....What's new pussy cat?.......

Charlotte the baby meets Pasha the Bengal Leopard Cat.

Up until today these two have studiously ignored each other, although Charlie began noticing Pasha about a week ago......now she's grabbing everything she can and putting it in her mouth.....so when they came nose to nose tonight there was collective intake of breath.

We needn't have worried......Pasha has always been a real tactile cat...... loves being stroked, practically throws herself at any spare hand she can find.....so Charlie reached out and grabbed two handsful of fur........and Pasha rolled over and began loud mewing.....which made Charlie squeal....which made Pasha roll over some more....they had a great 10 minutes or so.

My day? Up at 6.30, picked up Shaun, arrived at Red Bridge and set up...3 fish in the first twenty minutes........then it started raining, not heavy, just constant, annoying not really heavy enough to need a brolly, but not light enough to do without one either......four hours later after putting up and taking down the brolly about a dozen times....no more fish had been caught....so Shaun and I jacked it in. Filled up with petrol, home, made a sandwich, settled down to watch some TV and the S&H , YH and Charlie arrived earlier than expected.

Charlie was really grumpy, she's off grand dad at the moment....cries every time I pick her up....but she hasn't slept well in all this heat so she was grumpy with every one except the Daughter.....Mummy and Daddy had to take her for a walk in the buggy to get her to drop off, while I knocked up a cottage pie for dinner.

The Boss got back three minutes after they left....her Dad was on good form....they had a good weekend together...everything's back to normal....work tomorrow....oh joy!

Das vidanya moy padruga.
