Like
it when friends drop in unexpectedly for tea, a bacon sandwich and a laugh.
Everything
booked for half term Scottish trip.
Easter holiday cottage booked.
Oyster card
topped up for Mummy's Away Days in London.
Fester's hotel booked for The Verral
in March.
Email re PTA sent out.
Having
a rare burst of efficiency!
The Verral coincides with Thunderthighs' CentreParcs' trip with school, so for one night it will just be me and Ferretfingers!
"Add
your phone number to help secure your account and more"?
That 'more' presumably being even more unwanted cold calls because 'you gave your
number on a form online.'
Come
off it facebook you just want my number to sell it - it's how you make the money
to provide the service - please don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining.

It
was good to get back to Ouseburn yesterday but it was so sad and quiet with all
the fowls gone.
No clucking or quacking
or crowing.
Beavis the Green Amazon parrot has been moved, cage and all, into quarantine in an office with a window
looking out into the small animal room and shop. Apparently he was not pleased and screamed
blue murder. I mananged to catch sight of him through the glass but there was
no conversation.
Addendum
The Verral is an annual meeting of water beetlers
which Fester attended regularly before Covid.
Having had all last year’s plans scuppered by
Ferretfingers’ ankle infection, this year I’ve been reluctant to start
planning; however the date and location of the first Coven has been set, which
is a start.
Beavis the parrot was saved from the bird-flu cull
because he lives in a large cage in the small animal room and shop, but only if the
vet took a blood sample to test that he wasn’t infected. Beavis also drew blood from the vet.
