Chris away

Chris has gone to a conference in Harrogate for three days, so before friend Nige calls down tomorrow night, I have a good 24 hours to catch up with a pre Christmas "spring" clean.
Albert was let out this morning for his second jaunt out of the cottage....and did come back to the safety of the kitchen after an hour or so.....(I did catch myself standing at the garden gate waiting for his return like a parent at primary school!)
William (right) goes for his haircut on Thursday...boy does he need it
