When the hideously low-class Rab C. Nesbitt decided on TV this holiday to become Rab In Hoodie, we were treated to the iconic opening of the...

My sweet silver Jaspa, who will be 20 in March, snuggles up with her sometime foe Dandy, who is 17-and-a-half. Bless.

Yuck. Very unpleasant episode. Stone baby syndrome indeed. But then we do get Bobby "in the dark".

But how could I resist sharing two tempting tiggers with you? Sweet Melati relaxing.     Hunky Jae Jae snoozing.   Have ...
