villagers will embrace it and not mock it. The more the merrier.
Sunday:
Verity I just came by to see if you were ok after last night. The summer solstice rituals were very interesting and I think many of the villagers would have watched it longer or even joined in, though I don’t think anyone was really prepared for when you stripped naked and danced around the fire. The harp music was beautiful and all the crystals hanging from the trees looked magical. The dancing was … lovely. I think the men of the village especially loved the shaking part. I know you had dressed up for the occasion; it was such a shame that the gold body paint and hair spray was so flammable. Thank god for the quick thinking of Gary from the Darts team who decided leaping on you and rolling you in the grass would put the fire out. It’s a shame that he rolled you into the pond, but that was probably for the best, it did wash off all the duck poo that he had rolled you in after all. You didn’t seem to have any scarring, Gary seemed quite thorough in checking you over, but I’ve left you some Savlon just in case.
I was so embarrassed. I’m trying to present a professional front to the spirits on the one night of the year that more spirits can pass through to this world and I ended up looking like a drowned rat. Arron thought it was hilarious, he said it was the funniest thing he has seen in the last three hundred and eighty four years. Gary was very sweet about it all.
I don’t think you looked like a drowned rat, I thought you looked adorable.
Gary.
Oh… Hi Gary, I didn’t realise you were still here.
I was quite shaken up last night, Gary stayed with me to make sure I was ok.
Thanks for the savlon Annie, I’ll make sure it gets rubbed into some of Verity’s sorer parts.
Erm… I’ll leave you to it.
Monday:
Had a lovely, unexpectedly fantastic weekend. I may see you again soon. Don’t forget to check the biscuit tin.
**********
So, now she’s gone, I have to ask, what was in the biscuit tin?
Oh Sophia, something wonderful, something amazing.
Custard Creams?
Yes and something else.
Milk chocolate digestives?
You know me so well.
Do you not think you should have your customers certifiably checked over by a psychiatrist before you allow them to stay?
Why? That makes life more interesting.
I must admit I have never laughed so hard in my entire life when Gary was trying to give her mouth to mouth when she was clearly still alive and kicking. And her harp playing wasn’t what could ever be classed as music.
No bless her, she might have many gifts but musical ability is not one of them.
Gary seemed very impressed with the gifts she did have though.
Very impressed. I thought the groans and shouts I heard on Saturday night and last night was her chanting to the dead, but on hindsight I gather they were something else.

Vivienne Lake Penelope Pitstop
Hi Penelope. Just to let you know, I won’t be here after Tuesday. I’m going to stay with my friend Hetty in Tenby for a week or so before the peak season hits. Apparently she has a rather lovely gardener called Connor that I really need to meet!!! After you I don’t have another booking till late July, so I’m going to make the most of it.
Sophia Lorenzo lives at number three, the pink cottage across the green, she will be around if there are any problems.
I know your friend will be joining you later on in the week. I presume you don’t want the other bedroom made up?

AW ANNIE, PENELOPE PITSTOP? COULDN’T I BE JESSICA RABBIT INSTEAD?
VIV X
AND NO, ONE BED WILL BE FINE.
You certainly have the figure to be Jessica Rabbit, but Penelope Pitstop has those great white boots and the funky car, besides she has spirit, Jessica Rabbit is underhanded and deceiving.
FAIR POINT. I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO A LONG WEEK OF
