Last night it rained heavily and made lots of noise in our kennel and kept waking us up. Eventually the rain eased but there was no hurry to get up and we wandered slowly to the Bird-Field where it was a soggy day. I was let into the Club-House where it was warm and dry, but it was a frustrating day as it was rubbish for walks. Still, I decided to make the best of it and to cheer people up by allowing them to stroke me so they felt better.

The Noisy Bird was poorly and a man came and spent a while making it well. Eventually, around teatime, the day brightened and the Big Birds took some of the people for rides. Apparently someone went very high and everyone was a lot happier.
