Yes I am Catz signifigant other..I have visited Portobello twice, the first time I did not have time to appreciate it....It was Christmas, Mr Catz and I were being wed at Gretna and then new year....the second time I saw it was about 3 or 4 years ago, I had more time to really sight see.....and get to know the flavour...Most enjoyable....

I look forward to our conversations.

Hi Mrs Catz,

I seemed to have missed your appearance on this thread til now. :oops:

Looking forward to hearing your side of things for a change. That man of yours does go on a bit sometimes. :wink:

Hope all goes well with the forthcoming move. The new house looks great and I hope you'll all be very happy there once you settle in.

Mrs Catz, no doubt you'll be supervising Mr Catz packing all the boxes [but not, perhaps, the fine china and crystalware!! :wink: ]. How are the cats taking all this upheaval?? Will they know what to with a garden?? :cat:

ECM, Dadaist and Poppy, thank you for your warm welcomes. :D :D

All the cats in the house are now constantly whining and moaning, due to all the boxes and stuff ready to move (this includes, and is mostly.... Mr Catz!! :lol: :lol: ) :cat: :cat: :cat:

Poppy......Packing will be done by myself as I'm married to a man who can turn a 20 piece china set into a 40 piece china set if not supervised!! :? :?

also high fences in the garden so hopefully they will keep to there domain ( they are house cats, when we picked up the older one (Buddy) at the pound he was declawed, so no roaming for battles for him!!) and Willow is agoraphobic so is terrrified of large open spaces, and the outdoors!! :shock: :shock:

Welcome to my life!!!!! :roll: :roll:

Thanks for the warning Poppy. I'm not a huge follower of Aggie and her scary looking blonde henchwoman (as the state of my abode will testify!), but even a quick glimpse as I channel hopped would have freaked me out. :oops:
