Holidays!

A rather dreich day, eventually. Though Archie and I had our walk in sunshine, and I cut the grass later, when JR reminded me. But the rain came in the afternoon. JR put off taking Archie out for ages, but it was showing no sign of stopping, so they set off and got very wet.

While I was cutting the grass, JR gave Archie a big bath, ready for his holidays with Christine and Dougal, though he doesn't know it yet. But he was rather suspicious of the sunglasses.

I spent ALL afternoon fashioning a strap for my walking stick/seat, so that I can carry it over my shoulder. I realised that it would have to come out of its cover, because it genuinely looked too much like a rifle, and I did not want to be arrested.

Yes, we're off to Londinium tomorrow.
