It's nearly Friday, and Trixie and I are excited about our move South. I hope The Mistress has the cushion ready in the car for us to sit on, like when she took me to the North Island. There won't be a front-seat view because His Lordship lives with us full-time. Oh well, I must be grateful she announces. Yes, I am, but surely she can see that I won't be able to see very well from the back seat. She says there are 2 more seats behind the seat. We will be put there if we moan. Two more seats, what is this a bus?

The humans do a lot of coming and going, and His Lordship's vehicle has gone and is to be sold. So, we are now a one-car family. Oh, I cannot wait to get moving. 

The Mistress says there will be a day trip back next week, and when the curtains are ready, we will be back with the caravan for them to be fitted and will stay a night or two.

She is chuffed today because the wedding photos arrived. The technology is driving her nuts. There are some good ones, and of course, yours truly is center stage when they sign the marriage license.


The thrilled couple

I hope you can see Trixie and me sitting there watching everything happen. After the photos, we were carried to the reception and sat at their table. Her Brother made everyone cheer as they came through the door together. What a noise! I nearly fell out of my chair, and Trixie could not believe the noise either. 
Now, you do not ever see Gnomes carrying on like this. No human ever hears us as we are special and unique. We just get on with things quietly and mischievously. What we can achieve in one night is priceless, and you will just have to guess, as I am not that silly.
Humans are not invited to any of our celebrations. This is a big NO. These humans prefer to sleep at night, which is excellent for us. We are sure they would be very cross if they knew what we could achieve overnight. My lips are sealed. If I put our plans on here, then the door is wide open for humans to spy on us. 
Watch this space for our next adventure down south.

29/12/24 I have been unable to get on the computer for the past few days. The Mistress has been quite stroppy, and I am far from amused. She seems to pay more attention to the resident cat, who now sits on the arm of her chair. Today, she wrote an email to the cat's human family, and she told the cat this, so the cat put her paw on the Mistress's wrist while writing. What next, I ask you. These two are constantly chatting with each other, and each knows what the other is saying.  Regarding the birds outside, Tabitha is in complete control, with the birds screeching. She does have success at times, and sometimes the Mistress calls her to stop and come inside, which she does, of course.  For several nights now, she has enjoyed being brushed and sending Tabitha into a state of pure bliss. However, she doesn't spend time with me, and I get jealous. It is a tough life being a mere Gnome. Tabitha This cat waltzes past me during the night and is not aware I am watching her....

25/10/24 The humans are melting today and spilling everywhere, making this caravan untidy . They keep saying bad weather is coming, but they are wrong, as I can feel the fine weather in my bones. The onset of night seems to stir a restlessness in the humans. They toss and turn, their covers in disarray, creating a scene of disorder. Yet, this peculiar behavior only fuels my curiosity, prompting me to explore other aspects of this world. Amidst the snoring of other humans, I found myself drawn to adventure. Gizmo was having a grand time in the water feature, so I left him to it. I set out to find those pedal bikes I had seen the other day. I yearned to sit in them and dream of having longer legs and the mischief I could get up to. Being a mere Gnome is tough, but I'm always ready for a new adventure. Despite the challenges, I persevered. The night was long, the place vast, and the campers numerous. Some even left their smelly shoes outside their door. But I didn't let it get to ...

  10/2/25 Yesterday, the humans went out for the day, and we thought they forgot to come home. It was a lovely day, so we went to the vegetable patch. We had to go the back way, down two fence lines. There were humans around, and we couldn't be seen. It was such a long way for our little legs.  Someone dug in the garden, so we went in another direction, as it was huge, and we wouldn't be seen. This limited what we could do, however. Playing amongst the potatoes and tickling them under the pile of dirt was highly entertaining. Throwing them at each other made us fall over and lose our footing. A quick brush down made us sneeze as it was so dusty. Such hard work, we thought. When we had enough, we headed back via the long route. There were humans all over the place. When the coast was clear, we would get to the next place, hide in the shade, rest our weary legs, then move on to the next.  The humans I live with are getting tetchy about this caravan debacle. The Mistres...
