Sophie was greatly taken with the new companion and spent last night happily chewing it.
This morning Bob liberated his sisters prize possession and disappeared into the garden with the day glo yellow companion clenched between his jaws. It has not been seen since. Big brother has hidden it away for a special occasion. This is a strategy that works if you remember where you put it. It's less of a good idea if you forget. Sophie is making her displeasure evident. Bob is feigning deafness.
The little book store has a small ( make that very small ) collection of CD's. They have one by Hans Rott - a composer I've never heard of. Madame Bay has taken to hanging old CD's from the branches of the pear trees in her orchard. A kind of flower power type thing. I haven't asked her why she's doing this in case it's something to do with warding off the aliens who ( she believes ) land there at night.
'The Font'' has dealt with the problems at the 'wee house' and is on the 5:55 am flight home. Soon the PONs will be loaded into the back of the car for a trip to the airport. Bob will wave his large shaggy paws under the arrival terminals motion sensors and be amazed at what happens. Sophie will sit and stare at the airport cafeteria.

Still waiting for that airport door whooshing video...
I think the idea of cds in trees is to scare birds away.
I love the idea of Bob stealing Sophies toy and hiding it - brothers are always a bit of a pain. He does look rather pleased with himself.
One of these days we're going to find the PONs as we go through Toulouse. Airport. As well as singing "Depart" when we get in the lift (the new lifts don't do it any more, sadly), both my OH and I always go "whooosh" when te doors open. It's your fault, you know. WE're over 60!!
Sophie needs to hunt for her toy after dark when it should be easy to see. Unless Bob really buried it.
The CDs are almost certainly to keep the pears for Mme. Bay and not for the birds.

Dayglo toys and CD trees... only here could I read such a combo! The conditions of rural Canada are not so different to similar places the world over. YAM xx
Maybe Madame Bay is using the cd’s to scare birds away!? I’d love to meet her.
I, too, admit to looking for the PONs when I went through Toulouse airport a while back, and making a little "whoosh" sound to myself. We really need that video.
Maybe it's Madame Bay's aliens who are making the swaying Jesus tilt.
