Merry Christmas to all ....

Merry Christmas from Millie (who is not prepared to move away from the warm radiator)

and also from the latest addition to the family - Roxy.

20. Raise £100 towards the new Blue Cross shelter at Wherstead

I have been selling my hand made birthday and Christmas cards at work and have raised £100 towards Burts Big Build - the appeal by the blue Cross for £3m to build a new re-homing Centre at Wherstead. 

2 of our cats (Millie and Moxxi) came from the over-crowded Centre at Felixstowe, so I know how needed a new facility is needed for Suffolk.

I'm glad that I have been able to make a small contribution - but there is still along way to go if you would like to make a donation too!

1. Visiting the Island of Crete, Greece

To kick-start my list is the beautiful island of Crete. We stayed in Rethymnon which has a lovely shallow sandy beach, quaint old town, lots of shops, bars and restaurants! 

I had a great time and spent my actual birthday sightseeing in the town of Chania, shopping and drinking champagne cocktails.

I've been to several parts of Greece before but never Crete, but as usual, the Greeks were very friendly and there were also lots of cats around for Libby to fuss over.
