Hi Gerry, I love and miss you so very much. It was Violets 6th birthday yesterday. We bought her the Harry Potter invisibility cloak which she and Austyn had great fun with. We also got her a fairy and unicorn jigsaw puzzle. I went over to their house and went in the back way to the garden. There we still had to keep 2 metres apart. I thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon as I have not been anywhere for 10 weeks now. Whilst there I was invited to stay for dinner. I was shocked and surprised and felt very emotional and tearful. We had home made lasagne and garlic bread , and Violets birthday cake. A fabulous chocolate bat girl cake. Kelly made the cake and Darren decorated it. A tradition started by you that he intends to maintain for his kids. It is not a very nice day today. It is warm partly cloudy but very strong winds. I have managed to get Di out for a walk today. I had a fright the nigh,. sitting in the garden Di suddenly started ripping the roof of her mouth with both paw. She was frantic and blood was on her paws. I did not know what had happened. She would not let me see into her mouth and could not keep still. She was in a lot of pain and very distressed. I though she might have got a rose thorn stuck in the roof of her mouth. I was going to take her to the emergency vet but tried her with some food to see if she could eat, in case there was something stuck in her throat. When she eventually settled I looked in her moth but could not see anything. She slept well overnight and I rang the vet in the morning who said it would have been a sting in her mouth. She is fine now, but I was very scared. The garden is looking lovely at the moment. Geoff has asked advice about our lawn and is following our treatment of raking out the moss. He has always envied our lawn. Nick wants to buy a flamingo tree like our, he has always admired it. So everyone want to emulate our garden. This is quite a compliment. You landscaped and planted our garden to perfection as you did with everything. We are still in lockdown as the deadly virus is still very much around the world. I am going crazy being isolated alone for what will be a never ending period of time. I wish with all my heart, body ad sol that you were here. I hope where you are it is a much better world that this one. I hope you are happy, loved and free and enjoying your new life and all it has to offer. I HOPE TO WEE YOU AGAIN SOON. Until then please always remember that, I always have ad always will, love you forever and always. I could certainly do with a hug and cuddle from you now. I have not had any human contact for a hug for over 10 weeks and I am craving for you, and your company, cuddle and love. All my love forever and always, Maggie XxX
