Good morning beautiful Topsy. Yesterday was an awful day little girl… usually I have to stay up here until I am allowed down there, and then something will want me out of their snorting way, but yesterday was different. I was called down there about half an hour early so I could unlock the big old gates to let the plumber bloke in, it seems nobody else could do that, and of course, something was waiting for me to get out of the way. Out of the way I had to get, then not long after, I was called back down there again, as something was just going trundling off out, and had seen that our new cardboard and paper bin had been delivered… it was too lazy to bring it round itself. Down there I had to go again, bring the bin around, and when I got back inside, that blasted thing was waiting for me to get out of its stinking way again. I had to get out of the way as soon as I went down in the late afternoon too. I was down there in the kitchen last evening just long enough to make some noodles, then up here I had to get… and then again when I went down there to the kitchen for Molly last night. It is getting to be just like it was when I was a kid, the only difference is that that spoilt thing cannot stand there grinning whilst the evil old ogre beats me. I do not know how, but I was able to get a good nights sleep last night, and woke up this morning just a few minutes before I used to. I fed poor Percy and George, and when George had finished, I let her out with a big lump of ham, gave poor Percy his usual, then got back up here before I got in somethings way. Then it started all over again when I went down there to make the coffee, and out of that blasted things way I had to get as quickly as I possibly could. Thankfully, I will be getting just over three hours of peace today, that is is it does not come home early again. I have no idea if I will be able to come on here to Charlie and you tomorrow little girl, but I will try to get on here. I love you so much Topsy, I do love you little girl, and I do miss you, I miss you so much you beautiful brave little girl. XXXXX
