It had been very wet again overnight and rain continued, on and off, throughout the day. Though Cousteau-cub and the Coventry Hobbit both had work, the Silver Vixen and Gorse Fox could stay in. The morning was the usual whirl of domestic duties.

Junk mail arrived through the letterbox. As a rule, it finds its way directly to the recycle bin. One item caught the eye; it was an offer for boiler maintenance and servicing. It was also £5 per month cheaper than British Gas. This triggered a phone call and after 35 minutes of hanging on, the Gorse Fox finally spoke with an agent. Five minutes later his monthly payment had been reduced to match the offer. It was either that or the Gorse Fox would have cancelled and switched.

This afternoon he discovered a feature of his Mac of which he had not previously been aware. There is a built-in utility called Image Capture. This has a neat facility that allows you to scan a page of photos and it will isolate each separate image and scan them individually. As he found some previously unscanned photo albums, this is a real boon.

Cousteau-cub has an appointment with the Physio this afternoon and is then returning to Chichester to view another property. It's not clear if the Coventry Hobbit will be able to join her, but hopefully, they can view it together.
