Hi Vanessa, oh, that's such lovely news he finally arrived safe and sound such a relief so happy. For a moment there I thought I would have to round up the super animal squad and rescue my prince just like he rescued me, his princess in the miss piggy story hahahahaha. Oh glad you all finally got to enjoy that yummy dinner much needed for poor starving Malcolm I'm sure. I nearly fainted with the shock of no one having any pudding though haha. I would have had everyone's share if I was there for sure haha. I bet Malcolm slept well after such a hectic time. Oh Vanessa, your place sounds lovely. Well now you can concentrate on having a lovely time. I hope all goes well from now on. I look forward to your next update.
