One wee happy note

Got a sweet card back from the former neighbours, who got the baby blanket and say they're delighted, totally different from the usual girly pink crap (no 2 is likely a girl).

And settling into Reading, for them, is working out, though their cats are enjoying a Dorset village holiday til they're permanently settled into a mortgaged house.

I miss them, and their cats both - they have a charming Laurel and Hardy pair of tuxedo cats with character.

For general springy cheer, see some lambs enjoying their trip up a mountain in Lombardy:

What's not to love?
