Though I was up early, it was a lazy day. It started with coffee and the newsand then breakfast while chatting to cousins on my weekly Zoom call. There was nothing of note during the call, with the possible exception of Rolly announcing he had bought a pop-up sauna. I would have thought that the temperature in Australia was sufficient that a sauna was completely superfluous.
After the call, we prepared all of the gear that had to accompany Jasper on his Spa breaks. Timed feeder, automatic water dispenser, vets' records, feeding regime, and so forth. Once we were ready, Di snuck up on him, and we dropped him into the carrier, but not before he wee'd over the carpet, Di's trainers and my hands. Joy of joys! We loaded the car and drove to the Cat Whisperer's. We avoided the usual route because of the flooding, but the longer route we took seemed quicker than our usual route. Mark welcomed Jasper, and he was soon settled in. We had the usual chat and walked away clutching some chocolates he had given me for my birthday (Mark, that is, not Jasper).
Once home, we had a bite of lunch, and I headed off for a short walk. When I arrived back, we settled in the Orangery for some Kindle time. Though it was very cold outside, the sun had really warmed up the Orangery, and it was gloriously comfortable.
