Hop, hop, hop, and hop

PIXIE : Seeing my photo on the ladder which goes up to Claire’s office, Glogirly, Katie and Waffles asked how I did to come down. I asked Claire to film (you will notice that this nincompoop holds her iPhone in the wrong direction for the second video…)

Here we are ! It’s not more difficult than that !

DIY secure window

How to aerate the house in the evening to let in the freshness without Zorro tries to jump into the garden through the open window (and without I try to follow him) ?

It’s the big question since the beginning of the heat wave, and Claire finally imagined an answer. It’s her who built our two window protections, because Momo went on Wednesday to be operated to remove three plates he had in his right wrist. Everything went well, but he cannot do much.

Claire used wooden small boards, wood lattice for vine creepers, and safety net for cat. She wanted to make something which is light, easy to set up or to remove, and little blocking. After an afternoon working, here is the result :

The window protection holds thanks to two small boards which overtake on a side and skip behind the shutter which is opened ; it leans on the other side against the inside of the shutter which is closed. Ingenious, right ?
