Those old mice with their big hairy balls

David's hospital appointment is on September 5th, so I have to take the day off.
I bought a new mouse, rechargeable and optical, so no more clogged-up hairy balls. It doesn't always connect when I switch on. Don't know why, manual not much help.
I've just finished Chapter 2 (of the novel, remember?), having managed to get those two characters into bed. Chapter 3 is where we learn their true identities. And now I think I'll go back and revise Chapter 1.
Then we'll make one last attempt to see some balloons at the Balloon Fiesta.
