Hello all....Nice to meet you - 3rd November 2006

Hello....
From the Gumbrells
Thats me... Caro, darling and much adored hubby, Jay, Danielle -youngest daughter still crazy enough to be at home, Emily - Jay's cutie pie daughter, who visits every other week.
I have two other daughters - Zoe and Amy - who live hundreds of miles from me with their respective partners Andy and Mark. Don't tell anyone, but at the tender age of 45 - Zoe is about to make me a Granny!!!!! How exciting... due anytime from the 20th November.
Also at our little house in East Sussex are our much pampered pets....
Charlie - very large black and white cat who yowls alot - especially at mealtimes, otherwise known as "hose"
Fliss - a delinquent cat from Manchester - is a stunning tri-colour, whose main aim in life is to trick you into fussing her and then she attacks with a fully loaded armoury of claws when you least expect it - aka "stumpy"
Marie - a powder puff cat of pure white fluff - far to posh for her own good (considering she was born is a stable - I don't think she remembers her humble begining) refuses to eat in the kitchen and will only take her meals in the dining room, now only answers to "princess tippy toes"
Garfield - what can I say - large ginger and white aptly named cat, eats anything he can (is partial to mouldy pies left by commuters at the station behaind our house) has a marvelous habit of "collapsing" right where you need to put your feet. earning him the title of "spanner"
Roxie - stunning sister of Garfield - a beautifully marked ginger and white who loves to chat with you has a very vocal range - nicknamed "Brrr" as that is generally her best chat starter!!
We also have a lovely Lionhead bunny called Leo - the cats love him, a fast growing Carolina Corn snake called Jake, and 6 fancy goldfish which I love to watch for hours.

Some of you may know my lovely big sister Libby - Woodlands World, she is the best sister in the world - admittedly she is my only sister - but I love her to bits and wouldn't want to change her for the world.

Well I think that will do for starters, I won't be able to update everyday like Libby does - basically cos I don't like computers much as I have to work with them all day!! With a bit of coaching I will try and get some piccy's and pop them on - 'specially the cats!!!!!

Catch you all soon...........
