  The Mistress is complaining that this holiday business here in South Shore is making her very lazy. Hang on here, she is supposed to rest her leg. The Mistress does rest it because I keep watch.

His Lordship is complaining that he too isn't getting enough exercise, but we know his surgery isn't far away and he has discomfort when on his feet too long. He disappeared into the garage for a while, then came out with some weird gear and flexed his muscles. How strange. He told the Mistress that they were 3 kg each. Jeepers, that is heavier than me!!

His Lordship

They went out again, so Trixie and I went out to inspect the garden and made sure they were watering it.  Just as well for them, it's all doing very well. There are even more flowers on the strawberry plants. There is broccoli ready for picking, and I hear it's for tomorrow night's dinner with pork chops. 

The lettuce and spinach have gone berserk, and these humans can't keep up with them. His Lordship announced he was going to sweep outside sometime soon. The Mistress is extremely pleased about this. We did notice this mess, so we are very pleased as it will become much tidier. 

His Lordship showed a keen interest in what the Mistress was cooking for dinner tonight. Asparagus is now in season, so she made it into a Ham Quiche with a savory pastry base. He got the job of cracking the eggs and whisking them up ready for her. I reckon she will make him a chef soon. He often shows an interest in what she is doing. Maybe this will explain why he is putting on weight!! 

The phone rang this afternoon, and the lady said the Mistress can't see the specialist until next year. Oh, she wasn't impressed with this. So now the Doctor has to work harder to find someone. 

Now there was a heated argument here tonight. The Mistress said it was raining. He said no its not. Guess who won when she made him go to the window and turn the TV down. She announced MEN!!
