Wow - Jiffy Would Have Been SUPER, SUPER Annoyed

[debris4spike]

As I sat having my cup of tea in my conservatory after lunch there was a loud "crash" ... and a cat landed on the roof.  Oh boy, would Jiffy have been super annoyed!  He had read the bit in books that say dogs & cats are natural enemies!  Oh well, the cat went & the roof was OK, and once I had recovered from the shock I enjoyed the rest of my cup of tea!

So, in a minute I have a last set of photos of Jersey for you.   I could keep on posting photos for ever, but this will be it for you all now.  Hope you enjoy, and have enjoyed them all  - it was a super trip.

But, before I post this -


22. Have you ever donated blood? If not, why not?

Hate to say it, but no.  I have gone to do it 3 times over the years, but each time had health problems that cancelled out my offer.

I think that's one of those times where good intentions really do count. If they won't let you donate, what can you do?

That's what I thought - half a gold star!

That would have been the high spot of Jiffy's day We have had a lot of gulls landing noisily on the conservatory roof over the years, and we get visiting cats in the garden, but we've never had a cat land on it!!

I tried to donate blood - but they could never get more than half a unit, despite BP cuffs and trying both arms each time. Then, when they gave up, I would feel so faint that I was a 30 minute bed-blocker! So after the third of fourth time they told me to go away and never darken their doors again :P

Oh Jiffy would still be glaring at the roof looking for another cat to arrive.

I'm glad it wasn't just me - the last time I went to give blood and they did the iron level test and basically decided I needed to receive blood as the level was so lo!
