Aww, bless her!

Maddie must be knackered today - she's been snoozing for about an hour now despite all the movement going on around her (we are trying lighting the wee stove this evening) and it's right next to where she's curled up.

And that's another thing - look where she's sleeping! In the travelling crate! Yes, the very one I bought at enormous expense (don't tell Richard) for her and which she has been resolutely ignoring for the last two months. 

Truly Christmas is arriving!
