Good Friday

8.00am 9.30 am and 11.00 am Good Friday services. One of the church members gave us a packet of potatoes! Irregular shaped and small, but oh, so welcome! I made potato wedges for supper. Madison came over in the afternoon to play with Clawed. He now thinks that he owns the place. He loves to stalk us, pounce on our feet and bite our toes. He also enjoys sleeping and playing with the children's toys. He is totally weaned now and is very fussy. He looks at his litter box and gives a little mew if it needs changing, and does the same if his food is not as fresh as he would prefer. There is no cat litter for sale on St Helena – one simply has to use sand from your garden. So what happens when it has been raining for a few days, and your cat wants fresh sand in his box? You put a tray of wet sand in your oven, and dry it out. Then you have a happy cat.

  1. Potatoes! What a treasure!

    Clawed is a funny little cat! He certainly knows his own mind.

  2. Clawed is looking good - considering how you battled at the beginning with him. Well done. Seems he has you taped. Love you.
