Apologies, I didn't realise it was against forum rules to mention fundraising for a single cat rescue, sorry if any offence was caused to other rescues.  I won't mention fundraising again and will e-mail Teresa direct in future.

Isnt that what purrs is for?  :-:

Hmm, perhaps all is not lost from this particular "donation", I've just had an idea as a result of it that might raise some money for Paws Inn  :wow:  More information soon ;)

Hi Carolyn, have PM'd you ;)

What a cute courgette!  Lets hope he finds a new home very soon.

I love marrow also.  My mum would make stuffed marrow regularly - stuffed with savoury mince.  Not had one for ages though.  it's one of those veg that is a bit tasteless on it's own so you need to add something tasty to it.  It's what you do with it that counts.

Courgettes are yummy chopped and roasted  ;D

These generous donations have helped more people than I'd imagine the donater thought possible, as a direct result of reading about the apple donation I now have an apple and blackberry crumble bubbling away in the oven as I type :drool;

Julie do you think you could try again, we took one of the neutered ferals back last night and he gave us a bag of cooking apples  :rofl:

Well, I was going to suggest you just fritter this latest donation away but on second thoughts that's a half baked idea - which is all you can get from me at the moment as I've been at work all day and my brain is puree'd and the laptop is about to run out of juice. Why not simply drop them off to the local Constabulary and ask for them to be taken into custardy?  :shify:

Look at those soulful eyes........      I thought Sam would be up for re-homing this litle feller.    :sad no:  He doesn't look like he takes up much space, and I bet he doesn't eat anything at all.

Introducing Mr Courgette, we wanted to offer him Free to Good Home however there appears to be slicers,fryers and cannibals about so have decided to ask for a donation. If not rehomed by Friday pm he will go on the compost heap. :rofl:

slice it up with some other par-cooked veges then put it in a pan with some beaten eggs - salt, pepper, fritata!!! YUM! A courgette from a keen gardener is a gift indeed - hope he doesn't use chemicals though...

It was a kind gesture, even if we know that anyone growing courgettes will have had a glut of them by now. There are lots of yummy things you can do with them T!! :wow:

You could put some little cocktail sticks in for legs Aunty T, and a couple of stuffed olive slices for eyes, with a small string tail - Voila -   a courgette pet!  :wow:

Olives we dont waste pennies on such horrible things; I have asked Mr Courgette to go away but he is ignoring me. Anyone know of a Courgette Rescue :rofl:
