They were quite a way out and the girls are totally disinterested in them but it seemed a shame to disturb them, so we went rabbiting instead

Miss Daisy helping me make up knitting kits.

Really she's sad because the David has gone out without her, so it's essential that she sits and looks at me, so that I realise how sad she is about being left just with me
