This morning started off just like the weather - blustery! We were woken by a crash coming from the living room. 'Cheese', my husband and I both exclaimed. We set off at a dash. Yip - our naughty cats had once again tried ever-so-hard to make a meal of dear little Cheese - the hamster His cage was upside down. lid open and sawdust everywhere! Fortunately we found Mr. Cheese sleeping in is wee house - safe and sound. I swear the good Lord watches over that hamster. He has had numerous lucky escapes.
What a day of wintry weather here in England! It has been a day of sunshine, followed by snow showers, followed by sunshine, followed by snow showers... :o)
Lessons are finally done for the day, all the laundry is washed and on the line (indoor clotheshorse and radiators) and tonight's supper is on the go. Which leaves me some time to grab a cup of coffee and a quick pop in visit here at 'Under An English Sky.'
