You can lead a cat to condensed milk, but you can't make her drink.

Another Friday. Another Fat Club. Another fail! Clever Bird is currently having a proper pop at Hormonal Hannah and Freda Fretter for sending Baggy off track last week. She's being a little harsh though. Baggy didn't put any weight on, she just didn't lose the one pound she needs to lose to get her shiny sticker saying she's got to her target weight. It's a shame really, as the Slimming World eating plan is very simple to stick to, but the mini meltdown that Hannah gave Baggy last Saturday persuaded her she needed alcohol (lots of it) and comfort food (sticky toffee pudding, amongst other things). And lovely as they were, she really didn't need them. So, this week, she is determined! The Domestic Goddess rustled up a jacket potato for lunch and then set about burning off some more calories, packing yet more crates!

It's got to the stage now where both houses look as though someone's moving out. The Goddess is packing things that haven't seen the light of day for eight years! Freda Fretter is making Furry Mama worry for the furries because they know something's up, but obviously the don't know what. Minty Mutt is rather stressed and getting a bit clingy, but is okay as long as he stays with his Mum and Dad. Hinge and Bracket keep head-butting the crates. Furry Mama is particularly worried about The Hinge though, as she's showing signs of getting constipated again. A kind lady at Fat Club, suggested trying condensed milk with some warm water, as it worked for her pedigree cat. The Goddess bought some condensed milk on the way home. She mixed it with warm water and presented it to Hinge. She turned her little nose up at it and meowed pitifully. No way was she falling for that trick. Minty Mutt was head-butting Furry Mama optimistically. Bracket arrived and ate the lot..........
