There has been a theft in the village while we were away! I managed to get out for a bit of solo rambling around the farm today, just to check on one or two things..... like dead badgers and stuff. I thought I would be a bit clever, not wanting to upset The Owner as he is in such a good mood since we have been back, so I went and visited the dead badger up on the hill first and thought I would round the trip off with a quick splash around in the pond on the way back.
Imagine my surprise, SOMEONE HAS STOLEN THE WATER! I did have a good root around but it definitely isn't there. Now this left me with a bit of a problem, a very smelly shoulder and nowhere to wash it off. I thought if I bounded through the door and went straight behind the desk he wouldn't notice. The Owner didn't say anything when I got back and I thought I had got away with it, he soon got up and went outside and I breathed a sigh of relief. Yup, definitely got away with it! Then he called from outside, so I went rushing out as it was about coffee time and that always means its Bonio time, but he closed the door behind me quickly and then produced the hose pipe from behind his back.
I felt he was a little harsh with the way he used that stiff broom as well!
