Now we have sunshine at last \u2013 it seems there will still be some rain thrown in, but it did feel good to be walking with sun on my fur. I took Mum and Dad for a walk around the airfield. It\u2019s my favourite walk. I\u2019ll admit we had a bit of a battle of wills. I saw the status of the piles of manure in a different light to them. Dad was a bit more flexible, but Mum considered it a hazard for me to avoid. I saw endless possibilities of taste and smell. Sadly, Mum won the battle and I was kept away from it. She can be such a spoilsport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now I\u2019m hoping for lots of outdoor time over the next few days to make the most of it all. I think Mum wants to try to take some plant cuttings for the new house but gardening is Ari\u2019s domain rather than mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the bright side, moving house seems to involve eating everything in the freezer. Now obviously there are some things I\u2019m not volunteering for. I\u2019d much sooner eat the fresh veg than ones which have been frozen for example. However, I am volunteering to help with the ice cream. Mind you, I\u2019m going to have to ask Dad when Mum isn\u2019t around. Mum has tightened up my diet and isn\u2019t letting me have anything that\u2019s vaguely fun. Dad\u2019s more of a soft touch, so I\u2019m buttering him up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Using the freezer contents up is also going to lead to marmalade making. I don\u2019t suppose that will be much fun for me but I\u2019m willing to sit at Mum\u2019s feet on the off chance it\u2019s better than it sounds. When I say \u2018at her feet\u2019 \u2013 to be honest it\u2019s more \u2018on her feet\u2019 but what\u2019s a little distance between friends?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
