a brighter day...at last...

with the news that Henri

was finally on his way in the right direction

thanks to all the wonderful humans

 and

creatures who had been so much help

in getting this world traveller on his way

back to find his third cousin

twice removed

fu fu had

a little lie down

a nap

a snooze

a little shut eye

caught a few zzzzzzzzzzzzzz's

had herself a siesta

she was exhausted

just trying to keep up with all

this

losing

malheurs

wrong turns

buns gone missing

and now

the so called world traveller

travelling in the wrong direction

all because

little joe had kept the most important thing a world traveller needs

a sense of direction

and a gadget to use it with

when she got up to see what was what

she put on her new dress

and it made her feel so much better

she tidied the desktop a little

and it felt good to have some order again

she noted that her cloud

from whence she came

had gotten very small

well, it has been raining a lot she thought

maybe we should go outside and see if we can catch another

but before we do

let's just see what the

machine that knows all

knows now

and when she turned to look at the thing that shows all

she saw this.......

a silhouette of a very familiar shape

no one else would make that shape

but

her

bun

JOE

and he seemed to be sitting on top of a..... 

fountain

a stream of water

a fireman's hose

a whale blowing water

a water main break

(which she hoped he hadn't caused)

a geyser

OH JOE

what are you doing now

and where are you doing it

 how will we ever find you

..................

all of a sudden fu heard little joe yelling

look look look look

fu

LOOOOOOK

it's

my namesake with a wild and frightening creature

it's going to eeeeeeee

and with a tiny little

THUD

little joe fell off the thing that shows all and landed on the keyboard

fu fu

who couldn't believe her eyes

or

put up with little joe's antics anymore

asked poppy to please keep

little joe under control for a while

she had too many things to deal with right now

and one tiny little trouble maker

was one thing too many

so poppy kept little joe under control

and when fu got back to the thing that shows all

there was yet another

picture of

JOE

this time with another even bigger and scarier

creature

but her

JOE

didn't look like he was scared

not one little bit

she whispered to herself

what a brave bun you are

such a brave bun

but we still don't know where you are

but at least we can see you now

know that you are safe

and obviously making your way back

and so many are helping you

standing in front of the

WWW

in my strangely made knicker shorts must have helped

Oh I hope Henri gets there soon

I wonder where HE is

and what he's up to
