Hi it is late andI want to go to bed but thought I`d spend a few moments talking about my kids favorite subject…animals!! Flora..as indeed all the kids were delighted with 2 kittens found here..after telling my kids for weeks( and the point laboured after every rabies jab !!) we are all cooing over scabby kittens with gummed up eyes and our kids are playing with them and obtain some scratches by the fiesty wild things!!our freinds tell us not to worry so we wont too much!!

..killer turtle plants a bite right on the end of his finger..Seth cries..it bit me very hard..tears roll..but he is very brave and shows his blood to the camera so hopefully his mates at school can see yet another scar.Goodnight.
