They always join in. They like doing artwork too. My old cat used to be particularly good with inks. One quick flick of his tail and my mediocre work was transformed into a Jackson Pollock. I love seeing you in your spectaculars. That's a great frock too, with your lampshade trim. I now have to wear goggles for tennis, although sometimes I forget and that makes for an interesting game. Grown up stuff, urgh. Sounds like you are ploughing through it though. Ooh yes, I love it when they start putting the good stuff on again. I haven't seen River, might try and cath up with that, but yes to Unforgotten, Beck and the new Arne Dahl.

However a very large dental bill means that's going to have to wait till next year now. I love the whole sewist vs cat battle, it seems to be a long running battle.

Been getting them from there for a few years now and had no problems at all. In fact I have 2 pairs like yours. One pair of bi-focal and one pair just for reading. The reading ones were a tenner and the bi-focal were £35 cos of the lens. I've just had a red pair of readers ,same shape as yours ...£10.
