Wet

Is excessively stiff. She put some fresh water in the pond yesterday and one of the plants floated to the side. Seemed stable enough but when Myself stepped delicately onto it - Disaster. Was deposited into the water with a sideways twist and lurch. Dripped My way back to the house and managed to sit on the chaiselongue (velvet) before They noticed the damp. ('Tis still very wet this morning.)

TB continues to chew the old shoe We found in the hedge. Why??

Another BB is making odd noises. Thought those birds were all supposed to be female.
