Hello, where have I been? Good question. I've missed you, too. Unfortuntately, I've been stuck in a phone queue all this time! Eversince my hosting site for this blog crashed! Very annoying being told you are queue number 49! So, finally I'm back, and it feels like forever that I've been gone.

Actually, I handed my husband - king of I.T.- the phone, just while I dashed to the toilet. By this point we were at queue number 7, so I didn't need to rush, did I? What do you reckon? Yep, straight away they started talking to him, at queue number 7!! Where's the justice in that? So, I don't come back straight away, cos I think he is faking the whole conversation. Grrrrrrrr!

Sunset Over Swiss Cottage House

Calm down now! Found some fabulous sunsets, since we've been away. I took this photo from my garde, spooky, eh? Lovely blood-red colours appeared through the apple-trees, too.  Which I might add, are still hanging on for dear life, despite the desperate pecks of the blackbirds now.

Had some terrible stormy nights here in Fribourg, Switzerland. You should've seen the state of our garden. Polystyrene and boxes everywhere. Took my ages with a rake. Even my plant protectors were racing around the garden: trying to get me to chase them. Yes, of course I did oblige.

Hey; my friend has been very upset with me! Because I forget to tell you about him, last time I spoke to you. He's not very patient either, he keeps bouncing on the top of his sofa with his big paws. He really can't wait for his cosy home for Christmas. He loves small children and especially likes to chase the family cat. Does that describe you??

Whew! Finally, he's stopped bouncing up and down for a minute! He's a little difficult to train at the moment. He's only 7.9 x7.9 inches. Purchase him on www.boundlessgallery.com  I've put him on there because their checkout is very quick and efficient for you for Christmas. I can gift wrap him for you, if you like, and send him direct to a loved one. Don't worry, I'll leave air holes for him!

Please don't rain again today Switzerland. I'm tired of so many muddy footprints leaving their art on the floor. I'm tired of returning home wet and bedraggled, too. My husband agreed I was dressing a bit like an old lady these days. Last night I was wearing a large wrap-scarf, woolly socks, and now I've taken to wearing soft-velour track suits. The sort that active old ladies wear. It's the slippery slope I think.  

Well, I blame the weather. I told him I could wear a cat-suit if the need arose. He didn't look so convinced. I mean you can't beat a cosy dressing-gown, can you?

I'll try and show you my Christmas tree next time, something to look forward to, eh? Don't be rude, I'll ban you!
