WASHOUT

So sorry for all the folks who put such an effort into Lilias Day.  It was a mud bath last year and had to be postponed due to health and safety issues this year - like so many other events...and one or two that were not. 

We retreated into the loft with the VIP and while the wind howled around us (you hear it more in the loft) we had a glorious Legofest. Later he played at vets.  He was my assistant, and dealt with a  long queue of sick animals and impatient owners that didn't want to pay their bills.  I carried out some miraculous healing tricks, including sowing on spiders legs and a head on a giraffe.  (The giraffe had to be carried into the surgery sideways.) I finally rebelled when he brought in a snake, so he throw it out of the window. 'Oh, no,!' I cried, I don't want a snake in my garden!'  He paused thoughtfully for a second, then leaned out and shot it.  'Did you hit?' enquired the Professor.  'Of course,' he replied, scornfully. 'I'm a crack shot.'
