Well it's Christmas again and the sun's out now. I have failed at sending cards to all the people i wanted to, i am sorry for that - and I have not shopped for presents as normal, 1 trip to Exeter is just not enough!
Maybe I should begin a campaign to 'Bring Back Christmas' - where on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day, the only places allowed to be working or open and charities (for the poor, homeless/animals/elderly etc.) and the emergency services.
Then maybe we can all enjoy it for what it should be - a nice holiday for relaxing and visiting people - rather than our rushed, '1 day only effectively just a big dinner' festivity of modern times.
I HOPE ANYONE WHO READS THIS HAS A LOVELY CHRISTMAS AND GOOD LUCK FOR 2010 X X X X

LOST CAT FOUND!
More good news from the NDAA today!
A cat had been trapped between 2 walls in town next to the Liberal Club for almost 2 weeks, living on rotten dead pigeons and standing on stones to avoid being drowned by all the rain we've had. People had heard it calling, but not bothered to do much about it, apart from one man called JUSTIN who made the effort to find out where the cat meows were coming from for so long.
He managed to get it out and it was virtually starved and hypothermic , it was brought into the care unit and has been there this week getting well. Today, a family turned up with a photo of their cat who had been missing since October and it was their Max!! Hurray!
Animals do sometimes turn up after being missing for ages, but it takes humans to bother to check small spaces and react when they hear animals calling out in odd circumstances.

Drake's Cafe
Next time you go to Exeter and the queue for Wagamama and Nandos is 50 people long, check out this little gem behind house of fraser, next to the old castle walls.

Christmas Puppies!!
Finally.... good news! Down at the NDAA we have a pregnant brown spotty dalmation who may even have already popped out her puppies overnight. No idea how many or what they are, but they will be small and very cute, and possibly named pudding, sprout, tinsel....
No horrible stories here today! a simple case of a poorly owner going into hospital and Widget needing to be cared for by people who can.
Anyone need a puppy??
