Good morning brave Topsy. I could not feed the cats yesterday, as the ogress came slithering up the stairs at around the time that I went down there to feed them the week before… I could not believe it when I heard her. I only had enough time to make some more tea, and get back up here out of her way before she was off back downstairs again. It was the same when I was going to go down to cut up some salad for my egg rolls, a couple of minutes before I went down, up she came, and when I came back up, down she went. While I was downstairs, I saw Jenny in the tree where the little squirrel gets, so I shooed her away, and then I saw the little squirrel with two of her babies… I had to scare them away in case Jenny caught them. Not long before I went down for my rolls last evening, up the stairs the ogress came clomping, and I do not know if she went slithering down after I had got up here, I had to turn the telly on because of snorting and giggling over the back there. If that was not enough, fireworks were being let off, and then the snorting and giggling got worse, it got so bad that I had to put those waxy earoley thingies in my ears. At first I thought that it was the swamp things, but it was not them, it was some bucktoothed idiots from way, way over the back there. I had a good nights sleep, and overslept by forty-five minutes this morning, but it was still to dark for me to see if there were any cats out there in the garden when I got down to the kitchen. I had a look when I went back down to make some tea, but there was no cats out there. I was going to go down to the kitchen early today to feed the cats, but the swamp things are out there in the smelly old swamping swamp, so I cannot even do that now. I do not want a large stone, or a big lump of mud coming sailing over the big old fence when I go out there, and hitting me on my heed… I do not know why they just cannot leave us alone, over seventeen years of persistent harassment, and there is nothing we can do about it. I have to leave here early tomorrow to go into town little girl, so I will not be able to come on here to Charlie and you, but I will be back the day after. 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
