Those Mummies always go out on Saturday mornings and leave me here all alone. I think they think that it’s okay and that I just go back to bed and go back to sleep. Well, that may be the case but it’s a worry that they would think so. But at least M Kaz always says goodbye to me, ‘See you later Nigey’. I do my bit, I’m always waiting for them when they arrive home – whenever that is.

When they arrived home today M Kaz came Outback with me for a while. I’m not sure what she was doing besides soaking up the sunshine and looking at her phone. And then she was gone – leaving M Sooz reading in bed (it is still cold enough for her to do that – she isn’t a sun fan like M Kaz and me and has to warm up as best she can).

And talk about being warm (not), I’ve been cold cold cold in the evenings. Last night I bothered M Kaz until she turned off the television and came to bed. Then I hopped on our bed and M Kaz covered me up with the dinosaur blanket – even though M Sooz was saying she was worried I wouldn’t get enough air but that’s never been a problem before – and it wasn’t last night either because once M Kaz finally made it into bed and I backed up to her legs, I was set for the night. M Sooz did check I was still there – and breathing – several times throughout the night. M Kaz slept through all that, of course, and she slept through M Sooz having a nightmare as well. And she must have been tired because she didn’t get up and go down to the Broadwater to take photographs of the sunrise and pelicans today – I don’t care about that, of course -what I care about is that if she doesn’t go, I can’t have her warm spot when she leaves.
