Problem solved... I'm feeling really sleepy now. But I've got to take some cats to the vet. I promise it's definitely not for revenge reasons.

In Bulgaria some of our geese are still here but the lakes have just about gone. Will we ever have rain again?

These are terrible, terrible times Ralph. I've tried writing about this horrific situation myself but I can't find the words to describe the horror and dread that I feel inside.

Well done...

Great writing Jane, to the extent that you're making me feel like I'm at a point somewhere between inadequate and obsolete.
So I'm going out now to cut the grass.

Nice poem! Nice story!
But did his uncle always carry a screwdriver in his pocket? It sounds to me like it may have been a bit uncomfortable.

Lovely words Jenny.
They make me think of our dog, Snezhinka. We rescued her from the street when she was a pup so she's still a bit wild, spending a lot of time alone in the forest. I'm sure she has delusions of grandeur.
