Tinker seems to be settling in well now, so we’re attempting to pair him up with another cat. Leia, a 9 week old female tabby kitten, arrived today so we’ll see how they get on together. We gave her the name Leia as she’s currently behaving like a proper little princess, hissing like a steam train whenever Tinker comes too close to her. Hopefully they’ll soon settle in and start playing with each other.

A group of us headed off to Alice Holt Forest to Go Ape for the afternoon, obviously making sure Rhys did all the most difficult routes as it was his Stag Do! In the evening we headed into Winchester for a curry and a few drinks.

I’ve been considering getting a bike for a while, as cycling to work and back a few times each week would be a great way for me to get regular exercise. Now I live closer to work it’s even more practical. However, with my joints I needed to make sure I would actually be able to use it, and not have to walk it up every hill. Then I heard about electric bikes, so I could get powered assist when needed but still get exercise as well.

I’m an Auntie again! Hayley gave birth to Oscar around 9am this morning. I’m sure Archie will enjoy having a little brother to play with. Dan & I are planning to head up to Bristol in June to meet the new addition to the family, give Hayley a chance to recover and get settled in first.

I headed into London to join Gilli and around 20 other girls to celebrate Gilli’s Hen Do. I started off badly, traffic meant I arrived at Gilli’s about 2 mins before the taxi, so had to get changed in less than 5 mins! Thankfully I wasn’t the only one who got caught in traffic, and we all set off for the evening.
We met at a pub, enjoying the sun shine before we really started the evening, with wine tasting at Vinopolis, where we enjoyed a lovely cocktail made by Gilli and sampled a range of wines. Then we headed off to Las Iguanas for a mexican buffet and more cocktails. Caroline & Susannah has prepared a quiz and told us all to bring a photo to put into a book for Gilli with a message. She was given the book as a ‘prize’ for completing the quiz, though it was interesting trying to complete the book without Gilli noticing.
We finished the evening at Guanabara, a latin club serving brazilian cocktails and a live band when we arrived. Lots of dancing later and we finally made it back to Gilli’s about 3.30am.
