Kate & Kygal, I've just noticed you've both been made moderators, congratulations! A well deserved honor.
Kygal, hate to admit it but the dog had Witchita State in his bracket.
The first day of spring has the weather slowly returning to normal, much more seasonable. It's also nice that it's staying light later.

Thanks, Rachel! I'm feeling really honoured. We're having a rainy period, but as it isn't cold, I don't mind all that much (have to work anyway ).

A big congratulations to Kygal and KMK on their recent promotion. All the best to you both with your new enterprise.................. With regard to the pet food bill at work, I hate to think of how much it all costs with 3 dogs, 9 cats and 3 horses!!! Then there's the vet's bills. As far as the local vet is concerned I think they have some sort of season ticket, LOL. I have all of the fun and none of the expense.

PGG, so sorry to hear about your father, I'll keep you both in my thoughts. Since this holiday is so stressful, I hope your one in September is extra special.
LTM, had to laugh, this is the best way to enjoy a pet.
Kygal, glad you aren't carrying a grudge. The dog explained he just couldn't bring himself to root for a cat.
Aggravating day at work today. I distributed their exams via email with strict instructions not to open the email until they were ready to work on the exam. (They have a time limit.). One of my students opened the email by mistake (her own admission) twice. I've always told them I don't expect them to be perfect, but careless errors are another thing. And to make the same careless error TWICE? Within a 4 hour time span? She and I will be having a little talk.

Thanks LTM and PGG.
So sorry the hear about your father PGG. I hope he is well soon. I know it is stressful for you.
LTM...my work benefits included pet insurance this year. When the time is right to have another dog I will probably do it..lol.
HaHa Rachel. Your dog could have won that one!

Hello Kate and Kygal, Just heard that you are now moderators. Congratulations to you both. Couldn't happen to two nicer people and the Rooftop will be a nicer, friendlier place with the benefit of the two of you. I have not been on the Rooftop for a while but have still followed our favourite man and am really pleased that he is doing so well. I hope to contribute a bit more now. So pleased for you both.

Robela, good to see you back! Hope you´ll stay for a while! Agree with you Kate! The last time I was in London, I walked the Westminster bridge before my flight back. So sad!

It is scary when you have been somewhere that has been attacked. It can happen anywhere.
Great to have you back Robela. Thank you for the kind words. It was an honor to be asked. I am happy to help out any way I can at a site we all enjoy. I am sure we all feel the same way. Just don't ask me any tech questions...haha.
Have a wonderful day and stay safe everyone!

Thanks Kate, Kygal and Midoro, for the welcome. I couldn't believe it when I saw the photo of Rufus filming in Ripon Cathedral as I was there a few weeks ago.

Robela, welcome back, hope you can have the time to be a frequent visitor.
Yes, the attak in London was terrible, even more disturbing to learn his wife is among the injured. I admire the attitude of Teresa May and the members of Parliament, returning to work as soon as possible, not giving in to fear.
On a health kick, have made overdue appointments for my yearly physical, eye exam, and dentist visit. Nothing is bothering me, but I had let them slide, mostly because nothing was bothering me. So what the heck, just sat down and found time to get it all done.
