All my bags are packed...

...I'm ready to go. Poor Pookie may well be a bit confused, since I only humphed my bags in the day before yesterday and now I'm off again, back to house-sit for Dornie and Shuna.

However, I will still be going to feed Pookie and Monty twice a day and spend some time with them so that they don't feel totally abandoned. Their owner should be home at the weekend having completed her latest project, a film called "The Making of the Lady", which is due to be screened on ITV on Boxing Day.
