So… we went to Surrey this weekend, small white rocket-beast and I, to stay with my very favourite people in all the world - the farming family who introduced me to Working Cockers back when I was a young veterinary graduate, who let me pick strawberries while pretending I was seeing pig farming practice, who took me hawking and ferreting and let me drive their tractors… (and, since we’re here, we might mention that we won the Gamblers…
very happy person and puppy)
And now they have a cat, Miss MoneyPenny, one of a series of Cats with Attitude who have ruled the farmhouse over the years… and this is her, combing her own face…
