The mistress had a sleep-in today, but well deserved I must say. The people here left in the middle of the night to catch their plane. 

But she's not functioning properly and says just tired and going to have a quiet day at home. But did need to go to the supermarket. I stayed in the car to observe the talent around here and to see if any of my cousins were floating around because I could save them. 

I did request she look out for another Robot. But on returning said no, none. The aisles were narrow and lots of people were around, doing their shopping, and no room for a Robot in there. She reports it's just a country supermarket here and very small, and that includes the car park. 

Now, this morning the mistress was a bit stressed as she couldn't get the laptop onto the internet, so I stayed out of the way. The poor daughter had to come up with some ideas, and after all, we have stayed at so many places and the poor computer probably had had enough I would say. Anyway, after a piece of chocolate to clear her brain cells BINGO she's sorted. 

Amazing what chocolate will do. But where was mine? Doh...

Now there is supposed to be a cat living here, called Millie. But I haven't seen her yet. She's probably got the pip because her family is away. She's 16 years old and doesn't keep well. The mistress went out to her hiding place and was fast asleep, so I suppose she will come in when hungry. 

A funny thing happened this afternoon, and before she ate the chocolate, she rang a very dear friend. When she answered she was stunned, because she was looking at a map to see where we were, and the mistress phoned.... spooky, especially because of the terrible floods. So, the two of them are in sync and this often happens to this friend and others. The mistress is used to this happening with people, but gee she has weird brain cells, I think. I will look this one up too tonight.

There have been so many helicopters flying around here today. It's almost constant. Plus, I think the sky is falling in because there is so much thunder and very little rain. The mistress says the atmosphere is strange, and very still at times and hopes there are no more earthquakes because the new Prime Minister called Chris, wasn't impressed with the news that there was one near Wellington. The bunker people are way too busy dealing with the cyclone problems, and I think his brain hurt hearing this news. Maybe someone should offer him some chocolate too. 😂😂😂

Tis a great life being a traveling Gnome. I am going to have so much to tell me mates at home. This will take me all year, I think. 

What dah ya reckon. It would make a good book. These adventures of ours is really so much fun. You should see the mistress right now with this thunder and I'm shaking in my boots as it's so loud.
