Soop's welcoming and ever supportive kitchen,

What a beautiful cat Synonymous
Diamond art picture all done I can relax now!
will post a pic to give you an idea but it’s in 3D.
Welcome Milly and gillygran you will like it here.
Have a nice Evening everyone.

Smokie is a beautiful chap! Cat envy!

Jaxjacky hysterical isn’t it - my photo that is, we just fell about laughing.

I too would like to welcome you back Maw, you have always only had kind words to say xx

What spiffing news! Maw is back. Hurrah - and about time too. Welcome to the new ladies and birthday felicitations to Marydoll

Didn’t realise. Buon compleanno Mariabambola! xx

Wow Yia I can see the appeal. I’m not a crafter, whilst I admire those who are, I’ve just always wondered what all the craft items are ‘for’, but I can see with this.
I’ve been sort of busy, booked DD and GC’s into a mobile home for October half term a few weeks ago, I’ve now booked us into a hotel nearby for a couple of nights as a surprise. This could all go spectacularly wrong! But I hope not, it’s in Hastings, not been there before, so an adventure. Other than a Tesco delivery, a quick M&S local trip to pick up ordered jeans (sorry soop), that’s been it today...plus of course the most welcome return of Maw.
Have a pleasant evening all x.

Welcome back Maw and Hi to Rosie. It’s brilliant news.
I bring champagne ? ? (well it is a special occasion)
and posh petit fours in Maw ‘s honour.

This is truly A RED LETTER DAY‼️
Welcome home Maw and a big thank you to GNHQ too for allowing this to happen. I never thought it would be allowed. You do have a ❤️

I’m so happy!
I feel quite emotional.

Welcome Gillgran , Grannynise and Smokie. ?‍♀️

Yippeeeeeeeee, Maw is back! Great to see you again Maw, I love the pics of Rosie.
Welcome Gillgran.
What a handsome lad Smokie is, just gorgeous.
Susan, sorry to read about your daughter being poorly, I hope she`s soon on the mend.
Dragonfly, great to hear that it was nothing too serious for Dexter.
Now, meet Billy. He won`t keep still long enough for a decent pic, I`ll try again another day, but here`s a couple to be going on with.

That is one handsome cat Hellogirl

After a rather worrying day I opened Gransnet and discovered Maw is back - a huge smile lit up my face! Thank you! It's great news to have you back - long may it last! ..................

Oh Maw how brilliant you’re back!! That’s definitely made my day ! ❤️❤️

Hellogirl what handsome fellow.

Hello to beautiful Billy boy. We’ve a been waiting for you.
And a welcoming “Hi” from my Ruby.

Ruby is pretty, but she looks as if she`s daring Billy to put a foot wrong, lol!

Ruby is smiling on the inside Hellogirl but it doesn’t always show on her face ?

lol!

Lovely to have two new animals in the Kitchen!
I imagine you must have felt very much as I did, Hellogirl -that fur friend shaped hole in your life.
Frankly I felt it was about the last straw after losing Paw.
Oddly Rosie was born (whelped in proper dog speak) the day before Paw died.
Strange thought.
Tomorrow is Flynn’s FIFTH birthday! Hard to believe. D has spent every evening this week organising a Pokemon based treasure hunt for all his little friends round and about where they live and in the forest as of course he can’t have a “proper” party. I wish the weather could be with them, but I’m not holding my breath. Of all the years to need good weather so that we can meet our friends outside, or have a meal in a pub garden ?? I’m sure they will still have a lovely time.
I am planning to pop down on Sunday to meet them in Lloyd Park - waterproofs at the ready I fear.

Maw xx.

Happy Birthday to Flynn for tomorrow. It only seems like yesterday when he was born.
You`re right Maw, the house just didn`t seem right without a cat in it. Billy can never take Mia`s place, but he`ll make a good job of following on. Your Rosie looks a lot like Grace, doesn`t she, or is it my eyes?

I`m so sorry Marydoll, I meant to wish you a Happy Birthday earlier, and didn`t, so have well and truly slapped my hands.

Wow Flynn is 5 tomorrow. I don’t believe it. Hope he has a lovely day.
Maw the gang in the Argy wanted me to invite you in tonight (somehow we had Sir Tom Jones on stage with some can can dancers ?) I thought you’d be too busy catching up on all you’ve missed but it would be lovely if you’d pop in for a proper celebration next week. Drinks on the house, all are welcome ?

Drinks (pleural?) Doodle? I’ll be in there.
