What can I do today? What could I do? What do I want to do now? I did go out for a moment for a breath of fresh air, but it was too damp, with wind and rain. I quickly came indoors again. I know! I could rearrange my ornaments on the window sill!  There's pottery and things made of wood and brass. There are souvenirs and presents. Who broke that box? I have things made in Cornwall and many things from countries overseas. Here are some cats and owls. Can you see the Cornish owl and cat? I like elephants. These are made of wood - they are not white elephants! My mother-in-law used the brass bell in a Truro school playground many years ago. My mother bought the blue bell in America. The black wooden elephant has companions - a black clay pig and a black cockerel (coal, I think).
