Today little Oscar will have been living with us a year! Looking back at the initial videos from when we were fostering the little chap I don’t think there was ever any doubt that he would be staying, and there have certainly been no regrets that he did.
Looking at the latest photo of [...]
After a very pleasant lunch yesterday I thought I would grab an hour up on the roof in the late afternoon sun and the latest issue of The Reader.
Seemed like I was not alone with that idea, as Oscar decided to jump up my knee and read it with me!
Maybe we should [...]
Last year it was Saidi’s turn to experience Christmas for the first time and this year it was Oscar’s turn ….. and despite the fact that we were all ill and the weather was terrible he had a great time. In fact it may well have been the poor weather in Spain and the fact [...]
Today Saidi has been with us two years, and will be five years, so a double celebration, which is a little like having your birthday on Christmas Day for her as both Oscar and Moreno get two celebrations as they have different days for their anniversaries and birthdays.
She has developed really well over [...]
Well with the exception of the Man Utd result that is! At least the stupid debate about taking Owen to the World Cup will surely stop now?
The theory is that if England need a goal in the last 10 minutes he is the man. What rubbish!! His miss kick in the penalty box proved that. [...]
Just had a very pleasant half hour up on the roof with Sands, the Cats, an espresso coffee and ……… the sun!!! Yes, the rain and wind have gone, to be replaced by the return of the sun here in Almerimar! Wouldn’t say it was sunbathing weather yet in this part of Spain, but it [...]
Just started 2010 with a very healthy brunch: fresh orange juice, espresso coffee with milk, mushrooms, scrambled eggs, tomatoes and smoked salmon.
The sun is shining, the rain has stopped but it is still windy, but it was such a pleasant meal sat in the lounge with the sun shining in and the cats asleep in [...]
Picked up some pizzas last night to eat in front of the TV with my parents, and as it turned out the cats!! We are not big Pizza eaters, and to be honest the lack of a good pepperoni pizza makes it an even less frequent event, but last night was the first [...]
First of December weather getting a bit chilly in the evenings so I thought it prudent to check the heaters to make sure that a) I could remember how they worked and b) that they worked.
Turned the one in the lounge on, all seemed to be OK so left it running for a while to [...]
Big Grown-up Oscar
Oscar, or Little Face is one year old today, so Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you ….
Rescued by Dawn and Nick who helps out with Sands Almerimar Strays from drowning in the marina he was destined for Germany until we had to Foster him for a while. He [...]
Sands and I have been married for 17.5 years, and have always tended to be a couple that are very comfortable in their own company. Neither of us have really ever desired groups, regular events, clubs etc. Sands tends to have a girls night out from time to time, but I tend towards the hermit [...]
Three years ago we picked a seven month old, thin, beautiful and remarkably friendly black kitten up off the street at the bottom of where we live. Within minutes he had eaten some food, drank some milk, and snuggled into my arms for a big cuddle. Moreno had arrived and changed our world around!
Without him [...]
Little Oscar is going in for his ’snip’ today bless him!
No food from midnight so we have taken all the food away from all three cats overnight so that he can stay out with them tonight. Then in the morning he gets locked in Sands study with no food (but lots of playing) until we [...]
Thought I would grab a last bit of sun up on the roof before what I am sure will be a cold, grey and wet few days in the UK. I wasn’t alone as when I woke up from a quick siesta little Oscar was on the sun bed next to me!! As [...]
Oscar has a new game!! He has found out that it is great fun to jump into the sheet as it dries on the washing line.
