I have never seen anyone so happy to see rain as my Mistress was yesterday. I suppose people in countries suffering droughts must be even more pleased, but I don\u2019t actually get to see them. Anyway, she was so pleased that she wouldn\u2019t have to water the lawn at least for one day. It also means that the front lawn has received a proper soaking which I don\u2019t think it was getting with the watering can.<\/p>\n

It was very funny seeing my Mistress with her eye up to the fence trying to see what it was I had got so interested in. You see, the house at the bottom of our garden seems to have a hen. I hope that my tail wagging doesn\u2019t put her off egg laying. I haven\u2019t been barking or being annoying. I\u2019m just quite interested to make her acquaintance. It reminded me of the \u2018bird flu\u2019 or \u2018vogelgrip\u2019 as I seem to remember it was Called in Belgium and the survey we had to complete. I wonder what happened to all that. It seems to have been all rather overtaken by swine flu and then that disappeared off the radar too. I\u2019m not saying I\u2019m sorry it has gone. It\u2019s nice to feel that the local bird population isn\u2019t going to be ostracized again. It can\u2019t be very much fun having everyone pointing the finger and blaming you for spreading disease.<\/p>\n

We have now completed some of the list of jobs we had for the little man, but I\u2019m told there are plenty more planned for the weekend. The most alarming turn of events is that my Mistress has progressed from using hand tools to being confident with a power drill. She may be confident, I just think she looks dangerous.<\/p>\n
