Meet Cocco & Polly :

Cocco is nicknamed Piss Pot Anny , she is a rescue that we got 3 Xmas ago due to an old man dying and his daughter didn't want her, so we took her in. She tends to wee though if the slightest thing is moved so the first 6 mths were a trying time in our household in Manchester, then as long as I didn't change The Son's room we were fine , however we moved to Shetland & what joy we have had , yeah right !!!!!! She is on her last life, my John Lewis rug is rotting as we speak in the garage, the sofa has gone to the skip. So the husband brought out our sofa's from storage , God help her if she ever pees on these. So Piss Pot Anny is her name, we are now on a plug in called Feliaway that is meant to calm cats , yeah right , sure it does !!!!!! And no my house does not stick of WEE , thank you very much as I know you were all thinking it.

Above her is Polly our Moggy that is an OAP & has come out of her shell since moving to Shetland, she actually tolerates us . Nothing more to say about our Polly as she's lovely as you can see. Cocco is lovely too but a very demanding Cat although I don't actually think she's a Cat.

Meet Tilley. No 1 Dog

Tilley is our first dog, The Husband wanted a laptop , I wanted a dog , we both got what we wanted. Tilley is The Queen , she acts like The Queen she is the queen, however we nearly lost our Tilley this year. If it wasn't for the Vets in Lerwick who said her belly does not look right lets do a an x - ray . So we had it done and they found a lump the size of a tennis ball on her spline and yes it was a nasty lump , so they operated with a 50/50 chance they took all of her spline with growth ( which I have a picture for & I want to put it on the blog as its amazing ) I even had a look at it when they had taken it out in a medical waste bowl it was amazing !!!! Much to our joy , yes joy Husband if you are reading this !!!! She is still around as the No 1 Dog My Tilley.

Meet The Husband

The love of my life, the pain in my arse , My Husband, ( The Husband ) and one of the only photos of him smiling as we were traveling back to Whalsay last year, this was on the Hendra ferry that is one of the island ferry's that transports us Islanders off Whalsay on a 30 minute ferry ride to mainland Shetland , yes folks the nearest Tesco's is an hour away & in rough weather let's say I do not I repeat have sea legs like The Husband or The Son does. But you will hear more of my ferry travels as time goes on. Anyway back on the subject of The Husband , we have been together for eternity , he is my rock, my best friend, but he also is that constant pain in my arse that enjoys driving me nuts. He knows what I mean when he reads this blog !!!!!!

The Girls !!!!!!

Meet Bella , (one of the girls )

She is our ( Shetland Dog ) , I managed to get Bella because The Husband wanted us to move to Shetland, so I said we need 2 more dogs if you want us to move , I managed Bella from him as we had 2 dogs at this point already. She's 18 mths and the most balanced of the 3, very friendly , VERY naughty ( nicks our hens eggs but I will introduce them later ) and is a howler not a barker a howler. Oh and she has her ' baby ' in the photo above , she also nicked and claimed brother bear from our son.
