Cats are still in the old place seriously pissed off. Romeo ran behind the wash machine as soon as the first box went out the door. Reggie attempted to avoid capture but ended up in the kitty bathroom by himself because romeo was literally crying in the laundry room. Let them out when the boys and I left with the truck. They are still at the old place because I didn't feel like trying to wrestle Romeo from behind the laundry machines and Reggie needed to calm down. They will come tomorrow morning after the Lock Smith gets me back into the garage!
Now to bed...thanks all for your support.
Oh yeah...ian, I had a glass of Yellow Tail Shiraz with dinner. Auzzies make great wine!
