Planet baby calling!

She's going to have a baby! He's looking a bit unsure - lots of muttering about sleepless nights and a penniless retirement. Still that's what you get if you become a father at fifty. I heard him on the phone saying 'Once a woman's decided to have a baby there's bugger all you can do about it.'

I've heard all about babies from my mates. I suspect we'll get a bit of a bum deal when the baby comes - no more lying on the bed, jumping on and off the sofa. They'll probably forget all about us.

A cat called Alhambra

They have been away in Spain. Apparently they came across a cat called Alhambra, living in a palace, surrounded by fountains, gardens and lions - OK for some! While Alhambra basks in the sunshine, Starry and I are left all on our own. At least the lovely Stella came in and fed us twice a day. And of course we had the run of the house.
