It’s been a sad week or two. First off Tigger probably had conjunctivitis in his right eye, so kept it closed for a couple of days with brown sludge coming from it, then the left eye went the same, so we went tried to clean it etc, but on the Monday 31th October we called the vets, they saw him on the Wednesday and it turned out to be an ulcer. He went on some meds, pain relief, drops in the eye etc. Then Monday 7th he had clear liquid coming from the eye. We called the vets again and they saw him. This time they kept him in and planned on operating on Tuesday. So I left him there over night. They sedated him and got a better look, but found that the internal structures of the eye were damaged so opted to remove the eye. He’s in again […]
Today the shed was delivered. Because my back isn’t so great they off loaded it for me and stacked it neatly so that I can assemble at my leisure. They even went to the trouble of stacking it in the order that I’ll want the panels. Pretty thoughtful professionals. The other pictures are Tigger trying to help me learn C# language to program my Arduous.

I got two new tyres for the rear of the Volvo, also got it cleaned. This is a piece of glass pipe, a reducing fitting from 6″ to 4″ with the couplings for both ends. But first off, the cat, he does this every once in while, no idea why. I can only imagine that he likes the feeling of the plastic stuff on his paws. https://youtu.be/6KK2vRjJtpI [peg-image src=”https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-U7PZxss3QBY/WJor8jRmV6I/AAAAAAAA0Rw/fp74ffvrSFIizAIdvUehpepccYlwAiTeQCCo/s144-o/IMG_20170207_165704.jpg” href=”https://picasaweb.google.com/100446983108465419613/6384463742722168049#6384463741012301730″ caption=”” type=”image” alt=”IMG_20170207_165704.jpg” image_size=”5312×2988″ ] [peg-image src=”https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-5KP6QHjA5bY/WJor8shF3yI/AAAAAAAA0Rw/xSVhiCq8HroiZyihE_nLcZWeZ3NPmM6gACCo/s144-o/IMG_20170207_165653.jpg” href=”https://picasaweb.google.com/100446983108465419613/6384463742722168049#6384463743493201698″ caption=”” type=”image” alt=”IMG_20170207_165653.jpg” image_size=”5312×2988″ ] [peg-image src=”https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-2WdYhf2tYfY/WJor8g0kOwI/AAAAAAAA0Rw/MSVaEkgH0eURwAgC9wmHaedjhyqQDo_6QCCo/s144-o/IMG_20170207_165645.jpg” href=”https://picasaweb.google.com/100446983108465419613/6384463742722168049#6384463740353657602″ caption=”” type=”image” alt=”IMG_20170207_165645.jpg” image_size=”5312×2988″ ] [peg-image src=”https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ARwwLP_GH3o/WJor8gF8H-I/AAAAAAAA0Rw/LrV9gqb-48QjhHRoblMOe_tyVMTyi7fQwCCo/s144-o/IMG_20170207_075850.jpg” href=”https://picasaweb.google.com/100446983108465419613/6384463742722168049#6384463740158091234″ caption=”” type=”image” alt=”IMG_20170207_075850.jpg” image_size=”2988×5312″ ] [peg-image src=”https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-HVPTSO489JY/WJor8tGwf8I/AAAAAAAA0Rw/1D8ye-4p03k7BntBDTL_Rlsr5Ojj9KafwCCo/s144-o/IMG_20170207_075845.jpg” href=”https://picasaweb.google.com/100446983108465419613/6384463742722168049#6384463743651184578″ caption=”” type=”image” alt=”IMG_20170207_075845.jpg” image_size=”2988×5312″ ] [peg-image src=”https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-7vQGZIsk6jA/WJor8iqCfZI/AAAAAAAA0Rw/JoblICniwZ0KCmqBOTG2iCAMsXHTLnLSgCCo/s144-o/IMG_20170207_075138.jpg” href=”https://picasaweb.google.com/100446983108465419613/6384463742722168049#6384463740846374290″ caption=”” type=”image” alt=”IMG_20170207_075138.jpg” image_size=”5312×2988″ ]

Tigger has been bringing mice into the house, he’s gotten good at catching them and bringing them in unharmed. He then releases them to chase them about the house and they get away from him and hide, until they wander into one of our two humane mouse traps. This was last nights mouse.

That small brown toad stool that I posted a picture of the other week. Well it grew, as did the little red and white one, though that one lost it’s colour a little.

Finished putting the last coat of white paint onto the fourth wheel. With that done and being aware that the paint tin lid was no longer sealing, I chose to try to use up the last of the paint on the land rover. I now have white bumper and a variety of other white patches which hopefully will not rust!
