Where are the Cheerios?

Apparently England only has 4 Grain and Honey Nut Cheerios, this is absolutely no good to man nor beast, the beast being Toby. If anyone knows where I can get just plain old Cheerios please leave me a comment, this is bad, very bad

It's Christmas...

The tree is still standing, its a bit bedraggled but at least its still there for the day, or am I counting my chickens!

Toby has decided he definitely does not like shopping, poor thing has been shopped out recently, but I think its safe to say that its all done now, except the sales of course!

We are having a very quiet Christmas, just us for Christmas day then us and both sets of grandparents for Boxing day, as we're not feeling well, all the usual runny noses for the time of year its just as well.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, I shall update soon with some pictures

So we made it back in one piece, took possession of the keys to the new house and promptly had a gas leak and had no heat or hot water for several days, the gas man said we were lucky it wasn't cold, I assume he was joking on that one!

Toby is adjusting to things here slowly, not surprisingly he is very clingy and poor thing has a horrid cold, I don't think he has ever really experienced temperatures as low as these, I don't care what that weather man says, he might say its mild but its really blooming cold.

We have bought him a new bed, he hasn't actually slept in it yet but he seems to quite like it, one of these fine days he might be tempted to lay his head down in it to sleep rather than just to play, but I guess these things take time. He has been very excited by all the new furniture, he even likes his new highchair.

I think today might be the day that I venture out and buy the Christmas tree, I am taking bets at how long it will remain standing before being pulled down.
