Really hope the gorgeous Wispa is ok, lots and LOTS of good thoughts on the way :GroupHug:

Ouch! Poor wee girl lots of good thoughts on the way

RMF:I have eaten too many haribo and mini dime bars and I feel reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally sick

Oh Alex lots of 's on the way to you and Milly and some for the rest of your lovely gang too Hope you found some bubble wrap Snow! Morning Cheryl Jules I second that idea!! RMF: Sparks went doolally last night and had to shut her out of the bedroom, felt guilty but she was killing every toy she could find and then belting up and down the stairs

Morning I have a slightly tender head this morning, darn that white wine for jumping out of the bottle into my glass last night Yay welcome home Di, am very glad you dragged yourself away from the sunshine and fun! Hope today is a good day Alex Good luck with your move Andrea Your house sounds like a minefield of "how can we stop mum working and make her run around after us" what with Tara and the puss prats

I've filled it in but agree with previous comments that a comment box would have been useful Sparks is an indoor cat now but it is through her choice, she went out as a youngster and now doesn't want to, she will go out if I am out but as soon as I look like I am going near the door she is through it in a flash

I need to try these with my Jack, again a very noise sensitive little sausage! Is there anywhere I can order them through with the Easyfundraising linky??

Moaning Why did I have quite so much red wine last night?!!! Am feeling rather fuzzy this morning I will try to take photos Saf and thanks I have 101 dream houses lined up for when I win the lottery ... will post some when I get to work although if I am on here too much today please kick my butt as I also have 101 things to do

Well done for standing up for yourself Jazz Nige My link

Fab news Michelle Hope you are feeling better Jazz RMF: I gave my formal written notice to work yesterday last day is the 13th January and am then moving to Kemsing on the 15th

Thanks Di can't see the colours at the mo as I'm in work but will drop you a PM later on once home with a request!

for you Katiebob, hope the pups are keeping you smiling for Wendy and Sir H Morning RMF: I yam SOOOOOOOOO excited and happy that it is Friday and I am driving to Kent tonight not seen Simon for 2 weeks, it has flown by but I can't wait for tonight!!

Yay Pickle!!! Hope Maude gets used to it That is my plan still feel bad though Hope Sophie gets better soon

RMF: I am a BAD girlfriend have been so wrapped up in trying to sort out house stuff and working my butt off that I completely forgot that Simon had a BIG meeting today/yesterday and another BIG meeting in Southampton today/yesterday, I can't even remember which day which was on

Di am I too late?! Have you gone?? Please don't have gone!!!

Thank you lovely Fugees All very good tips and will be trying a combination of them Will let you know how I get on

Thanks hun When do cats become "senior" ?? Sparks is 5 and a half now, not sure if that qualifys her?! I was thinking about James Wellbeloved in any case as I know that I can get it in P@H - I don't do on-line shopping which makes it difficult to get the really good ones! Plus she is a little bit podgy I may well try the Forthglade one, or something similar, she does love wet food so want to keep it in her diet, would just like to stop having to worry about the little ginger miss!

Hey all knowing Fugees Sparks keeps on being sick not ALL the time but at least once a week, other than this she is absolutely fine and showing no signs of being under the weather, it is just liquid/odd bit of food not hair balls ... In any case at the moment she is on a mixture of GoCat indoor dry food and GoCat duck dry food with the odd wet pouch here and there (Whiskers) she isn't sick after any particular food so I think I just need to put her on a dry natural food and was hoping a Fugee could suggest one?? Many thanks! EllieSparkle xx

RMF: I have WAY too much on!!!! HUGE 's on the way to everyone who needs/wants one especially: Nog, Snow and family Nige Alex and Millie Merle Jazz and her poorly chest Mogs and her poorly teeth/tooth Suzanna I am really sorry if I have left anyone out, that has been done through what little memory I have left from what I have scanned on here over the last week or so

Hello lovely Fugees I've not been around for a while on-line anywhere recently so I thought I would give you all a quick news update - no replies needed just didn't want you all to think I've forgotten you!! First of all Jack is - as ever! - a superstar and I will never be able to thank S&P enough for letting me adopt him - or Paul for putting up with me badgering him constantly at a Christmas Fair 4 years ago this November to let me have him!! He has been having a couple of issues with the cutting of paws (the Libby in him makes him chase rabbits/hares/monkjack deer through all sorts of terraine) and it seems that every other week he has managed to give me a heart attack by coming back on three legs dripping blood but after a day or so of being lifted onto and off the sofa, carried up stairs and being having treats/dinner bought to him he appears to recover well enough! Nothing that has needed stiches and TBH I have never ever found the original source of the blood as the cuts are so small but I do wish he would stop it! Other than that he has been fantastic with sheep (off lead through the same fields and not even a glance in their direction) and around the house and seems a lot calmer and more relaxed than this time last year ... although that could have to do with other news! Sparks is utterly gorgeous and having a kitten phase at the moment (she is now almost 5!) which involves waking me up at 5 most mornings by jumping on my head and a lot of shouting for attention/games/to stop her 'little' brother sitting on her after she has been attacking him for the last five minutes as it is the only way he can get her to stop beating him up!! So all in all the furry four legged babies are doing brilliantly I am signing contracts on Wed to begin the exchange on my house purchase, its been a bit of a faff as the Redrow solicitors weren't particularly organised (my solicitor has given up and redrawn the plans himself bless him ) but it seems as if it will all finally go through and I can then get it sorted and begin the process of letting it out ... why am I letting it out I hear you ask? Because my lovely fantastic boyfriend Simon has asked me to move with him and I will be joining him in January - together with the furry ones of course! Before my lovely friends on here worry, more long term plans have been discussed and I think (judging from what has been said) that I will have more news sometime between now and Easter ;) I think that Simon and how happy and relaxed I am now has been the reason why Jack is happier and more relaxed in himself, he adores Simon (and vica versa it must be said!) so all in all we are a very happy little family Of course all of this means that I will be leaving my job and starting the hunt down there in the new year ... I am checking with my firm as to the possibility of transferring to the London office, but it depends what they would be paying me as it would cost me about £3,500 to commute a year and on top of that I would have to pay god knows what for a dog walker 5 days a week ... walking Jack at lunch time is the highlight of the working day so I really have got my fingers crossed that they won't pay me enough so I can get a local job and carry on as normal but we will see! So I think that is it - for now at least! - but I will do my best to keep in contact Much love and hugs to all EllieSparkle xx

Poor lad :GroupHug: No idea if it will be helpful or not but on BBC2 Wales at 1930 this evening there is a programme on bullying done by Aled from the Chris Moyles show (heard about it on the way in this morning) if you have sky I think it was channel 991 they said ... either way I hope things improve for him soon

I've realised I am a lazy bugger so have decided that I never will run ... unless playing tennis! And the only exercise I am likely to get is skiing, walking Jack - who is on short ones at the moment - and the aforementioned tennis ... ho hum!

Beth! Helloooooooooooooo am so SO excited for you both!

Ah ... well no one in my office dares to complain ... and the whole night is free so they really have nothing to complain about as all they have to do is turn up (else I will kick their bums!!) Hope yours is fun though Amy Owl and Owlbloke hope the work bullies get sorted RMF: I loves my little doglet
