Double Post

I went upstairs to take the bottom two pictures, but what I found first was that my wonderful parrot who behaves so well (!) that I'd left him out, was on the floor. Here's the result of his investigation into the news - lovely shredded newspaper decorating my newly vacuumed floor.

Yesterday I bought this necklace and bracelet at Bluewater shopping centre. Each link in the chain is a little leopard head, and bigger heads with outstretched paws make up the bracelet and pendant. They all have green glass eyes. They do earrings to match but there weren't any in stock, and I fear that they'd be clip-ons which give me headaches.

I defy anyone not to fall in love with them - and I hope my friend Susanna does, 'cos she has a gold version of the necklace coming at Christmas along with the matching earrings!
