Restart.


The Turkish stone tiles arrive. Angus wonders why French delivery drivers never phone ahead to say they're on their way. A call is made to the builder who promises to show up on Friday morning to restart work. We shall see.

The flags are still out on the war memorial. They are starting to look a little  wind blown and 'squiffy'. Armistice Day was eight days ago. Perhaps i's time to have a gentle word with the new mayor ?


Sophie recognizes the sound of the post lady's little yellow van. The post lady's little yellow van must always be greeted with a torrent of barking. It's one of the inviolable laws of the universe. All other vehicles must be ignored.


After all that excitement it's hardly surprising that the family diva repairs to the wooden grooming table in the garden.


There she can settle down and watch the world go by. The fact that there is no world to go by during lockdown doesn't matter one iota. In fact it helps her catch up on her post walk beauty sleep.


 
If you see anything better this morning let me know :https://twitter.com/freak1ngawesome/status/1328971207631224833

I also want a baby goat. I saw this one earlier in the week: https://twitter.com/SpotTheLoon2010/status/1328195563448197122 As a preliminary gating issue, I only read political Twitter feeds that also feature animals (corgis are weirdly popular in that genre). I'm amazed that the Turkish tiles arrived so quickly and hope the project will (finally) proceed smoothly.

Aaah - cute! The only thing better is hugging a puppy!
We keep our fingers crossed that the builder remembers his promise and doesn't suddenly find something else that's even more urgent! We all await photos of the finished project.

No drier place to lay AND in the sun to boot. Lucky girl.

Still smiling after watching that video! :)

Et moi, smiling after listening to the music selection—although baby goats are cute; they resemble stuffed toys when they are young.
