And let the Vacation begin......

Rigel you hold my popcorn!, Jenny you hold my coke, come on Laureen lets get them back!, Susie must have locked herself in the bathroom again

Bye Jan! come back soon!!

Pixela! come on, sweet 'P' - you can do it! come back here to me!

Pixel slowly unfreezes & scampers back to her meowmy.

Pixel: I don't wanna be a star anymore!

ok, susan - who's still onstage?

I'm going to get some shut eye now everyone!.

For our last evening in Newcastle i've put us all up in a really expensive hotel right in the middle of town where weve just been.

It's called "Malmaison", and i've heard it's "very" nice indeed!!.

Thanks for visiting my home town!, i hoped you all enjoyed it as much as i enjoyed having you all, and remember!, my door is always open!!

See you all tomorrow when we go to Sarahs in Manchester

so long, farewell, auf wiedersehn, goodbye!

i'm heading out, too - see y'all tomorrow!

Hi all -- good to see Jan and Jasper, however briefly -- that guy is something else!! Hope Jan gets her computer issues sorted out soon, so they can be here more. Miss them.

It's a short stay for me, too. It's a crazy time for me and I shouldn't really be on here right now, but I'm having a spot of trouble concentrating on the matter at hand, so thought I'd get a little fix while I can -- no time tonight probably

Cats! AW, my fave. Good to see it again.

Food and drink in the theatre? Well, what the heck, whatever's going will probably give me a lift

Hello again! It seems CATS at the Theatre Royal was a hit among the TCS cats. Maybe it was the prior visit to the Pitcher and Piano bar that raised everyone's "spirits".
Wish I had been there but you were in the theatre at 4 a.m. here.

*looks around*

Where is everyone? Hello?

Must have been one knock out performance for the kitties to be so quiet....or else they are planning something.

Hi Heidi! I was wondering the same thing. Aren't we suppose to be on our way to Manchester?
I wanted to thank Susan for the great time we had in Newcastle but maybe we are still there...

I think we're in Newcastle for tonight and moving on to Manchester in the morning. I've barely been around at all for the Newcastle leg -- bummer! -- and I don't know how much I'll be here on Friday, either, but once the weekend rolls around, I may do better. I promise not to desert you all when you get to Vancouver, though.

We're here, we're here, but what a night! Apparently it is the 125th anniversary of the British Theatre newspaper, 'The Stage', in which auditions and things are announced. My three have bought it and say they're going to try for a chorus place in 'Cats'. After all, it would be even more authentic to have REAL cats playing in it!

Thanks susan, that was all great fun for us all. See you in Manchester.

Well, I think I'm turning into a pumpkin. I didn't get to spend much time with you, Susan, but it's quite obvious everyone who did had a blast. Thanks for having us!

Yes Susan, thank you very, very much. Newcastle is such a beautiful place.

Wish Susan would hurry and wake up, Sierra and I are ready for breakfast! Wonder what we shall have, this morning?!

Morning Stephanie!! and to you too Sierra sweetie pops!!! *Scritches Sierra*

Fancy breakfast?!



Stephanie i don't know if you saw this picture of Sophie back a few pages?!.

I took this with the camera on my mobile phone and it just cracks me up everytime i see it!! So un ladylike

That's so hillarious, Susan! Oh, Sophie, I know your Mum has taught you to be a more proper little lady than that! Oh, you must have just laughed and laughed when you took that one, Susan!

She was only a kitten at the time. It was bed time and i left her a Rosie in the bedroom while i brushed my teeth then when i went back in thats what i found! She was spark out!!!

Oh and i had to share "her" pillow!!!

So cute, Susan, perfect shot! It's only natural that you would have to share her pillow!

Breakfast looks wonderful , thank you! May I get some honey with my toast, please? Oh, I could sure use plenty of that fresh coffee right now! (4 more hours to go on the night shift!)

Morning Everyone!

Thank you, Susan for such a great visit to Newcastle! I thoroughly enjoyed it! Despite being two steps behind

Sorry for the delay everyone!!
Susan, have you fed the hungry mob?!

Shall we get on our way to the North West leg of our journey?

*Passes the toast and coffee to Stephanie*

There you go..........
