 Here I am, home. Wafa has made wonderful food, which I cannot do justice to. We have enough to eat for a week at least. Perdita is uneasy, probably worrying about That Other Cat. She looks very well.

   The actual homecoming went smoothly. A Cramond carer had done the packing. Alexander and Ketki came in the early afternoon. They were followed by a get-you-up-the-stairs firm, who brought us here. And managed that bit comfortably. And here we are.

   I haven’t done anything yet. I will see to it all in the morning. Famous Last Words.

   Wordle: Four for me. My two starters produced two green vowels, one brown one, and a brown consonant. An anagram, in fact, which I don’t like. My line three turned all of them green, but I guessed wrong for the fifth letter. Wordle told me after line two that there was only one more possibility. After my line three, it said “There was only one possible solution left, and this wasn’t it.” I’ll try to remember tomorrow to tell you  what my line three was. It wasn’t obscene or politically dubious., as far as I can see. It was the second letter I was missing. 

   Others had trouble too. Ketki and Theo  scored six, Alexander five, four for Thomas and Roger, a sensational two for Rachel. Silence so far from Mark.

  3. Oh, well done! You will be very tired simply because of the unusual activity and stimulation. How lovely to be back with your cat.

    Welcome home! And good for Cramond, helping with the packing. I hadn't known about "get you in the house" services. It's good to know that such services are available.

    It would help if Wordle didn't lie. Its responses remind me of an arcade game I saw once, that wouldn't admit you had beaten it, and turned insulting.

    Weather here has been cloudy but not rainy.

    I expect the relief will lead to napping. That's what happens to me. So glad it all went well. And yes, Tamar, the bot isn't really to be trusted.
