Postponement and Consequent Progress

TYK's Education had to be postponed as it was pouring yesterday and it refuses point blank to go outside in the rain. Curls up in its comfort basket with its comfort blanket (kindly donated by Myself on the evening it arrived) and snoozes gently. Looks so sweet and unassuming that no-one would guess it is the sole cause of My Terrible Injury and subsequent visit to the vet and the hole in TB's head and the rage of the 3SB. (3 Stroppy Blackbirds which it chases without provocation and which now all have very tatty tail feathers.)

Consequently the rats' progress continues unabated (Education) on the allotment. Large holes in the long grass and a well-used muddy trail to and from the pen where the chickens hang around dejectedly and rather soggily. But it was too wet for My delicate paws so Myself rejoined TYK in the kitchen after only a cursory (more Education) glance.

TB is sporting a small piece of non-allergenic (Education again) sticky plaster on its head.
