I have discovered the law relating to pillow cases. This states that in any given wash cycle, one or more pillow cases will disappear inside the duvet cover and won\u2019t be found for several weeks. I noticed this as my Mistress searched high and low for a pillow case, which then today, a number of weeks after the search, neatly dropped out of the hole in the clean duvet cover. It must have been the one place she didn\u2019t look. There\u2019s a lesson in there somewhere, but I don\u2019t think I\u2019ll mention it to her.<\/p>\n
Life\u2019s too busy to write much at the moment. My grandparents are staying, which means I have an almost constant opportunity for having someone pull the other end of my rope, except when we\u2019re all asleep. It\u2019s a funny thin, they seem to spend almost as much time asleep as I do. Mind you, so would my Master if anyone would let him. Granny is very good at playing tug, although I was alarmed when no sooner had she said hello to me than she went outside to make friends with the sheep. It came across as the actions of a traitor, although I don\u2019t suppose she really saw it that way.<\/p>\n
I wonder if sheep think about the fact that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. It would be true for the ones in the field by us. They have nibbled their grass almost to extinction, while ours is still very green. To be fair ours isn\u2019t all grass. It\u2019s amazing how green moss and weeds can look. Maybe that\u2019s the whole point of the saying, maybe when the grass is greener, it\u2019s because it isn\u2019t really grass at all but a poor substitute. It would be very sad if they went to the trouble of escaping from their field only to come round and make that discovery for themselves.<\/p>\n
