    This little one is being cared for at my local rescue. When a cosy home is required, there's nothing quite like hedgehog engineering .

    What's your weather like 2026

    It is 1f -17c and the guessers say we're going to fly up to 12f -11c. The skies look clear so that will give us some bonus sunshine :)

    Oh dear, I'm one of those where the FoxWatch stopped working just 7 days in use. I contacted them asking for the return and I want my money back.
