Pink Floyd & Smudge the cat !!

Good afternoon all !!

I wasn't going to write anything today - mainly as I'm knackered from lack of sleep, last night + we've had a very hectic day, doing this, that & the other.... but - I thought, "why not" and here I am !!

It's a little after 6pm & B is in bed already.... she is feeling a little crocked & decided to have a very early night. Not that I blame her - it's no fun having a headache, on top of being tired out as well.....

We were both down here, in the living room, in the small hours, having a drink.... mainly as neither of us were feeling too brilliant !! Oh well..... I'll be heading towards bed, myself, in a little while......

As for the rest of the family... well, we've not seen anyone today. We did go around to the M & M's place, a little earlier, to drop off a package & to leave a little note. Apart from that - we've seen no one at all !!

The main reason - for being in town, really early this morning, was to take Smudge, our oldest moggy, to the vets. "Wow" - that was an expensive few minutes !!

All in all, it came to £136.50 !! But - the good news is, after a quick once over & a couple of blood tests.... he is fine - just old & knackered - a bit like me, really !!

I told the vet, from the outset - I was not going to have anything major done, to him.... no big surgeries, or stuff like that. She seemed to understand - after all, he is 13 years old & we - B & I - did not want him to go thru' too much, given his age & stuff.

We were worried, because he had lost sooooo much weight, over the last few months..... but, we're all putting it down, to something he ate - maybe from the fields around us (you know what cats are like) and, hopefully, he will gradually get better, fatter, as the months go on. Bless him....

His blood tests, showed no sign of infection or trouble like that... so, life is good - all 9 of them, depending how many he has used up !! It was worth the cash tho' - just to have him looked at & to have the "all clear" so to speak !!

Right - before I go... the music of the moment... well, it's just been 3 tracks, from Pink Floyd's Wembley November 16th 1974 concert. They are:

1) Shine On You Crazy Diamond
2) Raving & Drooling
3) You've Got To Be Crazy

They were released on Floyd's re-issue of 'Wish You Were Here' album.... well, one of them, at least !! There have been a few of them now & that's a fact.... oh well...... more about that concert, another day.

For now, I will away..... things to do & stuff like that !! I thank you all, for logging in & reading my words.... until next time...

Bye Bye
