Bitty

It's been a bitty day. The Gorse Fox was up before seven to let Jasper out and to grab his first cup of coffee. He had to get across to LA in order to collect Ellie. Urban-Cub had some domestic issues to sort out and we would look after Ellie for a couple of hours. It was a slow drive across in the morning traffic, but the whole day brightened up when the Gorse Fox pulled up outside and saw Ellie jumping up and down and clapping his arrival. We soon had here tucked into the car seat and headed back so Urban-Cub could get on with things.

Cousteau-Cub and the Silver Vixen were the subject of great excitement as Ellie and the Gorse Fox approached the house. "Nana's house" she kept saying and the Gorse Fox would agree, as she went through the inhabitants of said domicile, including the cat,... but somehow "Bompa" never made it onto the list.

Cousteau-Cub wanted to do some shopping in Bognor Regis. She needs some shoes suitable for a working environment. It's not easy finding comfortable footwear when you have spent 19 years in bare feet or flip-flops. The Gorse Fox dropped her in town then stopped off to cast his vote in the district elections on the way back.

By late morning Urban-Cub had everything sorted and came to collect Ellie. We settled down for some lunch then the Gorse Fox walked in to the village to get his haircut. Now home, the Silver Vixen and Cousteau-Cub have gone back out to check-in at the local surgery and to drop Cousteau-Cub over at Urban-Cub's over night so she can look after Ellie briefly in the morning.
