Bits and Pieces

Another cracking day. The temperatures were, again, in the low 30s and there was not a sign of a cloud in the sky. The Gorse Fox had cancelled football today as he needed to be available to take Cousteau-Cub to the doctor's. Meanwhile, the Silver Vixen went off to Pilates and the plan was that she would collect Ellie on the way back.

By lunchtime when the Silver Vixen got back the Gorse Fox had managed to talk with a Car Valeting company regarding ceramic finishes for the new car, and also the travel insurers regarding upgrades to our cover. A successful morning.

Once the Silver Vixen was back with Ellie we had some lunch and then spent the afternoon in the garden playing in water and with a water spray. In practise it was the only way to stay cool. Late in the afternoon we had the annual summer hog roast hosted by Berkeley Homes for the people on the development. As usual it was well attended. The drinks flowed and the hogs satisfied the hungry hordes. Ellie was very shy to start with but a neighbour brought her great granddaughter, whoo was about the same age as Ellie, and they got on like the proverbial house on fire.
