JOLLY JAPES IN JUNE.. Part Two.

Now.. where was I? Oh yes, cheese and grapes on the table and Otto came in.. when he saw ME on HER head.. his jaw dropped and his eyes, already very large, opened wider. 

He almost shook his head.. but decided, that if he sniffed the very beautiful dark crimson peonies that were on the dining table, the next time he looked at HER, that very strange animated 'hat' that SHE was wearing would have disappeared.

It hard to explain the look of total disbelief on his handsome feline face when he looked back, for I was still there and now, haha, fully aware of the situation and playing to MY audience, with a little stretch here and a big stretch there, with a waggle there and a wiggle here. 

Oh dear, poor Otto, he simply didn't know whether Christmas, Easter or another Bank Holiday was coming next. 

WE left this happy but slightly confused family at ten of the clock, for it takes a 'good' hour to get home and walking to the bus stop, WE sniffed the night air, ahhh, it was deliciously warm and there was a Wisteria growing nearby, such a beautiful fragrance.. the air had the promise for a fine day tomorrow.

And today was glorious sunny day, a perfect English early summers' day. SHE went to meet our Goaty mama Debbie at the Farmer's Market at Parson's Green.. oh yum.. big tub of Goaty Curd, two bottles of fresh raw Goaty Milk and a bag of the silkiest straw for the strawberries. 

SHE was very happy to be able to give a large bag of asparagus to Debbie to say "thank YOU" on behalf of the strawberries.

Oh.. SHE got a compliment today! Debbie said she liked HER crystallised ginger so much, that she would like HER to make her some! So this week SHE has to go and get several kilos of fresh ginger root and Billingtons' raw granulated sugar.. the best to use for this very edibubble treat.

And.. WE are going on a summer holiday.. lots of work for HER to do.. I will loaf in the sun and watch HER for a day or two.. We, or rather SHE, is going to make Debbie a vegetable garden.

So I am going on a train again! "Wagons roll down to Faversham".. how about that! WE will go when SHE has finished all HER planting.. 

But that is then but now, it is the dreaded b-e-d time, which has to happen, SHE has a huge, just enormous amount of 'stuff' to do tomorrow.. so it is "good night" from US both.. have a happy week.

GeeGee Parrot.
