Yesterday we had some friends from Switzerland come to visit. It was the first time we’d had guests inside the house since the beast arrived.
She had to be confined to her quarters as she was jumping all over the poor people.
They could only stay a short while but Mom decided to pull out her best China and serve them tea. She has been influenced greatly by her Majesty and Paddington!

That China hasn’t been out of the cupboard since it was moved from Ireland!! Ma is turning over a new leaf (clever people may get the pun) and starting to use things. She says if they break they break.

I decided since bears can join tea parties so can I.

It was great! Auntie Dolo gave me a mini cupcake. I like her a lot and hope she comes back. She’s desperate for a puppy. Maybe I’ll emigrate and escape the terror.

We’ll have to have to keep practicing polite parties.
