@torthecatlady your news about your cat has made me smile.

@oybbk on the other hand......snow! Pah! Cancel it forthwith please?

@torthecatlady that is wonderful news

@torthecatlady Great news. Hope he recovers quickly.

@OYBBK - When is this wet & windy weather ever going to end?

@torthecatlady
I'm so pleased he's back, how is he today?

@torthecatlady

That’s fabulous news 🐱

How’s he doing now?

Sorry for the delay! Yes Dc1 is very well thank you! It's so good to have him home. He's a lap cat so it's lovely to have him snuggled up with us, more than usual! Although, I'd forgotten how much his fur moults!

He's still ferociously hungry and we've been giving him treats whenever he wants them I think I'll open a tin of tuna for dc1&2 this evening!

Dss will be delighted that he has come back from his holiday as Dc1's favourite place to sleep is in his bedroom

My home Insurance is due for renewal today - thankfully we weren't flooded however the premium has increased... so I need to shop around after work to find a better deal.

@torthecatlady so lovely you have your cat home and safe

I worked from home today in case the weather deteriorated, but it seems to be behaving.

Being quite far West, we are staying light until 6pm especially on a day like today, cloudless and sunny most of the day. It's this time of year the light gain becomes exponential, whereas in Dec and Jan it's almost imperceptible. It's just starting to get light when I leave home in the mornings at 6am, I wonder if the worst of the winter will soon be over.
