Looking After Your Pets in the Warm Weather

By PetsNo Comments

It’s been warm recently, hasn’t it? With the warm weather we need to take extra care of our pets. Here’s some tips:

  1. First make sure pets have got plenty of water to stay hydrated. I like to put water in the fridge beforehand so that it’s nice and cold.
  2. Make sure there are shaded areas in your home, that pets can chill in.
  3. Don’t let them outside. This tip might seem cruel, but pets can burn their paws on the heated tarmac.
  4. Never leave a pet in a hot car.
  5. Groom your pets (if required) and keep on top of any professional grooming.

  1. Too Much Music
  2. Do the Television
  3. Voices (feat. Kylie Minogue)
  4. I Used To Be In Love
  5. Really Big Deal

  8. Devil Came Down Dancing
  9. Mess of Me
  10. Doses (feat. Big Freedia)
  11. Radio Eyes
  12. Diamonds Don’t Burn

My favourite track is Last Man Dancing. You can buy the album on Amazon here.

A New Sofa

By Happiness & Joy, Home, ShoppingNo Comments

At the weekend I went sofa shopping at ScS. I bought this gorgeous and super comfortable sofa:

While the Sales Rep went to discuss my purchase with a colleague, I took off my shoes and tried out the rug. On his return, I said:

Let’s talk about the rug. – Me

After some negotiation, I bought the rug too. It is honestly the most comfortable thing I’ve ever had underneath my feet.

Whilst in recovery from Pneumonia, I’m slowly sorting, cleaning and revamping my life at home.

Now this gorgeous sofa came with a considerable price tag, so I’m not taking any chances with it. Especially when considering my cats. So I went to B&M and bought three throws (images of the patterns below) and two cushions to match:

Throws 1 & 2
Throw 3
Cushion 1
Cushion 2

I have to wait a few weeks for the sofa and rug to be delivered. But I’ve already chosen the perfect corner for the sofa to be placed in my living room.

Write soon,

Antony
