A healthy cat is better

So I took Charlie the cat to the vet yesterday. Got to get him healthy before his big move. As my life is also changing so too is his. He’s moving to live with Aunty Mary in Wales. Now, he is a healthy cat but I suspected that he needed some new vaccinations or such things and I was right. £110 later and a future (dental) booking he’s now *almost* ready for his move. We’ll miss him when we’re in Buenos Aires and hopefully we won’t be in for a cat custody battle when we try to reclaim him.

The former mainly because I it reminds me of the UK government bailing out failing mortgage lender Northern Rock earlier in the year and the recent US...

In this city it seems that stores of a type seem to be located in the same area... all medical supplies in one place, all wool shops in one place and now these.

Ølsen in Buenos Aires

Well Ølsen last night was great. It's in a stunning old warehouse with extremely tall ceilings and Scandinavian simplicity. The garden is a particular treat and a delight to enjoy when arriving. The food was good, although I wouldn't say that best and possibly not worth the price, it's not cheap, but the sharing starters with mini vodka shots were very good. After Ølsen, I came home and watched telly. I seem to becoming nocturnal.
