Sodden Birds and a Chinese

Has done nothing but rain. Makes Myself very stiff. Spent most of yesterday in the warm conservatory watching all the wet birds. The baby blackbirds are completely sodden and having great difficulty flying. Landing on the other hand is easy and occurs with much regularity when they least expect it.

The family ended their day by buying a monumental Chinese meal for Her. As always, far too much to eat in one go so I helped out when I found the fridge door was not quite closed. Hopefully She will not notice the red sauce on the red carpet. (Pushed the slice of lemon under the unit.) Prawns brilliant once I had removed some of the rice, chicken very tasty, noodles not bad but rather slippery. Think I ate too much all at once though.
