The overnight sleeper....

My bestest new mate Flossie, well she is since she has commenced doing what I tell her, is a typical Russell. She loves to be above the ground looking at a level at life passing by. When we open the kitchen door during the day she sits and will lick our hands as we pass by. Bending slightly gets you an ear clean at the same time. We gave her an old pillow yesterday to make her eyrie more comfortable; she loves me!!!

Rant:

It's half term. People are desperately travelling to get their kids where they "need" to go at a huge rate of knots. The drivers, male and female alike are so agitated it's worse at times than the school run. I walk along a farm road that leads to the biggest skate park in the country. This morning a convoy of 20+ vehicles hurtled past me. I admit to shouting obscenities at one female driver who nearly hit me. Maybe I need to 'get a life' but I'm quite enjoying this one, have spent enough time in a hospital bed for several lifetimes and have no wish to add to the experience.
SLOW DOWN!

In other news, Kermit has definitely croaked, the post-mortem has been delayed as nobody has seen fit to scrape his paper thin remains from the road.
