I can highly recommend Emmaus charity shops if you ever come across one.

There's one between here and Cambridge. But, as almost every other charity shop around here, they are spendy. The best one is a community project thing in the next village along, but they've been putting prices up recently as well.

Too many antiques and collectables shows on daytime TV if you ask me...

Maybe her opinion is different.

's not. Andy and I have a good bit in common.

I just **LOVE** that film.

When we took the girl to Euro Disney a while back we went on the Ratatouille ride countless times. Just when we thought she couldn't love it any more, it broke down mid ride, the emergency lights came on, the route out was illuminated by glow in the dark rat footprints and we all got to walk out. And they gave us another free ride. Still one of her Best Days Ever 😂

It is for every Human cat assistant.

At least us cat folk don't have to do the "poo bag dangle" in public

In other news, the solar quote arrived and we are having fish and chips tonight.

Actually, that sounds rather cool!

I also like to eat ratatouille - but the vegetable dish, not the rat... Which reminds, it's a while since I made any, now there's an idea for the tired-looking peppers and courgettes that need using.

My devil may care approach to today's weather forecast was 100% successful. Not a drop has fallen all day and the sun's taking a quick break behind a cloud before returning to business as usual.

We've missed all the forecast showers as well. Looks like the clouds dumped their contents on the other side of the Hundred Foot.

Of course, I went to Littleport by car...

She was quivering with excitement at following the rat footprints to leave, and the only slight disappointment was that the free ride didn't break down too

I love a good ratatouille.

wow, I'm not even awake for 19 hrs a day

I haven‘t been running it continuously whilst timing it! I’ll time it in one hour blocks. Turn it off as necessary then test another hour when it suits. It’s now up to 21 hours off one charge.

Cats have been fed. Soon it will be time to feed me.

It's going to be a "look what's in the fridge and see what needs eating" kind of night.

We were supposed to build a pavilion for our stand at the artists market this afternoon, but there's force freakin' scary winds forecast so it would probably be in the Black Forest by tomorrow morning, so we didn't.

Now the plan is to put it up at 08:00 tomorrow morning by which time the wind will hopefully will have calmed down...

I'm not a film person, but i just love animated stuff like Toy Story, The Incredibles, Sunny with a chance of Meatballs, Flushed Away etc. And I do like the Potterverse - films, books, fanfic etc.

I can't handle much tension so animations are about my limit.
