Just over a couple of weeks ago, we lost our beloved furry boy…our Bill…and our hearts broke… We knew he had kidney disease due to old age plus some dementia, but he was doing ok. We decided to go away to the coast for the weekend, but in the few hours it took to get […]
Last weekend, we met the weirdest looking person ever…Graham. Now before you think I am being horribly mean, he is the TAC’s latest road safety project…Graham is what we would look like if we were built to survive on our roads. So, let me introduce you to him….he has been hanging out in the State […]
Happy birthday to our littlest furkid, the famous Miss Charlotte! Five years ago you came into the world, and joined our little family a couple of months after.

So she gradually stepped up the colour over many months…working through red through to a copper shade. I loved […]
Today marks another milestone…it’s my husband’s birthday. It is significant because it is another year that he wouldn’t have seen if he hadn’t had a much needed liver transplant. He barely made it to his 40th birthday….he felt and looked terrible. Very jaundiced and so tired all the time, his body was slowly giving in […]
