Day Five Hundred and Seventy Three

We went to our farm early this morning.

Because it was a very very beautiful morning and the sky was just all blue everywhere.

But it was not so warm.

Because it was before the sun got all warm.

So I practiced my fastest running. 

And we had a very good time.

When we got home everyone was fast asleep so Zita and I had a relax for a little while.

And then the bedroom door opened and Craig was all awake and dressed.

But he did not wait for me to be his own very best helper. He just did it by him self. Oh dear.

Maybe I lost my very best job. Oh my goodness gracious me. 

Then Niamh and Mister Tyler were awake too. 

Because they are going on a very long ride on their very fast bicycles. 

With some other people who have fast bicycles too. 

So they were wearing their bicycle clothes. My goodness me.

I think they will be just all frozen up like big ice cubes. 

So I told Mister Clifford to stay awake in case Zita and I have to save them.

But Mister Clifford is so big we can put their bicycles inside too. Good for Mister Clifford. 

When they were gone Zita made toasty brand new bagels with lots of butter.

So when Craig had his next another coffee I was right there to help him with those tasty bagels. 

So I am still his very best helper. He told me so. That is good. 

After lunch we put a lot of Craig’s extra books in a big bag for a lady. 

She is going to get money for them, and give it to Emmet and Niamh’s long time ago school. That is a good 

A man came to my house today. He said he was looking for The Duke of Oban. 

But Zita told him that she thought he was exploring something somewhere in the Amazon. 

And she had not heard from him in lots of times.

But that is not true. My goodness me. 

But Zita said it was not really a lie, because maybe Colonel Dugal is there. Or maybe not.

But she called Festis in far away Italy. 

He said that he was just getting ready to go out for dinner with the Contessa at Pinchiorri. 

But he said that we should not tell anyone where they were, or when they might have been. 

Because then they could not go out for delicious dinners all the time.  

Because of all those noisy photographers. 

And that restaurant had the very best desserts ever.

But he did rather like the idea of an expedition to find beautiful buried things in the Amazon. 

Maybe Lee could go with them. 

So he would talk to Furrgus and Dugal when he next sees them.

So Zita right away asked him where Furrus and Dugal were for goodness sake. 

He said somewhere with a beach as he understood.

Zita did not believe him. Oh dear me. But he said he had to go as the car was waiting for them. 

And just like that he was gone again. My goodness.

So Zita went outside to make the garden all neat and tidy. And not even think a bit about those Badgers. 

I minded her with Craig from inside our house. 

And I had my afternoon relax with Craig in the living room. 

Zita did not get so very much tidying done because everybody wanted to talk to her. Oh well.

It is nice to have people to talk to.

But when she came in she had to have a squeaky clean shower.

Because Richard and Kathy are coming to our house for dinner.

And they are going to bring it. Ha. 

Maybe we will have cheese. Maybe.
