RUPERT AND THE DOVER SOLE No 10
Although the dwarf servant is surprised
at the order he obeys at once, hurrying
Rupert inside the building before
excited birds can follow. “Well, well,
this is an unexpected caller,” says the
old Professor. “What brings you here?”
“Gregory and I have been chasing a
mystery,” says Rupert. “In the village
the air has been full of lovely scents,
violets, lemons, roast potatoes, roses,
pineapples, and now coffee. It’s
stronger than ever here, and we want to
explain it! You must have noticed it. Do
tell us what’s going on.”
© Express Newspapers 2019“Quick!” shouts the servant, “Hurry, do,
before the birds can follow you.”
Says Rupert, “The scents are strong,
They do not linger very long.”ALAN’S TIP OF THE DAY: If the garden seems short of flowers, most garden centres have a
few unsold bedding plants, ideal for making up last-minute planters if you need a quick
splash of colour. Otherwise wait for the first autumn bedding plants and winter pansies.To order a copy of Optimism Sounds Exhausting: A Dilbert Book at £12.99 (published by Andrews McNeel) call 01872 562310;

this kind of unpredictability is making
you nervous. Even if you’re surrounded
by people you feel a little isolated and
lonely. You are starting to realise that not
everyone means what they say.Agreements made in the
family will give you a stronger sense of
security. Your work or a partner’s outside
commitments have been keeping you
apart and now you’re ready to devote
more time to each other.Business meetings may seem
informal. Travelling on business will be a
great way to mix business with pleasure.
It might seem like a good idea to make
some financial adjustments but this will
cause tension.Watching the sun set, going to an
outdoor concert or theatre, or a walk in the
countryside are the type of experiences
on your to-do list. If you’re single and eye
contact with a stranger lingers, this could
be a sign that they fancy you.A friend is about to give up
on a task they’re struggling with. You’re
interested in what they are doing. Why
don’t you suggest you join forces to turn
this into a joint project? Their creativity will
complement your practical ideas.It may be necessary for you to
take a long trip to sort out a job-related
matter. You will be given a choice between
taking a salary and earning a commission.
Carefully ponder the pros and cons before
deciding on the best way to go forward.All the hard work and dedication
you’ve already put into your career will
bring extra dividends. It will become easier
to showcase your talent. Are you single?
Don’t play hard to get. Dates arranged now
could make this a life-changing time.Volunteer work can give you a
chance to demonstrate a special skill.
Someone who did not realise what you are
capable of will be full of admiration for you.
They are impressed by your creativity. A
new financial plan is ready to move.Swapping gossip will be
enlightening and you could have a few
good laughs when meeting up with friends.
Don’t just dream about visiting festivals
and walking barefoot in the sand. Do it! It’s
a day to act on your impulses.You take your responsibilities
seriously but someone at home is
missing you. You haven’t been deliberately
neglecting them although they think
differently. You will need to find a balance
between private and outside interests.Change is never without some
risk. If you’re willing to accept this, it
means you can be included in some
exciting plans. Tension and excitement will
build from midday until the time you make
a determined start on your action plan.You wouldn’t be throwing yourself
into a new project if you weren’t confident
you can handle it. Someone will try to talk
you out of it but trust your instincts. If a
relationship is just beginning, you will want
to see each other as much as possible.Aries Mar 21 – Apr 20
