I wonder if anyone has ever made a textile artwork out of fur balls?

Re: Things that annoy you!

Idiots who dig up roads and cut through cables. No phone or broadband since yesterday morning. Won't be fixed until Monday at earliest. Whole area out. Shops only taking cash.

On roaming data in Wells, nearest it would get a signal. On way to Glasto shopping.

By the way, they dug up the road to put in fibre.

Could that be because it wasn't on your quilt, Roxy?

I understand that if you lose your broadband signal, even if it isn't the fault of the supplier, you can claim a decent amount of financial compensation.

I don't know the details, but it might be worth you googling it.

Oops! Of course! You don't have the internet at the moment! Still, there are ways and means.

Our last cat was straining to poo on our carpet a couple of years ago. I picked him up and put him outside on the ground as quickly as I could.

It turns out that he was mortally ill and we took him to the vet's the next day to be put down.

I'll always feel guilty about that. He must have been desperately unhappy.
