The upshot of yesterday\u2019s meter incident is that it is possible we may have to report our old electricity meter as stolen. You can see this being a perfect set-up for one of those unbelievable crime report emails that goes round. It\u2019s not exactly common place to have to report your electricity meter has gone walkabout. The worst of it is you just know that the police will laugh at you and be left with an unsolved crime on their books and all because the electricity company doesn\u2019t keep very good records of the work they have done.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m sitting in kennels as I write this. Shadow and I are in isolation and whilst for most of the time it doesn\u2019t make much difference, there is a certain leper quality to it and I feel as though I should be given a bell and go round calling \u2018unclean\u2019. It makes you think of humans that go out and about when they have a cough or cold and give it to everyone around them. Perhaps humans should be as willing to put themselves in isolation as they are their pets. At least we\u2019ve got each other for company and we\u2019ve got one or two toys to play with. We haven\u2019t even got our own beds. We\u2019ve had to have ones that the kennels have provided so that they aren\u2019t infected. Meanwhile my Master and Mistress are off in London probably looking at other dogs. They will certainly be seeing Shadow\u2019s three brothers. They have promised to take some photos to bring back and show to us, so that we don\u2019t feel quite so left out. I\u2019m also hoping for some very special belated birthday presents.<\/p>\n
