This week (22)
The heat is back at the Ministry and it’s getting very dry, it’s almost starting to look like a drought! The avenue of ashes (Fraxinus excelsior) at the Ministry is now finally fully clothed. It’s always late but the Ministry Gardener says it’s a sure sign of summer.
The outdoor spa with pool is being set up and almost the whole ministry personnel has taken the first outdoor dip of the year. Refreshingly cold! The Minister (and President) just took a quick evening dip! The outdoor bathing is cut short since the colds at the ministry are still going strong.
The Ministry gardener also reports a mole in the inner gardens lawn. Usually the ministry cats takes care of such problems, but hopefully it will disappear before it tears up the lawn too much. The Ministry carpenter has been busy finishing off the roof over the stable doors with a see-trough plastic part that will let the big farm lamp shine down through so it doesn’t get dark underneath. It has also got a clever hatch to open when the light bulb in the big farm lamp has to be changed… The roof will shelter the stable doors.
A mole at the ministry…
This week the Ministry also has gotten word that Google is giving out warnings for this particular blog, apparently some sort of virus alert… some shady posts has been cleared out, as well as a heap of weird newcomers among the users… Everything has been cleaned out, and some minor changes has been done to avoid future problems. It doesn’t seem to be any greater threat though. Checks have also been made with the web hotel. If your user account has been erased in error please report it to the Ministry and a new one will be set up for you immediately. We apologize for any inconvenient this may have caused you.
