Anybody else want some? The Post Office is half an hour away down the mountain, and today and tomorrow are Spanish bank holidays, but I'm mailing on Wednesday. Free of charge, feathery bookmarks. How can you resist? DM me your address.

I'm amazed at how quickly the mail, both books and bookmarks, are flying from Spain to the US of A! Some books and bookmarks I posted to Spanish addresses on the same day still haven't arrived.

I have to say, yours is the most frequently asked question.
The next most frequently asked question is: "Which bits are true?" If you were wondering, quote me a bit or tell me the page number and I'll answer you. I'll be honest, promise!

Lol! I assume you are quoting from Page 140???
Okay, in answer to your question...
The two black chickens that I'm sure you are referring to were really tame and inquisitive. They kept inspecting Joe's shoelaces and getting under his feet, tripping him up. When he swore at them, the...

NO! I haven't! My author copies still haven't arrived from the publishers! But the Gin Twins (see book) came for a visit from the UK and brought their copies for me to sign, so at least I've seen and held a copy for the first time, if only briefly!
And your daughter's science project...
Hi Christina,
I'm pleased the font and photos look okay. Thanks for offering to send me your copy, that was really sweet of you, but mine should arrive any day. I've heard of a few American people getting their copies now, but no UK or Spanish ones yet.
I'm really pleased you are enjoying it...

Hi Justbugged,
You've got a copy already??? You are the first as far as I know. I haven't received my author copies yet, and I've never even seen a copy. Does it look OK? Are the photos clear? Is the font a good size?
I'm so happy you are enjoying it!

That's EXACTLY what we thought! Until we looked 'genet' up on wiki and discovered it does exist. We don't get genets in England.
Perhaps the hippies were lying and they did eat them... but I guess we'll never know. A sad end for Cocky and the Twins though.
Victoria
Looked up your Snipe Hunt link. Never heard of that before, must use it somehow!
I'm so sorry you were disappointed. The story is true, that's what happened, and poor old Cocky and Twins were killed because we were dumb.
I don't blame the genet at all, it looks like a beautiful animal. It was...
Oh gosh! I'm mortified! It's not your fault, it must be my writing...
The story at that point:
The next day, Joe phoned Cauliflower as promised.
Er, Caul? Its Joe. Just checking that Cocky and his wives are okay.
Hey, man, gotta bit o bad news.
Oh dear, whats the matter?
Sorry...
Well, that's it. Cocky is no more. Final instalment is posted on My Page, Cocky, Part 6.
Let me know if you'd like me to post any more stories.
Coopa: Snow already! My!

The village is having its Fiesta this weekend. Fireworks blasting...marching bands...processions...cooking contests...people coming and going...
I'm not going to be able to put the end of Cocky's story up until things quieten down tomorrow.
Victoria
Hi Froggie,
Cocky's last post (literally) coming tomorrow.
Thanks to the many kind people who have followed his unfortunate story right to the end.
