whizz bang!

I haven't been home, which is why I'm not on IM... am currently at my mother's. I was right, Spike is much, much less upset by the bangs here. There are carpets and curtains to absorb some of the noise, the windows are smaller, there's one less outside wall, and there's my mother - she's one of those people that children and animals automatically love and trust. I've made good use of this many times over the years with hawks and ferrets and squirrels and all sorts, and where Spike is concerned she's as good as a DAP diffuser. He's still not very happy about all the bangs, but he's finding them more annoying than terrifying.

As for me - it's been a very good 24 hours, and I have some pics for you, but that'll have to wait till I'm home tomorrow - watch this space!
