Today we had a house warming party! It is, I think, a bit stupid having a house warming party a week before you're leaving, but anyway. First of all we had a big job tidying and cleaning, but thankfully a cleaner came and helped and washed up and stuff. (Most people here have a maid, and we have this woman comes every so often.) Quite a fair few people came. Some friends of Dad's brought a friend of their's, who's a half-English, half-French photographer and filmmaker. He reminds me a lot of my grandad (Mum's dad). We got three photos of mine put on a laminated board (that's what the shop called it, at least) - a sunbird, a heron and a chameleon - and Mum's hung them around the house... The man said he thought I'd make a good photographer, and he said he really liked my photos :3

The carpenter brought the puppies' kennel today, and they're spending their first night in it. They have a two metre run attached to it (it was supposed to be three metres, he made a mistake, but he's going to adjust it asap - as well as adding a door to the run, which he also forgot), but they've got used to freedom, even after only a few days, and aren't particularly keen on it. The run, that is, the actual kennel is good for them, for sleeping. I think we'll be letting them out a lot. And poor Sandy hates the kennel, she really doesn't like being enclosed *sigh* oh well, it'll be easier when it has a door.
We also moved Toffee's puppies onto the verandah, just now. I'll take some photos of them tomorrow.

Just tomorrow, then we're back to school. Yay!

    1. Nope. They're staying here, and our neighbour's gardener is going to feed them. We've found owners for at least four of them.
