other people’s plans

Having a visitor in the house is good for me.

I’m tidying up much more than usual.

But with all the conversation, there never seems to be time to get anything else done.

Kimbleton is a seasoned traveller. They’ve told me many a tale about their journeys all over the world and into outer space.

They like looking at my maps.

While they were up there on the map shelf, they got talking to the cuckoos.

I’ve never managed to communicate with the cuckoos, but Kimbleton seems to find it easy. I suppose that’s the advantage of foreign travel.

I asked them to find out whether there’s anything I can do to improve the cuckoos’ living conditions.

That clock seems a bit bleak to me. Not cosy.

I hadn’t thought of Teddy as a party bear.

Anyway, I didn’t like to pour cold water on his hopeful plans, but Ruffy’s been warning me about New Variants.

Apparently the Vaccines Minister says we’ll have to carry on being careful even after the twenty-first.

It’s still a worrying situation for a vulnerable bear.
