August Bank Holiday

31/8/2015

 
Well here we are on the last day of August and it has been raining cats and dogs. What is all that about? Stair rods, buckets - call it what you will. It has been pouring. I took the opportunity to investigate what lie behind some old bales of straw in the warmth of the stable. It was an interesting investigation and I was duly rewarded by finding some yummy bugs lurking in the dark.
"Dear oh dear, Gordon!"
I poked my head around the bale and dutifully listened to Mum's rantings.
"You know, Kizzie has been on a trip along the Wey Canal on a barge today! She got jolly wet."
Yes, I can imagine that there could have been more agreeable days to take to the water.
"And Dad tried to mend the sticky runner in the chest of drawers. He struggled for three hours - and it is now well and truly broken. The ball bearings have fallen out and disappeared. Small though they are, Gordon, they play a very important part."
Like me.
"And what about all those fetes and shows?"
Soggy I should think.
"The forecast isn't too bright for the rest of the week either!"
Well, talk about doom and gloom. But there was at least one of us that was enjoying the inclement weather - Josie!

    About Us

    Hello! My name is Gordon and I am a Gold Sebright and my best friend is Sylvia. She is a Silver Sebright. We live with our foster parents on a small farm in the country.  We thought that we would put our take on life and what we get up to through the year into a diary for you. All the characters are real and the events are a true record,  interpreted with a modicum of poetic licence. We hope you enjoy it. Love Gordon and Sylvia
