Fit to travel \u2013 check. App downloaded to phone \u2013 check. Mask \u2013 check. Oh how things have changed since I last travelled anywhere. Mum was running through with Dad to make sure he has done everything so he can come home tomorrow. It really isn\u2019t for the faint hearted. He\u2019s got his negative covid test. That has to be in English, French or Spanish and he is travelling from the German speaking part of Switzerland. He had to make sure he would get the right paperwork. His package of tests is arranged for when he gets home and his paperwork has been completed. His quarantine quarters are nearly ready. That last bit is the only bit I can help with. I wasn\u2019t trusted to take up any of the food that he has for snacks, but I tagged along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A couple of days of sunshine really does make feel as though spring has sprung. It\u2019s lovely spending more time outside and I\u2019ve always been a bit of a sun worshipper. I like sun and I like snow, it\u2019s the grey stuff we get that I\u2019m not keep on. It\u2019s funny, Mum is much the same. I like going out in the rain more than she does, but I\u2019d still prefer it never to be grey and miserable. If the weather could stay good it would mean Dad could spend some of his quarantine outside in the garden which would be nicer for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As I told you yesterday, now I\u2019ve demonstrated the K9 Connectables Kibble Connector Shadow will get to use it for all her meals. It\u2019s a hit. Mum is happy as she doesn\u2019t have to get down on her hands and knees to retrieve it from under the settee several times per meal. Shadow\u2019s happy as she can roll it around the floor as much as she likes and get all her food. Mum isn\u2019t making it more difficult by blocking off any holes yet, but she might.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
