An everyday tale of our life as liveaboards on our narrowboat with our cats Soona and Sid. Thursday, 30 June 2011. Just one of those weeks. After a 7.30am start we got to Reading Tesco moorings for 9am and by 10am I was collecting my repeat prescription from the Post Office, so far so good but when I got to Boots I found a problem with the script as one of my regular meds wasn't on the list and I had taken my last tablet in the morning ( cutting it fine, I know! I went to the NHS walk in centre as. I thi...

Mossie - Here, There and Everywhere. The Peregrinations and Cogitations of a Retired Colliewobble. Thursday, 18 September 2008. The Elephant in the Garden. 8220;Wales, Powys, Mossie. Home”. I’d let them know pretty quick. So I demolished a couple of spuds with gravy, a bit of scone and a jelly baby. Never had a jelly baby before. Made my teeth bounce a bit. On reflection, think I’d rather have the spuds or scone. But I did get to visit the Man-with-the-Cat and The Cat with the Little Dark One. I like wee...

Mossie - Here, There and Everywhere. The Peregrinations and Cogitations of a Retired Colliewobble. Tuesday, 6 January 2009. A Home for Poorly Boys. We wished everyone a Happy New Year over and over again. I even learned to say it in Cat. Blwyddyn Newydd Dda. I let her carry me to the car and then carry me indoors. After all, it don't matter if she gets a bit more colliewobble hair on her coat since it ain't fit to be worn for work at the moment. Then I let her give me a jacket potato. Oh mossie you poor ...

Mossie - Here, There and Everywhere. The Peregrinations and Cogitations of a Retired Colliewobble. Wednesday, 17 December 2008. The Collie in Winter. But on the really cold evenings, I need a bit more warming up again with another blanket. Of course, if the Little Dark One is here, then. They don't half talk some rubbish. Chatted the Upside Down Girlie up a bit. Tried the blarney. Said I had sad eyes. Oh Mossie, you look so cosy by the fire all wrapped up that I just want to hug you! Out with the old.
