We have Molly, but John can also be a bit of a nightmare!

Wish him well and a full recovery ... he'll surely be feddup with missing Cheltenham, especially the scintillating win of Sprinter Sacre in the Queen Mother chase this afternoon. Wasn't that something to behold?!!!

Um. Yes. Well, I hope he meant the bird.

For his sake. Bet you when he got home she bashed his fuszzy ginger head up and down against the floor until he cried and promised never to say such things again.
