Olga de Polga is back again, along with about ten other boarders. It’s always busy at this time of the year for with the children away on holiday, we have to move over a bit when their piggies come into board with us. We don’t have any problems though, for most of them are old friends who board two or three times a year.
This time, Michael Bond himself brought Olga round and we all tugged our forelocks at the man who had the sense and very good taste to write those wonderful stories about Olga’s adventures. He has done one more book about her, which should be out later this year. Olga has told us about some of the things she has been up to, and which Michael has written about in the book but we don’t believe all of it for she is inclined to exaggerate and bend the truth a bit, in her favour of course! First we had to promise not to tell anyone about what’s in the book, so we’re afraid that you’ll have to go out and buy it when it comes out if you want to know what she has been doing.

Himself, has been doing some painting in the kitchen, some more alterations to the boy’s pens, and Saturday night he was drinking some of the amber liquid from a glass and subjecting us to some heavy doses of Count Basie. Disappointingly, he didn’t fall over, and gratefully, he didn’t pick any of us up and use us as his makeshift tenor sax, so in balance it wasn’t too bad.
