Me: We’re very lucky to have these beautiful walks on our doorstep, aren’t we?
Nell: Yes. Walking down to the stream was most enjoyable.
Me: You tired a little on the way back, didn’t you?
Nell: I just need to take my time.
Me: Unlike Harriet.
Nell: She never stops running.
Me: Has she heard anything from Jim the Farm Dog?
Nell: I don’t think she has.
Me: Oh dear.
Nell: I’m afraid his life is on the farm.
Me: There’s a farm near here, too.
Nell: It’s not his farm. He can’t just move there.
Me: Knitwear Wolf seems to have settled in to village life really well. I saw him out and about with a sidecar full of groceries.
Nell: There isn’t a village shop so he suggested he might help some of the older residents with their shopping.
Me: What a kind wolf he is.
Nell: Rupert enjoys helping others.
Me: I was glad to see Walter Pigeon and his family.
Nell: They were always coming with us.
Me: How about Henry and Horst?
Nell: I’m afraid the insects are missing our old garden.
Me: I understand. So am I.
Nell: They are having to make alternative arrangements for the time being in the gardens of the Stately Home with The Cat.
Me: The Cat doesn’t like insects.
Nell: It’s willing to make exceptions.
Me: Well, that’s a relief. Hopefully we can plant some bushes and add a few plants soon.
Nell: There’s no need to rush. Let’s get rid of the boxes first.
Me: We’ve got so much stuff, Nell.
Nell: I know.
Me: And nowhere to put it.
Nell: I’m afraid decisions are going to have to be made. You can’t keep everything.
Me: I know.
Nell: It will all be fine.
Me: Yes. Sorry.
