Greetings everybody from your Queen Zara J It seems like ages since I addressed you last. Last week was Alfa’s
turn and I know how disappointing that can be sometimes. So here we go with
news and some of my personal views of life at DR TOOT.
This week started as a holiday as it was
Labour Day on Monday. Mum, Dad and Masaru relaxed and took it easy. The weather
was pretty good, so daddy finally got the BBQ ready and had their first BBQ
meal for the season. This is the time when daddy seems the happiest. He was
outside cooking meat, kumara, (sweet potato) and stir fry vegetables. Of course
he and Masaru had a beer while mummy prepared a salad. I honestly don’t see
what all the fuss is all about. Alfa and I have our 2 meals a day, in the same
place without any fuss! Fish in the morning and meat in the evening.
Simple……Just never make them late.
It’s been a very woodwind week. Many
saxophones have been on the bench for Daddy, Shoko and Masaru to do their magic
on. With the end of the year performance exams coming up, many players are
getting their instruments checked up and ready. What is the point in doing all
that hard work and not looking after your instrument. Remember it’s team work.
The week seemed go so fast as it was a short week. I personally popped in the
workshop to make sure everything was running smoothly. I take pride in checking
out the tools and making sure the repairs are done to the highest standard.
Alfa does her bit by insuring that mummy is busy at the computer invoicing and
checking that the instruments are ready and packed off to their owners. I have
found Alfa on many occasions on mummy’s desk just watching or sleeping on
mummy’s keyboard. Not very helpful at all.
This week I have met two friends from
another country. As you know, this blog, under my watchful eyes gets viewed all
around New Zealand and the world. This week I would like to give a shout
(Purr), out to Woody, (Bengai Tabby), and Bailey, (Abyssinian Tabby) . They and their servants live in America. Unfortunately
they are both Tabby cats, Like Alfa but I believe, much smarter.
Abyssinian cats are known for their high
intelligence, which is something Alfa has room to work on. Like to extend
another warm purr to Pascha and Tasha in Canada. All four cats come from a very
musical background. Welcome to our world.
This week has been a quiet week regarding
any major sale, but very busy for repairs. Many instruments arriving next week,
but that will be Alfa’s news. Next month is only a few days away. It’s a very
special month for Birthdays. Mummy’s mine and um…..Alfa’s and Rico’s. Summer
here is just around the corner with many more BBQ and events coming up. Stay
cool like me and patient with other cats that are not as well bread as
yourself.
