| Mr Ata's Bad Night |
Ata went out at 6:30PM. She returned home at 10:30PM. In the meantime, Mr Ata had a Very Bad Night.
There was a Terrible Backup Problem, that he was unable to resolve. And, worse than this - Bosco went MISSING.
Mr Ata thought that he may, somehow, have managed to get outside (our front door doesn't latch properly all the time). So after having examined every room, cupboard, and known hiding place, calling and calling (Bosco usually comes a-running to having his name called), Mr Ata searched outside. In the dark. And it's raining.
All up and down the street, in gardens, knocking on doors. No Bosco to be found. On returning home, Mr Ata slumped despondently in the lounge. He had spent three fruitless hours looking for Bosco. At about this point, Bosco sauntered calmly past the loungeroom door.
So Bosco is not permanently lost, which is nice. But it is curious that he did not come when called. Mr Ata did not think to try opening the under-TV cupboard (it makes a little click noise, and it's where Bosco's toys get stored when they're not being played with. Opening this cupboard is guaranteed to cause Bosco to drop what he's doing and come racing into the lounge), so it is still uncertain as to whether he was merely hiding or somehow stuck somewhere. Curiouser and curiouser. |

Is that Bosco on the picture? I love this pic.
I can imagine easily how Mr Ata felt on this terrible night, because it happened to me once or twice with my Figaro.

That one is Roswell in the picture. There is a picture of Bosco and Roswell together in a previous post... ummm... not sure how long ago.
