A couple of people have asked if they missed a day on the blog. The picture of the truck on it's side didn't seem to provide enough information. I think I was just incapable of saying too much at that point. I was faced by a grinning husband and son trying to hang their heads and look ashamed. I couldn't think what the expressions meant and then I saw the blood on Spooks elbow. Apparently the worst injuries were inflicted by Tony standing on him to get out of the truck. And it really was a little bunny who outran them and executed a sharp turn better than wot a big truck can. Finn was very excited that he had been in a car accident. They had just been starting on their way back and Tony had just been saying how good it was that the evenings excellent entertainment had only cost them 5 bucks. And then the rabbit appeared out of the hole.
But enough of that.....
Spook looked out the window this morning and said it looked like rain. I looked out the window and saw a very thin line of grey cloud sitting above the mountains in an otherwise blue sky. When I got home and hung out the washing at 2.45pm, it was completely dry an hour later. I don't have the temperature gauge I had at Helwick Street, but I would say it was hot. Sometimes I hang the washing out at bedtime and it's dry in the morning. Dry winds. I worry that if it looks like rain on Spooks 4 days off, he might stay in and read a book!!
Meg is missing Finn. She is feeling a little homesick. She misses her friends, her school and even the purple carpet at home. I think we are in the wee dip after the honeymoon period. Mind you, that was last night and tonight she went straight to the wharf after school and didn't get home until 6pm. I think it's healthy to love home.
As for Finn, he is Elmer Fud. ( I know a joke about him!) I think he would be happy to be Elmer Fud in any country.
