Thyme to let the cat out of the growbag

Purr-fect place to sleep: Amy proves she has cattitude, even among the herbs
MARY KELLY
Meet Amy, the cool cat from Carlow [Ceatharlach] in Ireland. She's a growing girl and needs all the rest she can get. In fact, you might say she enjoys a catnap when the fur isn't flying.
However, from her prone position in the plastic tray, you could be forgiven for thinking that chilled-out Amy is going to seed in the back garden of our good pal Mary.
Amy doesn't do wind, apparently. Indeed, she doesn't do very much at all. But to be fair [should that be fur?] to our feline friend, it was blowing a fair old Irish breeze on the day this photo was taken.
So she opted for the sheltered, vacant bottom shelf of a seed-tray greenhouse used to grow herbs, rather than have her lovely thick coat ruffled by the nasty old wind. If you're a cat, I suppose it's a great way of passing the thyme. In fact, Mary might now want to rename the sage Amy after she was caught dozing among the herbs. What about Rosemary? There's a  suggestion that will probably put the cat among the pigeons.
PS: A big thank-you to Mary for flying over and helping us out for a few days while my wife recovers. Gave me a welcome break from the cooker! True friend. 
Sister-in-law also dropped in from Sydney, via Belgium, and kept little sister amused, as well as cleaning out the goats. Cheers, Caroline.
