Jeepers the mistress is in another summer outfit today. Looking outside doesn't give me the feeling that it is warm out there. It appears she is going out with her friend to Leeston. My guess is I am staying at home. Oh well, what is new here. 

A couple of us went out to the garage to see how this Gnome painting was getting on. Cor blimey, simply nothing since the last time I looked. I wonder when she plans on finishing these poor chaps who told me they would rather be outside and if she didn't get a wriggle on then they would head outside themselves. There is still a fella in the bucket soaking and waiting to be cleaned. He told me he has been soaking for several days now and lost count as to how many days. Crickey, I hope he doesn't drown. I can see me poking a hole in the side of it to let the water out. I shall give her one more day to sort this or I will. 

Now I have heard several conversations around here about going over to New Brighton for a month while the family is on holiday. They have a huge black cat who needs TLC. So, what about us here on the shelf. I wonder if we get to go with her. A month is a very long time. 

It appears His Lordship is going over there too. Well, if this is so then I am too, and Trixie. It appears they are house-sitting like we did on our holiday. Now this was fun and watching this cat could be quite entertaining. I also hear this house is lovely, so this too is a bonus. There is water on both sides of this house. I hope she remembers my dislike of water. I shall remind her if I see this happening. Now earthquakes are very common over that way. The February 2011 quake was centered off New Brighton and the aftershocks are still happening from time to time. Oh, my goodness I wasn't impressed with those quakes at all. I hope she knows what she is getting into here. There is only one way in and out of this street, and if there is a tsunami well, we could be history.
