Woe

As I had promised previous to try and by jollier I haven’t posted for a few days. I have yet another cold, yesterday saw the whole of England and (I gather) Wales under a monsoon, I am not sleeping well and yesterday I went to listen about setting up my first pension, a slightly frightening prospect even for someone as miserablist as myself… Oh deary me, woe, woe, woe. On the bright side, Chicken has tomorrow off work so we have a long weekend to enjoy, I am off to Crealy Adventure Park with the kids on Saturday (Mr C as yet undecided on his coming or otherwise), we have a BBQ at Si’s tomorrow and, yes, we have a long weekend! Hooray. I had tried to book us a last minute weekend away, to Lyme Regis, actually, but people kept quoting me much higher prices than were on their websites and additionally charging large fees for a certain pooch. Oh well, we have Brittany to look forward to in a week or two! The stream/river in the village has swelled up hugely, luckily the Environment Agency came last week to unblock it a bit and as such it has remained within the banks. It is, however, causing Ferris much consternation as he currently lives under the misapprehension that water is an alive thing. He keep standing on the bank trying to summon up the courage to bite the water below… |
It would be the day I chose to drive back from Liverpool! Set out in sunshine, but around Birmingham the heavens opened. Interesting that many people chose to carry on at the usual 80+, despite not being able to see the road or the car in front.
Mad? Barking? Makes the behaviour of your small dog seem eminently reasonable to me. maybe he spotted a fish/water sprite?
