The Calor gas driver left the depot at 6 am and delivered our gas canister soon after 7 am.  Good man and thank you.  We have 20 guests arriving tomorrow and we need to cook in the barn kitchen, where the hob is attached to the calor gas. There is no piped gas outside of villages and we reply on gas and oil delivered to the door.

Lucy is twitching her tail this morning – a possible sign that she is getting ready to go into labour, or maybe not.
