  1. Jill, I’ve stoked it up with Gourmet catfood. All gone quiet now after a couple of hours of frenzied activity while it was collecting bedding

  3. Same here. Gourmet for breakfast. I make do with a boiled egg but then I'm a lesser being! Do keep us informed about any babies. Hedgehog population desperately needs to increase.

  4. Jill, the Goumet stems from when my little cat had to have her pelvis pinned together a couple of years ago and when she came home she wouldn’t eat dry food. Now her and her mum have a tin between them in the morning and dry for the rest of the day. The hog likes the chicken one too. Will keep an eye out for baby hogs.

  5. I am not saying anything of the sort. I do not presume to tell you, or anyone else, what to do; firstly because I have no right to do so and secondly because what you and other people do generally doesn't interest me one iota. However, trying to 'inform' people about the darker corners and off the beaten track areas of party politics, etc, is just another form of proselytizing, to me. No different from the Jehovah's Witnesses who stand for hours on street corners offering free bible courses and what they perceive as salvation. They, too want to open people's eyes to what they beli

  7. You may have a pregnant female. Lucky you. Gourmet cat food, eh? If they were sociable creatures, she'd be inviting all her friends round. Fortunately for your pocket, they're even more antisocial than me!

  8. That's rather a condescending attitude towards others; and also a very politically-biased statement. (And I'm definitely no great supporter of the current Tory Government). Some people - although not me - would say that those 'Tory machinations' are exactly what the country needs at the moment. They fully understand what is being said.

  9. Why do you feel the need to influence others? What is your motivation for so doing? Is it because you think you know better than they? Is it because it feeds your ego if and when you succeed? Is it because you want everyone to think as you do? The world would be a wonderful place if everyone saw life through your eyes? People have their own eyes. Please grant others the courtesy of thinking for themselves. Their thoughts, ideas and beliefs are just as valid as yours, you know.

  10. It makes our village’s ‘Open Gardens’ look a bit tame! Many years ago an old lady, a keen homemade winemaker, organised a ‘tasting’ in her garden. There were no grapes involved in the ‘wines’. I’ve never seen so many people totally legless. Sadly the occasion wasn’t repeated.

  11. Our Wine festival has just finished tonight. Food and wine , what more do you want. There were 22 wine producers from around this area and 22 groups offering different types of food from Tagliatelle to sandwiches. My daughter made Gnocchi with Castelmagno and cream sauce. She went through 14 forms of cheese each weighing about 8 kg . My son didn’t participate and decided just to keep his restaurant open and serve drinks and cocktails. He said he’d gone through almost 11 liters of Gin. There were street musicians playing all 3 days each one different from the others. To start we bought our win

  12. If a problem occurs you have 2 options either you can do something about it , so no need to worry or you cannot do anything about it so again no need to worry. My friend has recently been diagnosed with Parkinson’s, he became fed up with people giving sympathy to him, now if anyone starts on that he tells them in no uncertain way no I don’t worry about it I have more chance of be killed by being knocked down by a bus and I don’t dwell on that. I think he has a great attitude.
