Hilly RIP

-
Friday was a very sad day for us. Our beloved cat Hilly passed away.

She was over twenty years old and had been on medication for an overactive thyroid for over eighteen months.

Sadly, a side effect of the drug is that kidneys are affected.

We took her to the vet as she was restless and spending a lot of time trying to go to the loo.

Despite their care she continued to deteriorate and we had to make the decision to allow the vet to put her to sleep. We couldn't let her suffer any more.

The house is very empty without her and we will miss her terribly.

I am so sorry for your loss Paul. Never easy losing one of our furry loved ones, especially one you've had for so long.

Hugs to you and Claire.

At the southern entrance to Glen Coe  The only factory custom bike I have ever ridden before was an early Yamaha XS400 back in the early Eighties. It had not endeared me to custom bikes! After a trip to the FIM Rally in the Czech Republic in 1995 with a riding partner on a Suzuki Savage, I had begun to think that although not actually my cup of tea, with real perseverance, these bikes could be more than 'canteen cowboy' outfits. Near Loch Ness So it was with a bit of trepidation that I picked the bike up from Ken Fulton, the SOC's magazine Editor (at the time), who had in turn ...
