Sunday
The kids were awake before us, but they played quietly in their rooms until Douglas ventured down.
We made eggy bread for breakfast, M managed 3 slices!! L was desperate to have a go on Runescape, so having set him up his own account, he chopped some logs and then set fire to them, and was delighted to watch his skill levels rise! (C watched, seemingly quite happy just to see what big brother was doing, M happily read Roald Dhal, curled up in a chair. Katie arrived to pick the kids up at about 10am and peace descended.
Shortly after this, we had a call from Thos saying he had found a kitten on the way to Waitrose, and would we like it?? After the initial shock, we said yes, and got quite excited about the prospect of having a cat a bit sooner than we planned!
We agreed to pick the cat up after lunch, and got all excited, and found details of a pet shop that was open to buy a few necessities (litter tray, scratching post and toys).
Just as we were about to set out, Thos called again saying M had fallen in love with the kitten and they had agreed to keep it on a trial basis (this, as I write is still going on – not sure how keen Katie is on keeping it)
We decided to go to the pet shop anyway, since even if Rosie does not become ours, we will get some, and we need some equipment anyway! The pet shop was lovely, and we came away with a scratching post, a cozy bed, a “cat lopedia” a cat carrying basket and a cat fishing rod! Now all we need is the furry things and we are done!! (watch this space...)

Bet you get one soon - especially now you don't need it to scare off the dreaded m-i-l!
Darn.. should have thought about that years ago to prevent her visiting us ;-)
Worried no blog all week. How's D?
Love, Anti
