Well, speaking of geese . . .
When she was younger, in primary school, she was telling me that the geese in the playground were attacking the children. They’d be hissing at them, pecking at them etc. The children were scared. I asked when and where this was happening. “In the playground and on the field at lunch times.”
I asked if the teachers were aware of what was happening?
“Yes.”
And what did they say?
“You children stop tormenting those birds!”
Suddenly it all became a bit clearer.

On-hold always feels good when finally allowed to be freed! I wish for you a ‘purple patch’!

A purple patch in a purple field. Beneath a purple sky. Feeling all purpley!
