The Mistress appeared a little sleepy this morning and did not move quickly.  She does it slowly, I maintain. She heats the wheat bag while cooking breakfast. Generally, this brings relief the minute she sits down. The morning soon got away from her. It was croquet again today, and she needed to do some jobs, but to me, the body wasn't willing. Eventually, motivation was found, and all was well, with her jobs done, lunch, and then out the door. 

Last night was enjoyable for us, as the policeman ensured that others were allowed through. As there were so many of them, they had to take turns. Sure enough, when all was quiet, about six came. We played on an exercise thing that these humans have stopped using. They have it for sale, as it is far too heavy for the caravan. Crickey, it was so hard to move. We needed seven gnomes on each pedal to make it move.

She has been at it again and did not let me finish this blog yesterday. It's no good complaining around here. She is the boss, and I must just like it or lump it. 

His Lordship appeared in the afternoon after he watched her play croquet. She had a surprise in store: His mallet was in her car. She had bought one from another player who had a spare. Nope, not today, he said. 

There was another open house today, and all hands were on deck to get the house ready. They loved the fact that the sun was shining, and indeed, this would bring people out. His Lordship raised a concern that if he was going to play this game, then he would like to practice first. Thankfully, having a key to the place helps. 

I hear the Mistress was very impressed with his skills. Playing golf and pool helps because they also use strategies. They announced that she won the first game, but he won the second. Something tells me he will be a pro at this sport before you know it. But I am not sure she would be happy about this though. He is still going on about how the weight of his scooter on the back of the caravan would make things too heavy. She wonders if he could borrow or hire a scooter wherever they travel.
