It is a spectacular day, here in beautiful Rutland. The sun is shining, there is no hint of a cloud, as I dictate. From my window ledge, it would appear that we are about to enjoy a very fine day, it is warm already and the river will invite me this afternoon, no doubt. The oblong box tells us, this morning, that the ash plume is moving elsewhere, so we are less anxious about our visitors travel arrangements. Much depends on the wind direction we understand, at the moment a benevolent wind is blowing the ash cloud away from our air space.

I hope the Dear Ones understand that travelling with a Libra can be complicated. I do not wish to preach to the Little Accomplice’s Maman and Papa, but there are certain words of wisdom I feel I need to impart; being as I have a wealth of experience, you understand, having travelled many miles with my own Libra. Firstly Libras are all smiles and charity, patient and benign usually, but can be difficult if bored, so it is a good idea to travel in twos, it halves the workload. They like to travel in comfort, so would book the best form of travel that one can afford, it is well worth the expense and far less earache. Libras like to relax in beautiful, comfortable surroundings; they do not like vulgarity or dirt or having to wait. Travelling companions should see that Libra’s chocolate etc arrives at the precise time, (they love their food), and be ready and willing to discuss literature, politics or the Arts at frequent intervals. In fact a willing slave is required, who does not complain, no matter what hardship is heaped upon their plate. Librans are sharp, and know straight away if a companion is bored, upset or angry and will act accordingly. They are however, willing to be entertaining, if indulged. Destinations must be beautiful, so we will fit the bill as you will know it is beautiful here. Add to this list a few killer outfits in the luggage and you will travel with a happy Libra, unless of course her luggage goes missing; then you will have large problems as he, and the Aylesbury Two, know from past experience.

It is said that, you can always tell a lot about a person from how they deal with the fact that they have lost their luggage. We know this to be a fact, benevolent Libra turns into Attila the Hun, when separated from her killer outfits, as one well known travel firm found out to its cost. Be warned and spread Libra’s killer outfits and necessities amongst your luggage just in case and trust no one.

I am of course
