A New Kitten






Aren't they gorgeous. There are three kittens with a silver tabby mom, and a British Blue dad. My daugher's dad, P, is having the little male that is being held up in the last photo.

I'm sure he will settle in well with P and Cyril, and will appear here a lot in the future.

Marking progress

Apologies for very light blogging recently. I went to London last Tuesday for the A Level maths standardisation meeting, and so I was due to start A Level marking on Wednesday.

However on the same day I received another 200 SATS papers with a final deadline of 14th June! Consequently they have taken priority over everything else - so no gardening or even lounging in the sun!

All the SATS marking is finished - I need to complete the final admin tomorrow and then get on with the A level!

Garden Update




A lovely pink rose, a trough of mixed herbs, and white water lilies.

Photo Friday Challenge - "new"


This is an old photo from when the kittens were "new". Ohh so sweet! Posted by Picasa

Friday Catblogging whatever the weather.


Velvet is a happy cat whatever the weather. Earlier in the week it was cold and grey so he curled up in a lovely warm bed. Posted by Picasa


But yesterday the weather was warm and sunny, so I helped mom to hand the washing out! Posted by Picasa
