I'm so sorry to hear that you've been made redundant. Are you going to be able to manage to look after all your waifs and strays with just ya hubs' income? I know how expensive it is with just eight to look after....let alone 37 (or is it now 38?)

Can you do any freelance work?

Lots of love

Roz

Enjoy the festive break and Good Luck in finding a new job soon.

Chrissie luch courtesy of M & S came by way of a thankyou from Robins boss for all his efforts since we moved and Tesco vouchers will buy the veggies so we are fine and the furkids boxed food for the festive period arrived to and we shopped for the rest as we had a whole pile of vouchers and got a nice surprise at Pets at Home to so all is well in our world - just need Rio nowe to complete the picture - he is still sitting on the traps and not in them!
