Good morning beautiful Topsy. I ached even more by last afternoon little girl, and I was shivering so much that I had to put that big old woolly jumper on. When I went down there for my noodles, George came crying at the garden doors again, so I gave her another big pack of ham. I then had to be quick though, as something was already waiting for me to get out of the way. I wanted to get in bed quickly after I had been down there one last time last night, but I somehow managed to stay down there for almost an hour. When I did get in to bed, I cannot remember how long it took me to fall asleep, but I can remember waking up a couple of times. Of course, I was awake early this morning as well, and hour before I woke up on that horrible Tuesday morning one hundred and two days ago. I ached so much, I just laid there for about an hour before I got up, and went down there to feed George and Thomas. I was so late, I had to call George when I opened the garden doors, and she soon came running inside. Thomas was not out there, and George did not even eat two packets of food, and when she went out, I got back up here out of the way. I cannot go out today little girl, as I ache too much, and my boots are still soaked through anyway… big surprise though, as it has not even rained yet, and I would be heading back here by now. This is around the time that I was on my way home yesterday little girl, and it was just coming over all dark and windy. I did manage to walk just over eighty miles in six days, so that is not so bad… I do not think I will be going back out until the day after tomorrow though. I love you Topsy, I do love you little girl, and I do miss you, I miss you so much you beautiful, brave little girl. XxX
