I'm beginning to think our house misses us when we go away. Why else should it throw a temper tantrum and break a pice of plumbing as soon as we get back from a trip? (It's not the first time.)
Amazingly small amount of chaos from the cats. groliffe and C must have been specially good to them.
Trip to Waterhouses very pleasant--even the snow--and drive home bearable.
My only gripe is the paucity of crockery, comfortable seats, or even seats at all, in the rented cottage.
