The blackberry season has started. With a little more rain we should get a bumper crop. This is the only good news today. Well, Harry is back home recovering from his delicate knee operation, so that is good too. BUT: the switch of the skimmer action in the swimming pool has given up its spirit, and this being Saturday I won't get anybody to replace it before Monday. Plus the cesspool in the little house is rebelling, having had eight people using it for a week.I have put every kind of remedial stuff into the WCs and there is a slight improvement.
I also discovered that the clothes line next door is broken and so far I haven't been able to get it back up.
And Trilby managed to jump from the big fig tree onto the window sill in the livingroom. Since I put a screen in I don't want to have the cats using that entry. It's quite easy to get onto the sill, but Trilby having only three legs, he wasn't able to hop back. I left him complaining and yowling for 2 1/2 hours before I relented and tore the screen to let him in. I do hope this will discourage him from repeating that little manoeuvre.
