A day has been spent in the garden gathering many sacks of fallen apples, for there are many of them and yet many more remain on the trees. My lady guardian finds this most pleasing for she is most keen to ensure that the birds have plentiful supplies to get them through the winter. Whilst my male guardian gathered apples, my lady guardian raked leaves, thousands and thousands of leaves, and yet more remain to be raked. It was a cold day but raking leaves built a warmth that required little more than one layer in which to work. With so many apples a duel trip to the local repository was required; quite how my guardians managed to transport so many apples is beyond my belief but the job was done in good time and a welcome cup of fine English tea was partaken on their return.
Once these jobs were complete, supper was prepared for later, the log basket replenished and those little jobs that require regular attention undertaken. Thus prepared for the coming week, we have spent a quiet evening enjoying our leisure. My lady guardian has added many rows to a fine pair of socks, fine woollen garments to add to our collection.
