Indian Summer

The Medalr House Mice have been deep in the roots of the tree today ...it's been so hot. That, and there have been two tireless and terrible terriers, Samos ( who lives here ) and his friend Bertie Skallywag Bennett who visits, tearing around the garden.
Best to stay away from them.

The mice are girding their loins for a trip to Deepest Darkest Derbyshire for a really nice show. They so desperately wanted to go earlier in the year but snow and overturned lorries prevented them. How disappointing was that?

This is where they will be seen on Sunday.

It says Autumn but I think the mice will still be in Summer mood. There's another show here later in the year which will be for Christmas and then you'll see a lot more Christmousy things. At the moment they are still wearing big floppy sunhats and pretty summery dresses. And of course every good mouse carries a parasol!
So do I!

I have been very busy over on Heartfelt, making Christmas stockings for dogs. I know, it's only September but I have to start early, as like the mice, they are all completely hand made. This means I haven't had much time for mouse making. Rest assured more mice will be hiding themselves under the roots of the Medlar Tree soon. And you'll be the first to meet them.

Meanwhile lets hope the lovely weather continues. More chance to show off with our lovely hats and our pretty parasols.
