Le Touquet 2013
So – we went from 'we're not going to Le Touquet this year' to a large group heading off last weekend in the dismal chill, hoping against hope that the forecast would perk up – and it…

Supreme Grossness
All hell just broke out at Chateau Hawkes. Mojo enters garden from Stage Left, with small bird clamped in feline jaws Scrumpy clocks the cat – and the prey – and deftly rips it fdrom Mojo's jaws Mojo counters, with a swiping paw from the right, rapidly repeated until Scrumpy is backed into a corner.…

Anniversary Prezzies
So then, 2nd wedding anniversaries appear to be cotton / canvas as a theme. The big question for me was – would Hawksey prefer a picture of his dearly beloved, attentive, thoughtful and stunning wife or one of his rag-eared smelly, weeing-on-the-rug Spaniel?

Stunning Nursey Wedding
Aaaaaaah, me and the Mister had a totally fab time at Hannah & John's wedding at Berkeley Castle last weekend. Doesn't he brush up rather nicely in his Master of Ceremonies outfit? And you can even cop a look at the bride's poshy hairdo in the background… (Nice photo Nicola L!) And all the more…

A quick nip to Hollandia
As ever, managed to time my latest trip to Holland not quite perfectly, missing all the fervent orange furore over the abdication of the Queen in favour of her son by a mere 24 hours – at which point the only proof that Holland had 'gone large' in its understated Cloggy way was an acrylic flag…

Quick Prof update
So, got the usual scores on the doors back from Prof's assistant Linda yesterday, post seeing him on tues this week. Had a feeling that they would still be creeping up – because that is precisely what they are doing - the days of it all staying pretty much non-readable and stable are sadly no longer…

Next Prof
The eagle eyed among you may have spotted that I was due to see Prof last Friday.. Given the late flight and me not fancying having the appointment ruin a very good weekend, I put him off till tomorrow. A minor victory – OK not really even a victory, just a shoving backwards of the…
