Alas, my dear male guardian was once again duty bound in his professional toil. At the earliest hour, he took the carriage and will not return til the sun has set. My lady guardian however, used to his working patterns, continues in her daily routines and rituals with forays away from the estate as the invitation or whim presents itself.
This afternoon saw once such invitation; a delightful few hours spent walking in our splendid countryside with family members, friends, offspring and dogs. A chill wind prevailed but this did not hamper the walkers, nor their offspring, for much scampering to and fro, tree climbing and general fun was had by all. Indeed, 'twas hard to determine quite who enjoyed the activities more. The dogs ran hither and thither, ridding themselves of the excess energy and stretching their legs, flopping on feet when a short break was partaken, tongues lolling, chests heaving. Me thinks all concerned will sleep well tonight. Whilst the wind was chill, the skies were clear allowing for suitable admiration of the stunning British countryside in its finest of colours. Ne'er a more splendid way to spend a fine autumn afternoon my dears.
My dear lady guardian has returned much refreshed and male guardian is homeward bound.Supper is warming, the lamps are lit and curtains pulled against the chill night air. Peace reigns as we sincerely hope it does for you too, dear readers.
