Diagnosis all round to that!
Or even 'fishbowls all round ', which is what I thought I said. And, to be fair, they do tend to be…
Congratulations to the fine Sudden Major. And sympathies to a proud parental Fish for the worry of it all.

Email from Sudden Daughter to say that she is safely in Uganda, enclosing a picture of the view from her hotel room with Lake Victoria in the background. Well, that’s one worry gone: she has flown safely to nearly where she is going. I think she now has some training work to get through before she starts on duty.

Hope that you are a bit reassured dear Fishy

Yes, though of course this is the easy bit. Still, unlike in Afghanistan or Somalia, she won’t be specifically a target. Except insofar as the UN always are.

That Poodle, at home in the hive. She’s gone, now, and we’ll miss her.

However, Sudden Daughter’s fabulous promotion but eversolong deployment abroad is bittersweet, Fishers. You must be, rightly, proud.

Soo, I don’t wish to spread alarm and despondency throughout the Beely clan, but does it not look to you as though yon Poodle is unravellling? Kind of from the back leg up…

Lovely picture and lovely Poodle. So long as her bottom doesn’t come adrift like.

Yon Poodle’s yarn is prone to unravelling, Gus. Thankfully, she doesn’t cast off all about her.
Her bum is sound. Azzin, it sometimes does.

Feel very criminal, crouched here with a contraband cat. Have turfed him out repeatedly to little effect. His people are understandably miffed. I don’t want the bugger. But he is sitting on me anyway.

Ah. That’s another thing. The Clown is a flatulent beast.

Well there’s your mistake; he knows that, so you’re stuck with him.
