Kitten update .
Georgie is getting used to us and will now come in to the living room and jump up onto our laps for a cuddle and a nap .
Last night he decided that it was time for the Christmas decorations to come down . He climbed up into the tree to get a soft green crocodile out to play with .
He is also very helpful . At night I give him a hot water bottle wrapped in a towel to put in his box . While I am filling his water bottle he jumps on and attacks the towel that I have laid flat on the floor .
He is sat next to me at the moment watching the telly .

I put bird food out every day but sometimes I think I'm just feeding the pigeons. Eight of them came down this morning and cleaned the feed bowl completely, so there's nothing left for any other birds. Its all gone now but there are still three pigeons looking for more

Do you know that on Youtube there are videos of birds which have been made to entertain cats?

Snowing harder here ! It was very light when I went out to feed the birds earlier. It's very fine snow .

It's just persistently downing here

Thanks. I thought she had gone.

Rumours of my demise have been exaggerated. It's been a good year for mushroom-hunting, and I've managed to stay off the Death Caps. Find of the season is probably this mahoosive Wood Blewit.

Eeeeeee, seeing what @fossyant and @biggs682 have posted makes me glad my mum is a technophobe...

Only downside, she keeps nicking my books...

About 10 years ago, when my father died, I tried to get my mother to use his computer, so we could keep in touch. It just didn't work and now there's no chance. But while she lived with us she tended to nick my books too.

Jeezo! I wish I could peel myself off my bed at that time in the morning Andy, the days half over and I have only managed to fend off the hungry beasts so far.

I did go to bed at about ten last night, to be fair.

Are we sure it's the new year? The weather's exactly the same as yesterday.

My bird feeder has been honed to (almost) perfection to stop pigeons and squirrels getting at the food!
I found that a tray encourages both of them. I have only tubes and a square cage.
The squirrels occasionally get near things but usually fall off and the pigeons just strut around the base of the pole pecking at whatever food falls off from the Goldfinches and Tits squabbling antics.

Does anyone keep paper Bank Statements, or do you just download them and put them on your puter?

My wife downloads them, prints them and leaves them on the printer!

Just let Molly see and she wasn't in the least interested. She knows they are not real. I heard her at the living room window earlier chattering away to the real ones. Smart cookie knows the difference!
