Good morning beautiful Topsy. I still feel guilty for forgetting your little birthday little girl, I was sure that I had a reminder, and someone should have said something to me… I was so worried about my poor Mum that I was a lot more forgetful than I usually am. The ogress went trundling off out earlier than usual yesterday, and she was not blocking the hallway when I went down to the kitchen just before midday, but I still had to get out of the way when I went down there. That dopey odd three armed uncley swamp thing was screaming and shouting over there at swampy towers yesterday little girl, and some bloke from over the back there shouted at it to shut its great big cakehole… at least it is not just us that they are annoying. It went quiet for a while, but then more lunatics arrived with their nasty old scary fireyworky things, why they have to come around here to let them off in the lane there I do not know. I was just telling Charlie how beautifully quiet it was, and then a nasty old scary whirly thing went whizzing past… now a nasty old scary cop car has gone flying along, and another whirly thing has just gone past, and now it is getting all noisy. That big woofholed old dog from over the back there has just started, and that has reminded me that it was barking for most of yesterday, how could I have forgotten about that, God know what has started it off this time, a sparrow coughing I expect. I had a horrible night again little girl, I kept waking up, and this morning when I was hot in bed, I put my arm out, and Molly came galloping over to wash my elbow… I tried to get back off to sleep, but it was hopeless, so I got up and staggered down to the kitchen. I did not see Jenny out there in the garden until I went back down to make some coffee, but I could not have done anything, as I had to get out of the ogresses way. I will be awake early again in the morning, so I will feed her and Percy then… George has somewhere to go down the lane there, but she will hear me, and come wailing along as she did yesterday. 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
