Eileen - Hobbitses Homecoming Day - wonderful! So glad that all has gone so well for the little ones and Sarah and now you'll have them safe and warm at home with you. God bless all.
Just come in from tending the huge bonfire, it's been a smashing day for it here, we had at least 3 hours of sunshine - I was lathered in sweat by the time I'd done with both the heat of the fire and unexpected sunshine. Place looks a lot tidier now but all my togs had to be put directly into a washing machine, due to a heavy coating of mud and soot! lol ! The dogs love it, the lurchers in particular try and "help" me by grabbing hold of the timber and pulling for all they're worth. Sadly not always in the same direction as me - but you can't have everything! Scout in the meantime dances round and dives under everything when it starts moving - her excuse being (I suppose) is that she is looking for the dreaded Ratties (her mortal enemies).
The only way of avoiding this performance of hers is if I tie her up to something, but this results in endless high pitched baying and wailing as she thinks she's missing out on rat-murdering!
Sometimes even the simplest tasks can become quite noisy and complicated up here! lol !
Glad Amber's visit to the vets went alright for her - Moyra, did you need anaesthetic for the removal of the cash (I would have).
Back later - I've just been told to get some clothes on!!!! No need to reach for the Sal Volatile, I have a dressing gown on following a good hot bath. It would appear though that we are due some visitors in the not too distant future and the Mem feels my lack of formal attire is inappropriate. Bye fer now.
