I don’t know why we haven’t done that before M Kaz because it really was quite comfortable. What – it wasn’t for you? So if it wasn’t comfortable with you on the recliner with the footrest up and me lying between your legs why did you go to sleep? And we know you were asleep because M Sooz caught both you and I snoring our heads off while we were watching television – or pretending to be watching television in your case. I was surprised to find you on the recliner – I think it was because you had had a long day trudging around the Gold Coast Show and taking photographs and you didn’t want to lie down on the bed because you would have gone to sleep. (Like that wasn’t going to happen on the recliner.) The surprise bit was because I think it’s only the second time you’ve actually sat in it – let alone reclined in it! Hopefully we’ll do it again soon though.
There hasn’t been much to report around here lately – except for the fact that Denny came and fixed the roof. That has been a long time coming – what with getting different quotes, people not turning up to do quotes, and then having to decide which quote to take. Denny was nice though and he seemed to do a thorough job – and so he should have because he and his mate Jason were trudging over the roof for the better part of Monday and Tuesday. Thank goodness it didn’t rain when he had planned to do the job because they took most of the tiles off so they could reclip, redo the ridge and put in a new whirly-bird. M Kaz did breathe a huge sigh of relief when it was done though – especially since it has been raining a bit and more rain is expected. She says the next step is to get the electrician out to make sure none of the wiring has been compromised from where the roof had been leaking. I wonder how long it will take her to get to that. Mind you, she’s had no hesitation in booking me in for my annual vaccination – 8am, 11 September, with Donna my new vet. It takes a bit longer to drive over there than it did to get to my previous vet – and don’t think I won’t be complaining all the way there and all the way back!
It hasn’t been so cold that I’ve been on the Mummies’ bed every night but I have been hanging out there a bit. M Sooz was worried one of them was going to roll on me the other night because I was sleeping right up the middle of the bed between them. I would have liked to see them try it without getting a ‘friendly’ reminder that I was there.
