Cautious Optimism

On June 15, 2026June 14, 2026 By PippinIn weatherLeave a comment

Hi! Pippin here again. Mummy’s encouraging me to use new words to describe things. I don’t know why, as the old words are completely satisfactory. Never use one word when three will do. I’d rather use one word, thank you. Cold. Mummy was in her sweater again last week. She has more than one sweater, …

Why is the weather so rotten?

On June 8, 2026June 7, 2026 By PippinIn weather3 Comments

Hi! Pippin here, asking the question that most of us in the UK are asking. Why is the weather so rotten? It’s been wet and windy, windy and windy, and cold and damp. It was just about warm enough for us to eat grass for twenty minutes on Friday, but Mummy got very cold even …

Hi! Pippin here, and it’s June! And it’s stopped being sunny. But that’s okay because it’s been too hot to do anything but sit in the coolish room with the outside shade over the door, and the blowy post wafting air across us every now and then. It was very nice, because we’d go out …

We Came Home Again

On May 25, 2026May 24, 2026 By PippinIn Happenings6 Comments

Hi! Pippin here, safe and sound at home. Everything was fine on the Isle of Wight, except the weather and the grass. It was very wet, when Mummy stayed home and read books and stuff, and the next day she played trains, when it was not too bad, weatherwise. I think we went out on …

Postcard from the Isle of Wight

On May 18, 2026May 17, 2026 By PippinIn Happenings3 Comments

Hi! It’s Pippin, from my blue holiday cage on the Isle of Wight. We came on the ferry on Friday. It was a bit strange, because Mummy had to take us out of the car (in our boxes), and take us to the sitting area. I don’t think there was much room because our boxes …
