My Congrats to you and Mrs Sewer Rat. Better plant a few more rows for the extra mouth you will have to feed

Congratulations to you both. Hope Iona is not too put out as she has been the queen for such a long time now.

Congratulations Ratty.I thought I read something about a new addition to your clan a while ago on 'What I did Today' but wasn't sure if I'd got the wrong end of the stick.

Well I think that we can all guess what that 'what I did today' was!

Thank you all.
In response to Mandy's comment about Mrs Rat taking it easy - she's been on Easy Street since she met me
And to SueA - could have been the impending birth of baby Rat but may have been the arrival of our puppy Charlie, a Springer x Collie.
Anyway, thank you all again for your messages of condolen - I mean congratulations

Nicos you sop
Mrs Rat is complaining of being tired all the time - but as I pointed out to her, she has always been like that anyway. No sickness yet - she didn't suffer with Iona so maybe she's one of those women who just gets even lazier instead of ill
