The cats mother

@dannyyoung35 @funnycnut Struggled to find any likeable characters. The setting looked wonderful though.

@funnycnut Not in the same league in my humble opinion.

This was unbearably awful.

Reform-led Durham council cut off funding to the annual Pride celebrations. So trade unions launched a fundraiser to save it, eventually raising more money than was cut. Which means this year's Pride will be bigger than ever. In the 1980s, the LGBT+ community raised thousands of pounds to help striking miners and their families. When we stick up for each other, we can achieve anything.

@bob_wynn Hardcore! It’s been 31c here, a bit much for them.

@BenchSue Sensible, our 4 have been out all day.

Our L30 mountain lion is struggling in this heat.

@bob_wynn Mine were out early doors but have spent most of the day indoors like this.

@BenchSue Today has been a struggle.

@bob_wynn Adorable

Bunk beds.

@bob_wynn @Walshag Wouldn’t expect anything less. Happy birthday Violet.

@Walshag She has caused a stir in the close today with her Houdini antics.

Violet is 7 today.

@CarolMaps @thesmithsltd He’s such a real family man, so much pressure.

@BenchSue @thesmithsltd His daughter messaging from a bomb shelter is bound to put him off his stride. Even his interview isn’t him.

Went out out. Matched my makeup to my jimmies. Saw @thesmithsltd who are such a bloody lovely bunch of lads. Made it home in time to sit in my biffs and watch Usyk 🥳

@CarolMaps @thesmithsltd Another good payday for them.

@BenchSue @thesmithsltd I can’t cope with a rematch. I need a Valium.

@CarolMaps @thesmithsltd Yes, all very strange.

@BenchSue @thesmithsltd I would have let it go to 12. He would have finished it in the 12th. It’s got rematch written all over it.

@CarolMaps @thesmithsltd The other corner aren’t happy with the stoppage.

@BenchSue @thesmithsltd I think I’ve burnt about 2000 calories getting up and down

@CarolMaps @thesmithsltd I’m on pins here.

@BenchSue @thesmithsltd Watching most of it through my fingers.

@CarolMaps @thesmithsltd Same, this has shocked me.

@BenchSue @thesmithsltd I can’t cope. I absolutely love Usyk. I’ll be gutted if he doesn’t win.

@bob_wynn She’s looking so well.

Peggy, a cat with attitude.

@bob_wynn Not sure that she knows how to get to Liverpool.

@BenchSue Ruby might have heard about the buffet.

@bob_wynn Chopped down this spindly conifer earlier as Ruby had used it to execute a Violet style escape.

@bob_wynn The buffet is a big plus.

@BenchSue We're talking about stopping our cats getting out and here is Smudge longing to move in.

@dannyyoung35 Same here, knew it had to come but hoped that we’d at least get the last year of his contract.

Very struck by how much the confirmation of his departure is affecting me. I’m sure I’m not alone in this. It’s a measure of the man, what he meant to us and the scale of his achievements.

@bob_wynn She escaped about 5 years ago through a small gap in the old fence which we subsequently replaced. She was considerably slimmer then than she is now.

@BenchSue Naughty Ruby, they always find a way out.

@bob_wynn It was last night, was absent when I called them in at 9pm. No sign of her around our road despite going out a few times. Eventually appeared at the back gate at 1.30am.

@BenchSue Did she get far?
