Daily Express Monday, April 6, 2020 47“He must come down.” Beryl
decides that they must try to get
help for Rupert. “If he goes any
higher even the fire escape
won’t be able to reach him,” she
declares. Suddenly there is a cry
from Janet. “Why, look, there’s
Lily Duckling floating about in
the air. This is quite mad. What
are they up to?” Sure enough
Rupert sees that his pal is up at
the same height. “What, you
too!” he exclaims. “But do tell
me, how did we get here?”

“What ever shall we do?” they say.
“Oh, hello, Lily! There you are!
I’m glad you haven’t drifted far!”ALAN’S TIP OF THE DAY: Sprinkle general fertiliser round trees, shrubs and perennials and along
the base of hedges. Use a specialist rose feed for roses. Brush off any feed that lands on
leaves and wash it out of crowns of perennials. Delay feeding if the weather is inclement.Ideal as a starter or for a light lunch, this pâté recipes is straightforward to

You are certain to be caught up
in an aura of cooperation that is all around
you. It warms your heart to see how loving
and giving people can be. In a community
effort, be ready to overcome stumbling
blocks before you reach your goals.Although you are nervous about
it, changes taking place in your life and
relationships will not be as dramatic
as you had first thought. Avoiding toxic
situations is critical to your general health
and wellbeing.A career path you thought was
right for you may not be as fulfilling as
you had expected. You could start thinking
about making necessary changes now to
your life. It isn’t as if you have not already
planned for this to happen.You want to feel that you
are doing something purposeful and
meaningful with your life. Think about
those areas that are making you unhappy
and then work out how you might go about
changing them.The future of a partnership
may seem uncertain. You can rely on
information from a friend of a friend. Get in
touch with older relatives who are isolating
at home to check whether they are OK and
see if they need help.News from a distance links with
some ideas that you have for the future,
although you haven’t yet discussed these
plans with any of your loved ones. You are
now more than ready to move forward with
renewed energy.If you’re in a position where you
are trying to gain someone’s trust, use
body language as well as words to get
the message across to them. In business
meetings, it’s always best to keep your
wits about you at all times.No man or Aquarian is an island,
as you are now realising. In the workplace
you are seeing a normalising trend
which will come as some relief to you.
As independent as you prefer to be, it is
always good to ask for help.With so many distractions and
disturbances going on at the moment, it’s
unlikely you will be able to concentrate
for any length of time. It would be better,
therefore, to avoid making important
decisions at this difficult time.Changes need to be implemented
and they won’t be easy. You have had
time to think and are as ready as you can
be to do this. You can’t prepare for every
detail but you’ve put a lot of thought into a
difficult situation.Pressure is building for you to
do more to tackle circumstances that
are causing contention. Your reputation
for fairness has always stood you in
good stead. Your curiosity is aroused by
something that is going on.You could advance a special aim
by joining forces with like-minded people.
It is better to initiate changes yourself than
to have them imposed upon you. Take
common sense measures to protect your
health this week.Aries Mar 21 – Apr 20
