April 24, 2005

Went to Wolverhampton to see Lucie Silvas last night – not really the most exciting of places, & the venue looked more like a school hall, but the music was great. First night of the UK tour, hope she goes to some better places! Support act was her guitarist – Richard Lobb who was pretty [...]

Have lost a kitten – Tigger went out yesterday evening, haven’t seen him since. Sure he’ll come back when he’s hungry, or once he’s finished exploring the local area… Nala has been yowling a lot, must be missing her brother.

There were other more reasonable ones, but once you’ve been around a 6-bed mansion it’s a bit hard to bring yourself back to reality. Quite a good way to spend a Saturday morning, certainly cheaper than [...]

Oh dear, pointed she who must be obeyed in the direction of new houses at the south of Lincoln. So guess where we’ll be going Saturday…..?

Emlyn & Bernie came down for the weekend – a very exciting time out in Lincoln! At least it was quiet without most of the students; I do miss the long holidays. Managed to get the lawn cut, which will probably disapoint the kittens as they liked playing in the undergrowth. Am now full of [...]
