The newest family member
For years we were a family with loads of pets. I think the record period was when we had five dogs, three cats and numerous goldfish.

For me it’s when the espresso machine (all 35Kg of it) is back in place in the kitchen, the water supply hooked up, the Mazzer grinder is in place, and the whole kit is warming up, ready for the first ‘spresso back home.
That was today for me. Returning ‘home’ after eight weeks leave…
