⛪ Despite ongoing planning concerns, work on the Wee Parasol Cathedral continues. Buzz and Toffee continue assisting Director of Music Cecilia Fortescue FRCOrg with building the two Wee organs. A replacement protective coat has been found for Buzz to prevent her moulting from aggravating Cecilia’s fur allergy. The previous garment, which Buzz complained made her look like “an amateurly taxidermied stoat”, has been donated to the Cheshire Dormouse Welfare Society’s Winter Nesting Appeal. Anyone with similarly utterly revolting coats may wish to consider donating them to this wonderful cause.
The Office wishes all restful evening.
