It seems like she'd be hopping and running and barking if she were really worked up :))<br /><br />Nadege brings up a good point about the Chinese drywall! I hope they've pulled it all from the stores by now.<br /><br />I was making a worksheet for Spanish today and I named the cat Bertie :)))<br /><br />JudySeine Judeet (Judith)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07407353544376132484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-47228154080863959852010-04-15T23:36:39.089+02:002010-04-15T23:36:39.089+02:00Ah yes, the inevitable French bureaucracy.

Will you leave it as a single open space (with bath) or divide it?

I have now printed a wonderful page of the two photographs of Callie looking at Bertie up the tree and Bertie peering out. If only the picture of Nicolas Sarkozy was on there too! I am sure they will all be the best of friends eventually! Perhaps Mr Sarkozy will ask them both to improve his popularity!<br />I have a furious Scottie downstairs who hated his coat being cut today and now cannot go out as it is FREEZING here in Sussex. (Please tell Jean to wait a while before coming home). Sitting OUTSIDE for five or six hours the other day - goodness, we are still in VESTS! Never mind, the rhubarb is coming up and I can't wait to cook Walt's rhubarb and strawberry tarts again. At least Bertie is taking your thoughts away from the renovations!! Hope all is peaceful again soon.

Just like a cartoon. Poor Bertie. But I don't blame Callie for reminding him who's boss and who was there first.Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726164724131916224noreply@blogger.com
