it will all take shape and flow easily and happily towards a justified conclusion

tuesday (just another day) 

horsemouth feeling anxious and tense (hopefully today - wednesday - it will all take shape and flow easily and happily towards a justified conclusion). he went for a walk on the common. it was very muddy but horsemouth successfully reached the bench on top of the common but then his anxiety drove him on and round. 

horsemouth's mum tells him the controller on the cooker has stopped working (it's an AGA type thing). fortunately the heating seems to be fine so they will not freeze. and fortunately there's an entire electric hob and oven just round the corner of the kitchen so they will  nor starve. horsemouth guesses it is a job for the usual repair man and will resist any suggestions otherwise. 

he has had a look at the downstairs clock - the one hand was blocking the seconds hand (and thus preventing the clock from working) - horsemouth has got it working again he thinks (never work with children, animals or moving parts). 

in a bit he will go out, dig another trench, put in some chicken shit, and then fill it up again. (he's done it. mission accomplished).

the telephone is being a bit glitchy (again) horsemouth thinks it either needs replacement rechargeable batteries or replacing entirely. his mum could (of course) use her mobile phone to make the phonecalls (but that's unlikely). 

and not just the black cat 

now that horsemouth remembers there was a different cat hanging round the house (a white cat with orange markings). a tom (horsemouth thinks). his mum has seen the black cat again (yes it has no collar).
