Quiet day

The forecast was for rain later in the day. The Gorse Fox wondered if he would get a dry game of football. As it came to pass the rain stayed away until the last ten minutes or so of the second hour, and even then wasn't too heavy (though there was absolute cloud burst as he was driving home).

The football was fun as usual. In the first hour we lost 2-1, drew 2-2, and lost 4-2. The Gorse Fox contributed one goal to the tally and provided two assists. In the second hour it was a little better with a 4-2 win, a 2-2 draw, and a 3-1 win. During this spell the Gorse Fox provided 5 assists and had a goal ruled out. All in all a very successful day.

After lunch we were presented with a bird by Jasper. Fortunately it didn't seem injured - merely shocked. The Silver Vixen gave Jasper a good talking to while the Gorse Fox captured the bird and took him out to the garden to allow him to fly away. We can do without gifts like that.

We had to pop into Chichester this afternoon, but again managed to dodge the rain.
