Good morning brave Topsy. The ogress is refusing to go trundling off to work because she has arthritis in one of her back legs, my poor grandfather had that when he way young, and my poor Mum got it when she was young as well… but they got on with it, and had to work, the ogress thinks that she is the only one in pain. I thought that I would not have to get much shopping yesterday, but seeing as the ogress refuses to go into town in case someone from work sees her, I had to get a load of stuff. I had so much to get that I forgot to buy any cat food, and when I went to feed Percy, Jenny, and George this morning, there were just six packets left. I have had to order some, and the daft people who deliver are taking everything to the wrong addresses all of a sudden… I do not know what can be going on, because if someone cannot read an address properly, they should not be allowed to drive. I am not allowed to drive because of my dopey daft heed, and people who cannot read properly should not be allowed to drive either. The food should be here tomorrow, but knowing them, it will arrive the day after, or probably not at all. I would go into town again, but it has been raining since I got up early very early this morning… it was so early, it was still pitch black when I got up. I was awake early yesterday and the day before, and I was hoping for a lay in this morning, but no, I turned over in bed, was going to go back to sleep, but Molly woke me with a large meow. She is now sleeping on her upside down nest. That rain had eased off for a bit, and it started getting lighter, but it is now raining again, and has got dark again. I was going to go out there into the garden to stand in the nice cool rain, but those idiotic swamp things will come out, one of them did early this morning as I was taking tins out to the bins, so I had to come back inside quickly in case a brick or some mud came over the big old fence. We do love you Topsy, we love you so much little girl, and we do miss you, we miss you so much you beautiful brave little girl. XXXXX
