Grey nails, a new cushion to decorate with charity shop finds, and some rearranging of furnishing and fittings all combined to make today a happy one. Viruses on the old computer are not so good, and I am still waiting for it to finish its scan so I can go to bed! It all looks very scary in computer terms but I am hoping the scan will do the trick. I have been looking out for grey polish for ages and finally found some today. Imade an exception to my rule of not wearing it on my fingernails as I love it so much. I even felt slightly glamourous doing the ironing!

I am decorating the cushion with scraps of a sparkly scarf and a small tapestry. I have been reading a lot of interiors books this week, and it must have inspired me. I have rearranged the bedroom based mainly on the needs of the cats-more on that tomorrow!

A bit blurry but it gives the idea.

This morning was a sitting by the fire morning, then a visiting the post office with parcels to send and a sitting in the cafe morning. Below are the love cats demonstrating love of warmth!

This week has been a very busy and exhausting one, but I did go on an interesting course about tree safety and how to identify potentially dangerous trees. The main fact that I have retained is that you only have a 1 in 20 million chance of being killed by a tree. The other one is that trees where bats are roosting are protected habitats and if you damage a bat's roost you can be fined-£5000 per bat!
