The fox! In our driveway! Its fur is just the same colour as Sophie's hair.

It seemed awfully poised, too. Not anxious or panicky at all, very in control.

At least, living here, we know it doesn't have rabies.

It's another stunningly beautiful winter's day here, by the way - everything is blue and gold. And I'm cooking curry and rice for supper, and then we're going to walk the five minutes to the movie theatre to see the new Harry Potter movie. Can't wait!
