I'm not really a cat person but every chance she can get our cat Molly comes and sits on me, on the couch, on the bed... I give her her biscuits now and then and she gets a stroke down her back but other than that not much TLC from me as she is Kent's ... Read more >

The arrival into 13 degrees from 30 was ever so slightly chilly, but having now put on ALL of my clothes, I'm toasty and acclimatising to winter in July (which seems so very wrong to someone from the northern hemisphere). So far I've been at the north ... Read more >
