She's back!

Another beautiful clear day, and it reached the heady heights of 0°! There was a chilly wind up the hill, but we just stayed round the other side, out of the wind, and it was glorious. JR chucked the tennis ball down the slope for Archie, and he brought it back several times, till he tired of that game. Rufus stood and watched.

Christine came back in the afternoon, and when she texted to say she'd be here in five minutes, I told the boys, and here they are, looking out for her! Archie then moved to his preferred chair at the window for a better view, and I held Rufus there till mum appeared at the gate. Such excitement! Rufus went crazy. So did Archie.

She came laden with presents, too. Welcome home C. We'll miss wee Rufus tonight, but he's booked in for another holiday in May.
