kitty I sent you [hugs] but 1000 messages later means that we need to open an extension.

It's been a strange day. Apart from worrying about the whereabouts of Greatnan I've not been very productive. The weather is behaving in an unsettled fashion. Inky clouds, Lashing rain. The promise of a brighter sky. Please keep coming to the kitchen. I would miss the company of you lot if you stayed away. smile

No wine bottle emoticon Mr Soop, which you might well need with all these well-wishers so have sent some vino in glasses to help the stores. Many Happy Returns! Hope dear soop has spoilt you on your special day! flowers for you both!

Gagagran Sun 03-Nov-13 11:53:41

p.s. I've left a birthday cake in the tin in the kitchen - hope you like it! Again - might be a useful addition to the stores!

Adding my good wishes for Mr Soop on his birthday. smile

soop Sun 03-Nov-13 15:48:54

Mr soop is in a swoon. He has never had so much female attention in a single day. I fear that it may have gone to his head. He keeps chortling grin

So, thank you all for being so kind and thoughtful. You've made his day special.

We enjoyed a delicious light lunch with wine. I'm a tad tipsy. wink We see that there is plenty of delicious food and the Champagne is ready to be shared...so, Slainte! The weather today has been mixed. Sunshine, rain and a hailstorm. shock Now it's blustery but dry again. Gorgeous clouds!

I know that you're all longing to see pics of the sofa. I'm about to add them to the album. Also, especially for the ladies, a photo of the birthday boy. sunshine

soop Sun 03-Nov-13 16:06:09

Photos now in the album. Would anyone like to sample kitty's delicious birthday cake. You're welcome to sample all the goodies that Mr soop's ladies have made and brought along to the kitchen. He looks rather pleased for himself. hmm flowers

MANY HAPPY RETURNS OF THE DAY TO MR SOOP!!

soop Sun 03-Nov-13 17:19:13

Mr soop has lit the log fire. Rory has joined him on the sofa. I shall say farewell, for now. Thank you for helping Mr soop to feel even more special than he already is. We're about to have a delicious, warming wee dram. We shall raise our glasses to you all.

I'm just so sorry that yet another day passes without any positive news regarding Greatnan. I must log off right now. Please, if there is further news, bags would you be kind and text me?

I shall return in the morrow. Enjoy your evening. Keep cosy and keep safe. smile xxx

Lovely Photos again soop. Sorry I am a bit late with Birthday Wishes for the lovely bearded Mr Soop. Good job I have a lovely beardie of my own to snuggle up to. grin

Charleygirl Sun 03-Nov-13 17:32:15

The photos are fabulous as is the house, not forgetting the new sofa. I do hope that you and Mr.Soop had a pleasant birthday evening together, with Rory of course.

Lona Sun 03-Nov-13 17:39:51

Your room looks lovely and elegant, yet still cosy and welcoming soop

What a lovely welcoming and relaxing home you and Mr Soop have! I can see why Rory has decided to stay. I can just imagine sitting on your new sofa with a large glass of the guid stuff and great conversation. Happy Birthday Mr Soop.

kittylester Sun 03-Nov-13 18:31:32

Lovely photos *soop and lovely room. Especially lovely young men! blush

I've recently discovered a extreme fondness for Bellinis - anyone fancy one [hic]. Happy birthday again Mrsoop. wine

LizG Sun 03-Nov-13 21:52:24

Just popped in to soop's world and had a look at your wonderful photographs. What a lovely family, beautiful home and your settee is amazing. I hope you don't mind but I couldn't resist and now I feel relaxed..please can I move in smile ?

gracesmum Sun 03-Nov-13 22:20:17

Are you others feeling as deflated as I am tonight? I really thought this weekend would bring a result and yet here we are one week on and despite incredible efforts and achievements by so many people - still no news. I am so reluctant to switch off and go to bed but none of the Carol threads are getting any new posts so there is presumably nothing new to learn. sad moon moon

Nelliemoser Sun 03-Nov-13 22:20:56

Soop Is the tartan rug on your sofa there for Rory to sleep on. If so you are the most hopeful cat owner I have ever met. wink xx.

The room looks lovely. Enjoy!

Galen Sun 03-Nov-13 22:27:46

It really doesenvy

LizG Sun 03-Nov-13 22:29:26

It is hard to leave isn't it gracesmum I have not been here much because I have a cold and don't want to pass germs around smile but I am still lurking and hoping. Keep strong flowers

whenim64 Sun 03-Nov-13 22:43:27

Can I just slide down in that char in the corner with somehing warm and comfortng that will make me sleep? I'm so tired but don't want to wake up to the same dreadful nothing in the morning.

Oldgreymare Sun 03-Nov-13 22:52:36

I keep staring at one thread after the other willing good news to appear.
Wrap yourself up in Soop's blanket WhenI'm sure someone will make you a hot toddy.

Nelliemoser Sun 03-Nov-13 22:56:38

OGM I think the blanket might be Rory's. You had better ask him nicely.

Nelliemoser Sun 03-Nov-13 22:59:42

"Wheni'm" I am not surprised! (((hugs))). I have a stash of stuff at present that should allow you a good night.

kittylester Mon 04-Nov-13 05:41:57

Morning, Rory! Not much going on in here yet, is there! And, still no news sad

I'll just brew some tea and start some toast.

Up early as we are going to the Norfolk coast for a couple of days - hope we can get a connection to keep up to date.
