Oh wow! The weather is gorgeous & yes its a Bank Holiday weekend, here in the UK!!! Usually you only have to say Bank Hols & it rains lol. I hope you are all enjoying this gorgeous weather. Nige is working today, but tomorrow we are off to Gentleshaw to help do the feeding (as they are closed) so extra Alfie snuggles!

Really nice! I like the three pearls on the bottom of your adorable image. Too bad about the image site. I hate when businesses have to close.
