Good morning Toppy. This is the second Christmas without brave little you, and the fourth without brave Charlie... it just does not seem possible. I thought that I was working properly yesterday, and yesterday morning I was okay, but yesterday afternoon, I had a splitting headache. The ogress has made my poor Mum and me so ill that we forgot to get you all some plants when we went into town the other day, and we only realised yesterday, and by then it was to late to go back into town. I think that I had a good nights sleep last night little girl, I can just about remember getting into bed, and was awake early this morning... but managed to get back to sleep, and overslept by half an hour. Molly came running over to greet me as I drew the curtains, and when I looked out there, there was no snow. It would have been nice to see some, but what can you expect around here, it is below zero, yet still no snow, yet it has probably snowed somewhere very hot. Now that it is cold again, my back is hurting, and I am coughing and spluttering. I do not know if I will be able to come on here this evening, but I will try... if I cannot, I will be on here in the morning. We do love you Toppy, we love you so much little girl, and we do miss you, we miss you so much you beautiful brave little girl. XXXXX
