I have recuperated to some extend now. <BR/><BR/>I have a tick-removing-apparatus. The STAFF don't. And I don't really want to share mine. THEY put water and soap and things on their skin, so it would just not be hygenic. <BR/><BR/>I am a little concerned about the idea of venturing into the wilderness. But as long as I can take my sofa, I'll be ok. I hope you can confirm that will be possible!<BR/><BR/>The STAFF haven't put the wooden floors down yet. But, they <B>have</B> talked about it a lot. I sometimes think that in their mind, that's the same as actually doing it...<BR/><BR/>Bye for now,<BR/><BR/>OttoOtto the Weimaranerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02759378080845996580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1262348127706125060.post-47603030073329809002008-03-19T14:07:00.000+01:002008-03-19T14:07:00.000+01:00Dear Otto,I hope you are having a wonderful time w...Dear Otto,<BR/><BR/>I hope you are having a wonderful time with your visitors!<BR/><BR/>I don't want to disrupt, there is just some, ehm, neglectable little triviality: would you do me the favor of asking the STAFF if they have a tick squeezer? If not, I will get one to take along to the wilderness (aka Alps). Just for us people of course, nothing for a dog to be concerned about!<BR/>And also, please ask them what they think about vaccinations against TBE, tick-borne encephalitis, (or FSME, Fruehsommer-Meningo-Enzephalitis). I am going to get me a vaccination. Just for the fun of it! And because a health insurance should be good for something.<BR/>Apparently you need three, the second after 4 weeks, and the final after 6 months, but the protection works already from the second one on.<BR/>I dunno. You might want to ask the STAFF. Although I am sure they are not half as concerned about their own health as about yours.<BR/><BR/>But enough of that, now I leave you to your visitors again.<BR/>I hope you are having a great time!<BR/>Yours,<BR/>Gerlinde<BR/>PS - the cats say, slippery floors are great. Whatever slight mishap, your personal assistants can clean it away very quickly. That leaves them more time for you! And also, with a slippery floor you can use rugs as sliding devices.Kamikatzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11153287685872297545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1262348127706125060.post-88102921362281967122008-03-05T15:43:00.000+01:002008-03-05T15:43:00.000+01:00Gerlinde, you are so very right!

Imagine the embarrassment when the visitors have to make do with cushions and blankets which have been drenched in water and chemicals which leave a ghastly smell! When I had juuust got everything smelling nicely. Really, you must have a word with them!<BR/>Finish the kitchen? Hmm, not as such. But they have done something to the bathroom. Not sure what. I obviously avoid that room at all cost! And they have been thinking verrry hard about putting new floors down in the dining and drawings rooms. I hope they won't. I might slip on the wood!<BR/>I'll tell the STAFF you asked after the progress in the kitchen - it will please them to know that you take an interest!<BR/><BR/>Yours, <BR/><BR/>OttoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1262348127706125060.post-87194266211192852182008-03-05T15:15:00.000+01:002008-03-05T15:15:00.000+01:00Dear Otto,your description of what is going on mak...Dear Otto,<BR/><BR/>your description of what is going on makes me wonder if the STAFF, in this outburst of activity, finally did finish painting the kitchen?<BR/>Bathing you and washing your beds shortly before visitors arrive is so short-sighted. How do they think you could manage so quickly to build up a nice new odor? Hopefully you will find something nice to perfume yourself with on the next walk. I am sure the STAFF and your guests would be extremely appreciative.<BR/>Yours,<BR/>GerlindeKamikatzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11153287685872297545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1262348127706125060.post-5426097084682536582008-03-05T12:26:00.000+01:002008-03-05T12:26:00.000+01:00Well, blimey.
