 We are having a great time here without the mistress. We have just about drunk all the grog and start on the fridge tonight. Getting up to the handle to open it could well be a mission. I am not sure the wheelbarrow will do this one. Maybe we will have to move a chair over. A tough job for a mere Gnome, or two. Oh well, that will keep us busy, and will need a drink or two to recover, then more to get the chair back so she will never know.

That Rainbow man suggested we get out into the garage tonight. Crickey who knows what is out there. I don't think I have ever been in the garage. So, watch this space. I shall keep you posted, and we may even find some more grog. 

Let's hope the Neighbours haven't heard us. No doubt they will tell her. Us Gnomes do a lot of hand signals, and our voices are not as loud as humans, so we should be safe. 

A couple of these fellas had very sore heads this morning. Not me though. I pace myself and need to teach the others to do the same.

So, I wonder what the mistress has been doing? She sure won't be telling me anything. I shall wait and observe on her return, whenever that is. It's been a bit chilly here without the heat pump on. We better not use the controls and anyway, they are too high for us, another chair job.

We have been keeping a watch out of her bedroom window to see what goes on around the place. People are stopping to talk again and a few cars roar by. The Postie, or Gnome on Wheels, which is what the Granddaughter calls them only stops at some letter boxes and not all. Goodness only knows why. Another complicated human issue that I need to find out. These other blokes here cannot get their heads around humans at all. It is a tough job for me to explain and I now teach them to read my books, because that is what the mistress taught me.

She is a wise woman at times you know, but don't you dare tell her this, as we don't want this information going to her head. It could give her an injury. 

Thought for the day

Sensitive people should be treasured.

They love deeply and think deeply about life.

They are loyal, honest, and true.

The simple things sometimes mean the most to them.

They don't need to change or harden.

Their purity makes them who they are.
