Nibby's New Residence

Just had a chat with my sister Nibby in Kangaroo Valley. She has just moved into her tiny place. She has a marvellous marble bathroom and a new IKEA kitchen and wonderful river views, but there are still boxes all over the place. It seems that a family of possums have moved into the small roof space. I have suggested fixing a security light to the wall where they go in and out with a sensor, which might deter them and send them away, but apparently they are quite territorial.

She has sold another couple of paintings which will help with the renovations. She tells me that she is buying a siamese kitten. She has been without a siamese cat since she has been in Australia, but otherwise, has always had one since our family sealpoint cat Lulu, bought when she was a small child.

She is on a flood plain and it has done nothing but rain recently. However, neighbours have assured her that her house has never been flooded, unlike many in the vicinity.

I told her about Dorothy's new clothing departure and she said her gay friend has bought a large fridge magnet of the 'only gay in the village' character from Little Britain, which you can apparently dress up in all his different outfits. May purchase one of these from Old Compton Street, probably American Retro or somewhere similar.
