Early start

Well that was out of the ordinary. Usually Ellie sleeps through, but last night she was awake and calling before 3 o'clock. Though the Silver Vixen got up, changed her, and changed the bed, she wouldn't settle. Indeed it was a couple of hours before she went back off properly and we double-teamed until she she dropped off finally (though the Silver Vixen did the lion's share). Fortunately it was about eight thirty before she stirred again.

The morning was really focussed on Ellie so there's not too much to report. We did, however, wander round to feed the ducks on the lake. She's still quite mesmerised by the ducks as the swim across from the island and gobble up the seed.

Ellie had a nap after lunch and had only just got up when Urban-Cub arrived to collect her. She had clearly had a day of it with software problems on the scanning equipment and a plane stuck on the runway at Gatwick.

The Silver Vixen and the Gorse Fox are now back off duty. A glass of spiced rum (and coke) seemed like a suitable "end of shift" treat before the Gorse Fox starts on tonight's supper.

The Gorse Fox must try and get some time to catch up on Admin... but can't be bothered this evening.
