 His Lordship left this morning, as it was Golf Day. He had instructions from the Mistress to take the bin down to the road before he left. The fellas at the front door were laughing and falling all over the front step, because when he turned his 4WD around he put the handle of the bin onto the tow bar and drove off. He was trying to save his legs the walk down. You see there are 8 houses down this driveway and his sore knees have a tough time walking. He is to have surgery before Christmas and then more surgery after Christmas for the other knee. 

So, these 2 make a good pair because her Achilles seems to be a real problem for this human. The Physio told her yesterday to stay off it and rest. I can report she is not good at all at this resting business. She is always doing something because Trixie and I don't miss a thing from our prime position on the bench.

We sneaked a peek in the lounge today and the shoes were off and her feet up on the couch. She had a big, long talk on the telephone to some bloke about this book business. She is pretty excited about this, but he has to talk to the daughter first. 

She reckons he was quite assertive, pushy, and driven and I heard her say hang on a minute. Woah Neddy. You need to talk to my daughter first. He probably wondered what he struck I reckon. She can be assertive too. We often tune into her conversations, and they teach His Lordship a thing or two by the look on his face.

What a night, the Mistress is exhausted after all these phone conversations and starts to have doubts. She says there is a saying. "If it is too good to be true then it is". Oh dear, will this ever happen?

So, I say watch this space.
