Good morning beautiful Topsy. I am on here early to little you for the first time in about a year little girl. I said to my poor Mum two days ago that I might not be able to make it to see her today, but I do not think that I will be able to see her until the start of next week, that is how bad I feel. I have to go into town today, as I need some bread and a few things, but that is just into town, I do not think that I could walk over sixty miles in the next three days. I walked over one-hundred and forty miles last week, and I have barely done sixty this week, and I have lost a lot of weight. All I did yesterday was keep drinking water, fizzy drinks, and a bottle of milk, I tried a hot drink last evening to help me sleep, but I could not drink it, I could not even eat a bowl of corn flakes, as I did just four days beforehand, I could just about eat half the bowl. I did not need help sleeping last night anyway, I was in bed early, and only woke up once for a drink. Of course, I was awake at the usual time of four hours past midnight, but managed to go back to sleep for another hour and a half. I was just going to go to sleep again when I remembered poor George, who had been waiting since four… I got down there quickly, opened the garden doors, called her, and got a right old telling off. I gave George her two packs of food, let her out, did my usual thing, then got up here out of the way with a mug of coffee. I went back down there to feed Thomas, but she was not there, though George came running in again. I gave her a load of ham, and when I looked for Thomas again, a white and black cat was finishing off the ham. It is very scared of me, and when I opened the garden doors, it had gone, all I wanted to do was to give it more food. The cats know to come here to be fed, but some are do scared, they run away, just as poor Tiddles used to with me, as that evil old ogre treated her awfully. I have to go into town in a few minutes little girl, but I should have much more to tell Molly, Charlie, and you when I come on here tomorrow morning. It has been over three months since I had a long break, and I am throughly exhausted. I love you so much TopTops, I do love you little girl, and I do miss you, I miss you so much too, you beautiful, brave, beloved little girl. XxX
