Holidays, weddings and babies!


I was just having my afternoon cat nap when I overheard one of the receptionists discussing some interesting news.  You’ll never guess where two of the restaurant team are going in October….Brazil of all places, how exciting!  I am so jealous of Leonie and Tabby who have just booked their holiday.  How lucky are those girls lapping up the sunshine and experiencing a different culture in October while the rest of us work hard looking after all our guests. You may well think that just being a cat I sprawl out on the window ledge keeping myself clean or having the odd snooze but I do take a keen interest in the staff and guests at the hotel.

Mind you, I did have a chuckle to myself when I discovered that they would have several injections before they go. Reminds me of the sorry occasion I was dragged to the vets for my check up by Sue the housekeeper and before I knew it ouch! The man at the vets had stuck a huge needle into me  - so I really don’t know how Leonie and Tabby will cope, especially without having any fur to protect them, but I am sure it will all be worth while.

Did you know that Leonie and Tabby both have a sister who works at the hotel.  Leonie’s sister is Sam who is the bars supervisor and she is getting married at the hotel in September to Chris our Sous Chef, I think I might have to buy a new hat for that special occasion.  Tabby’s sister is Hannah and together they both work in the restaurant.  They never used to get on with each other until they worked here at the hotel, funny how different situations and circumstances can bring people together. (Mind you, no situation or circumstances will ever bring the vet and I happily together, let me make that clear right now!)

Some other great news about Michelle who works in reception, she is expecting her first baby in February next year.  I could never understand why you humans only have one baby at a time.  As for us cats we just have a litter and get it all over and done with, but Michelle is so excited!

So it’s all holidays, weddings and babies! Need to dash my non furry friends and I will catch up with you soon.

Something fishy going on?


What a busy month it has been - so many people coming and going but what I really want to tell you is some interesting news that I heard whilst having a cat nap on the window ledge at reception.  My ears picked up with all this exciting news and it must have been the fact that I heard the word fish - yummy!

Rumour has it that Rick Stein might be opening a new fish restaurant in Falmouth!  In fact the town is buzzing with anticipation as the new restaurant is expected to be at Event Square, that’s right beside the National Maritime Museum.   As you might know Mr Stein has a restaurant in Padstow, near our sister hotel The Metropole.  Exciting news I’m sure you’ll agree.

Best wishes,
