Furs Day.

 Today we think of animals that have fur.

Jeremy the fox wandered through the forest. It was something he did every morning because he was looking for food. Not anything too big. just something like a bird or a mouse. Then he saw something through the trees. A bear! Hang on, there were no bears in his country! A fox learns these kind of things quickly. Except for humans, there are no animals that he really has to fear. Well, actually, dog packs too. So, how would a fox learn about the existence of a huge animal that didn't exist in his country? 

He'd listened to the teachings of God Fox. 

Humans like to put animal behaviour down to instinct but, in reality, for foxes, learning comes from devotion to God Fox. It was God Fox who led foxes into the world. It was God Fox who taught foxes how to act and how to avoid fox sin. A good fox will go to the Den in the Sky. Foxes know that. Bad foxes will be hunted by a human with dreaded dogs.

That's enough about foxes for one day.

I wonder where Peter is walking to today? One thing's for sure - he'll be wearing his Mickey Mouse watch...

AND...

he'll be checking beforehand that the top on his water bottle is firmly on.

FIRMLY ON?

He won't want another Island Bay experience.

It's a bit wet in Wellington today, so maybe he's wearing that dreaded hat?

I have told him not to.

But does he listen?

NO.

Robert is busy cleaning churches.

That should cement a place in Heaven for him.

I'm about to wander off and do some violin practice. My practice rate has plummeted over the last few weeks, so it's time to go into catch up mode. 

Ciao tutti.
