dog come round from the back with Kev. Then ...

I saw the FB post about your son. It's fantastic news! I don't know him (of course) but I felt really proud of his dogged determination- I hope his girls will realise when they're older just what they mean to him, as well as you and GN. I'm dreading my son moving out when they can afford somewhere - I'll miss my grandkids so much!! What happened with Sootz? Was it ill health or accident?

Hey there its been a while since I spoke to you all last, its been a time of so many mixed emotions. Tension knowing our youngest Son was representing himself in the high courts of London fighting for the rights to have access to his children. Then immense pride with his success after six years struggle and constant getting nowhere, yet never giving up when so many would. Happiness with family over from the states, getting to know our two Grandchildren again. Fun from so many sight seeing trips and family outings then tiredness from all the cooking cleaning washing and ironing. But worst of all the great sense of loss and sorrow with the passing of our Lovely puss Sootz. He is at rest under the apple tree that he used to love climbing ...

No, acupuncture sorts out all sorts of things; for me it works for chest problems, muscle pain and stomach problems. And the lady who stabs me is an ex nurse so she knows when to pack me off to the doctors. Tell work you have a back problem - you don't want to go back!

I was talking to a friend about acupuncture the other day. She swears by it. Is it just for muscle/joint pain? Back to work tomorrow - really don't want to go. Feels like when I was at school and I'd pretend I was sick to get out of going, but my mom never believed me. I reckon that's where my health anxiety started!!!

The main thing is getting used to competitions and things, so just the experience is invaluable to her. Back in the land of the living, ta - just very tired still. Had acupuncture today and that usually helps a lot. Fingers crossed! All quiet at home now then, NN. Hope you had a lovely time with them all...who are the next lot arriving then?

Hello Prettyhen, I've been laid up with a fluey thing so missed your post - welcome belatedly! No hens? Me neither but I want to get a couple of bantams to replace the ones the fox got last year. What sort of cat and dog do you have?

She was very nervous! It wasn't what we expected - basically she was only on the ice for 30 seconds! She had to do a spin, a spiral and a jump. All of the other classes had 4 or 5 kids in, her group had 18!!! Needless to say she didn't get on the podium but we were very proud of her and her coach is entering her in a national competition in Coventry in June. She just needs to get a bit more confidence and not rush as much!
