HELPING HANDS PET SERVICES ©

Hello Everyone,

I hope you all had fun at halloween and bonfire night, we didnt get anyone knocking for trick or treat this year, i think its due to where we live, its a bit dark and spooky at night without it being halloween, and as its quite a high point ( feels like a mountain ) its always very windy and gusty...so i couldnt waste these lovely offerings we had prepaired could I, so chock fest it was for me for a few days. I needed the comfort of chocolate to get me through X factor , which has been rubbish this year. We are normally huge fans, and it was great fun watching the auditions but the live shows have been very disappointing, so for the first time ever, we have switched off ! thank goodness for Big Brother and Downton Abbey is all i can say.

I love Autumn. My birthday month is October so im not sure if that has anything to do with it, but i just find these months to be exciting with the feeling of hope and expectations, it always feels magical and mysterious. I love to see all the colours of the leaves change then fall...I love to walk around the farmers market and buy the seasonal products...I love the nights to start drawing in early....I love to have cosy nights with the fire and candles lit....its a very relaxing time of year after having a very, very, busy spring and summer season....the slower pace of life and daily routine is a welcome change....Then before we know it  Winter has arrived ! and things start to really speed up again....Christmas is just around the corner...I will have to get busy posting the clients Christmas Cards and remember to let santa paws know how many pets will be holidaying at home on Christmas day so he can leave them a gift under their tree. Throughout  December the office phone rings off the hook, the mobile bleeps and flashes with text and email, and the diaries fill up with bookings from established clients and consultations for new clients who usually own Cats, Rabitts, Hampsters, Gerbils and sometimes a Gecko or two...dont you just love this time of year? I do !

Keep Warm

Best wishes from
