Today my friend Helen is off to the hospital to be tested and see if she can touch her toes yet and things (she cannot) so they can decide if the special injections she is taking are doing good or not but she will kick up a big fuss if they say that they are not because she was in alot of pain before and now there is much less so they better be careful what they say I reckon. Anyway because my friend Nick has been working again even after he promised he would not be this week and we would have a bit more time to do things I will have to be on my own for most of the day but luckily our telly is quite a clever one and my friend Nick has told it what programmes I like and I can watch them while they are out so I will not miss my Deal Or No Deal or Quincy although I must get up quite early for that because my friend Helen is going out early too!

Yesterday when he got home, my friend Nick had a go at doing a seal for me too which is not a big thing that swims in the sea but a special way of closing letters so nobody can read them until you give them permission. It is a blob of wax from a special red candle and then you press a metal thing in it which has a backwards "B" for Bun on it and it comes out the right way round and looks very official. He bought it when we visited the castle at the same time I got my new sword and it is only now he has had a go but it looks great and reminded me of our trip which was nice too and I will use it for secret plans and things so I will put a picture on of it when there is time and everyone is not so busy.

My friend Helen has bought a sewing machine which is for making clothes with and she got it cheap on her computer from a thing that is called ebay which she likes but we will have to drive to a place called Northampton to pick it up so that will be another little trip soon although I do not think there will be time for any sights.
