Good morning, Elle!
Seems a dry day outside!
I am sure you will work something out for BB.
I don't know anything about Holiday Clubs, I'm afraid.
Well, I have a few things to do today.
Hopefully they won't take long!

Good morning, Rusty!
It is raining here.....but thankfully the heavy winds have dropped.
I have a potentially free day ahead.....so will use it to catch up with paperwork/ answering emails /and the like, until it is time for another dog walk.
How are you getting on with your own tasks....?
Are they indoor or outdoor jobs?

Hello, Elle!
Fine day here!
My wee jobs are both in and out.
But I may need help and to that end I am awaiting a phone call!
Have you phoned the Swanage possibilities?

Hi, Rusty!
The sun is venturing out …..albeit reluctantly.
What jobs do you have to do?
Have you managed to conjure up any assistance?
I have eliminated several holiday letting agencies, as they categorically state that they will not accept cats.
I have only one potential option left........but the property is ridiculously expensive, and far too big for our needs.
I am considering rethinking the whole situation!

www.unbeatablehire.com hire out mobile homes and they specifically mention cats! They hire out motor homes.

Hello, Ros!
I really do appreciate your efforts to help, but quite frankly, I cannot think of any thing much worse?
I am looking for some luxury!
And the practicalities of containing / restraining a cat in a motor caravan do not bear thinking about!!!

Hello, Elle.
A wee job on the guttering and one or two others.
Why not hire a big tent and go camping?
The cat could have plenty freedom on the camp site etc.
It would be great!
This is from my Hudl.
I suspect my Chromebook has given up the ghost.
I have it on charge just now, so will see what happens¡

Hi, Rusty!
I hope it was your "helper" who went up to fix the guttering, and you did not repeat your recent performance of climbing up on the roof?
A tent? Honestly, Rusty!
You do but jest, I hope?
You know how I hate camping!
And could you just envisage trying to keep a cat restrained and safe on a camping site?
He would get lost....
And in any case, because he is disabled, he cannot go outside.
But I am sure you must be joking......
But I have maybe made a little progress ....I have emailed two agencies to see if they would ask two owners whether we might bring the cat to their respective holiday houses.
The Agency staff very kindly agreed to do this ...so I am now awaiting the replies ...
I am not holding out much hope...but "Nothing ventured, nothing gained"!
I hope your Chromebook is okay......does it perhaps need a new battery?

Hello, Elle!
My helper did not make it today.
Hopefully tomorrow.
Camping is good fun, Elle!
I think you'd love it when you got the hang of it!
My Chromebook was nearly in the bin.
There was no response from it, but a black screen.
I held the on-off switch down for around a minute and it came on, with a message saying "Chrome did not shut down properly. Do you want to restore pages?"
And it appears to be normal, now.
I hope so. It's the best computery thing I have bought!
I am a fan of Chromebooks!

Good evening, Rusty!
Ah well, perhaps your weather might be more suitable tomorrow, for escapades upon the roof!
So long as you do not try to do this by yourself.....
Now! Some good news!
Against all odds, I have managed to establish contact with a very nice holiday accommodation owner, who has most kindly agreed that we can take both the dog and the cat with us to her property!
And has offered us favourable terms!
So I am well pleased!
We shall go for a week in October.
I am glad to hear that your Chromebook is working again!
