Ah, read The Silver Chair for advice about that – in the cookery book at the giant’s castle.

Sorry, all you get is a Marsh-Wiggle. Good at fishing, not so good at burrowing.

Would gold from the depths of my bog hole work?
Living at the top of a hill means rivers are rare on our land
Bogs we do with great ease and carbon storing too
A curry-ish bean hotpot is now in the oven
It looks quite nice

We have a small round of beef roasting, which I intend to serve with Yorkshire pudding, sprouts fried in garlic butter, and gravy made with the juice from the roast.

The dressing is (theoretically) knee-length, so no stocking on that leg. No dressing either, after the first couple of days…
(Actually it’s survived a bit better this week - it’s still covering about half the shin.)

No news today, & I don’t want to 'phone again so soon.
We usually speak every week, & I had sent her a parcel of’ goodies’ for her to make over, or sell to fund her good works. I hadn’t heard that it had arrived, & realised that I hadn’t heard from her for 2 weeks.
She was chirpy enuff, but has a long-term problem which affects her feet, & walking anyway, & Covid has added to this, & her spatial awareness is all over the place ATM, so she keeps falling over. Not great when you live in a first floor flat.
Patrick has scores of admirers, & will be very well looked after, but he won’t be happy without her, or the crumpets from the cafe…
