What Gus said, Armers. My sympathy.
Soo xx
And mine, and on the same basis as Gus.
My sympathy too, Armers
Lighting a Candle, & raising a glass

What Gus said. A gentle death is what we’d all pray for.
Armrest
What a mercy a gentle end is
My condolences
Good nights, Armers and all.

That Bird broke down on a dual carriageway some way from anywhere, with a disc-brake that was glowing red. Rang RAC at 7pm. They said with you by 8:30.
At 9:37 I got a text asking whether I could ring them and find out what was happening.
At 9:40 I dialled their number.
At 10:36 they replied to the phone… and couldn’t work out what was wrong. They had a record of the call, they had a record of sending a patrol out to it, they had the right place in their records. The nice man said he would find out what had happened and ring the Bird on the (presumably dying, after hanging on for fifteen minutes failing to to get through to them after 9pm) cellphone.
I am singularly unimpressed.
Oh no! Pore Bird. Also pore Fish, because you will now be anxious and unsettled and things until Matters Are Resolved.
A murrain on them. Later, once they have sorted Hedgers out, obviously. A delayed sort of murrain.
Grrr.

Deffo delayed murrains, but kindest wishes for That Bird and the attendant Fish.

Buggrit, Fishy
What a nuisance
Slammers whilst we are waiting ?
I have been Very Good & fitted a Noo seal to the bottom of the shower door before rehanging it

Aaaargh
Bluddy spell check phone
Apologies Armers
I am going to take my phone to bits with a hammer some day soon
Or you could bludgeon it with an armrest.
How on earth do you see anything posting onna Bluddy 'phone ?

They had lost the call.
They are inefficient crothounds.
They now say 11:45 to 00:00 for their arrival; that is five hours sitting by the road, chances are.
I am totally unimpressed.
Oh Ferk, Fishy
Not good
Have a Hug & another Slammer

Oh bluddy hell. We’re doubling up on the murrains now, possibly with a pox or two thrown in for good measure.
None required. I may change my name. Maybe also add Footstool.
I shall not be settled until that bird gets home. 5 hours doing nothing except wait is a poor thing indeed.
It is not warm out there, either. I am slightly concerned, let’s say. And even if it can be fixed on the spot, which seems possible but unlikely, I think I shan’t go to bed until I am sure Mini and I won’t be needed to do a spot of Fetching and Carrying.
A Sparrow should be in its nest by now. Even on my side of the pond. Best wishes to That Bird. xx
I am going to rev up my broom to take supplies of anti freeze to a wee birdie and a soothing draught of summat to a fish
Not good at all that service
I worry about the cellarati
Dere chatelaine
My phone is quite big sort of half tablet size
And my magnifying light thing works a treat
I do have some sight left
