We really had a lovely time with you in Melbourne the other week. Thanks so much for having us!
Since we got back, we have made some additions to our family:
Nugget (above) and Queenie (below).
They live in a hutch out the back, although since it is still so cold we put them in a box in the laundry overnight. On your recommendation I have been reading the Alexander McCall Smith Scotland Street novels. Why are they enjoyable rather than boring? It is very pleasant to sit on the couch reading them with a little guinea pig on your lap. (Don't tell Ruth that we let the piggies inside the house at night.)
Some people say that it is the first day of spring tomorrow. These silvereyes in the backyard seem to think so.
Much love,
Julie.
