Is it morally wrong to install a CCTV system, in order to spy on your pet rabbit?
… or not
As I was selfish enough to become seriously unwell and spend three weeks in hospital, we thought it was sensible to cancel this year’s cruise.
That cruise set sail yesterday. The great ship Azura has left Southampton without us…
The builders have finished fitting the new shower. Look how nice it is. Annoyingly, we have to refrain from using it for 24 hours. I can’t wait to have a wash – I haven’t used a shower since June!
You must think I surely stink. As I am still waiting for my left leg to heal, following the discovery of its fracture during my stay in hospital, I have been washing using water from the sink. This is a laborious way of washing yourself, which is why I am understandably eager to get wet in this new shower.
The work was finished at lunchtime, leaving Bob the Builder and his mate Scoop to finish early for the weekend. This wasn’t before Roman said his goodbyes. Disturbed by a conversation between the four humans – Claire, me, Bob and Scoop – Roman poked his little head up from behind his wooden box. There he stood on his hind legs, hovering like a meerkat, trying to find out what was going on.
Roman is such a character – if he isn’t sticking his tiny rabbit nose into our business, he’s acting like a tart, trying to get the attention of anyone who enters the room, in the hope they’ll give him a relaxing stroke, or better still, a bunny treat! Unsurprisingly, he got neither of these things from Bob or Scoop.
Day 2 of the shower installation, and it looks like a lot of work was carried out in a short space of time.
The morning was a write off, as the builders were unable to continue with fitting the shower, because there was a problem with a supplier. This meant that they were unable to start work until midday. It also meant that when I needed a mid-morning poo, I didn’t have to ask the two men to evacuate the bathroom, in order to evacuate my bowels.
The shower so far…
