CATS

I'm posting today about my cats who can be truly fearsome at times.  As it is spring and we are surrounded by trees all the little baby birds who are just fledging have become targets for both my beasts.  Sunday morning was carnage - blood and feathers all over the bath, a foot of some description - the children couldn't agree on mouse or bird and the remains of a corpse on the front step.  Saturday lunch time and 1 brings in something that looks like road kill.  I love my cats dearly but sometimes they are just beastly!!!!!

Boiler is Now Fixed

Have been having probs with said boiler for some time now so much so that we were reduced to choosing between freezing our butts off or boiling in Dante's Inferno.  However, my sticky valve, has now been fixed and my boiler and therefore my central heating is now working again.  As an aside, my eldest DS is in the Air Training Corps and they were on manoeuvers last night and some bully thug Cadet Sergeant threw him in a thorn bush and scarred up his little leggy peggy - suffice it to say - the Cadet Sergeant should now beware!!!!

I LOVE COSMO CRICKET

I entered a Cosmo Cricket competition about Surprising the kids but I entered after the deadline and do you know what that fab company have done anyway - sent me a lovely email saying sorry I was too late but are going to send me some goodies anyway.  In this day and age of Indian call centres and couldn't care less attitudes I am astounded, astonished, amazed and of course a little happy that Cosmo Cricket keep their customers happiness at their core.  YOU GO COSMO CRICKET

OPENED MY OWN SHOP

Hi All
I know this may seem a bit weird but I opened an online etsy shop www.OscaraCrafts.etsy.com to sell some of my overflowing craft stash and the things I've made with it. However, just received etsy newsletter and now notice that not only do you have to have something really cool, chic, hip and inspiring but that u have to photograph it in amazing light and in a quirky way - I do not know if my tiny little HP photosmart camera and my David Bailey skills r truly up to etsy standards. I wonder if I should start my own online shop site called pigstsy for those of us who do not reach the dizzying standards of etsy?!? Let me know what u think?

Happy Easter

Happy Easter all u chaps - may I just take a moment 2 ask everyone 2 remember what Easter is about?  Thanks u all 4 thinking nice peaceful thoughts.  Have held the traditional E Egg hunt only this year Bunny duty was taken over by eldest son Oscar thank goodness - he joined into the spirit of the thing and hid bunny paw prints, rabbit masks and chocolate everywhere.  The littlies really enjoyed it even if it was wet, gloopy, moist and muddy yeuch is a very appropriate sound.  Anyhoo, just finished and Easter Scrapbook with all the pics so enjoy.
