On flat caps and cat flaps

These days we are rapidly closing in on the summer solstice. It's just around the corner in fact. We are celebrating it tomorrow evening by erecting a tall bonfire and burning our favorite hex at the stake. It's an old venerable tradition in this part of the world. Until some german dude not long ago spoiled the party by claiming there's no logical connection between a sunken ship in the Baltic sea and the weird old lady selling eggs and potatoes from her patio. We don't wish to argue with him, but his assertion seems bold and totally out of sync with our traditional ways of preying, persecuting and executing.
Anyways, on account of the warm summer days recently, we've kept the terrace door open during the entire day. This way the cats come in and out of the garden without needing to push open their cat flap. It's a small improvement admittedly, but one that may make a difference to the felines involved. It's hard to ascertain though, since comments have been scant.
The hipsters are long gone, we are told, and so are the flat caps that good people used to wear on the left bank while painting yet another masterpiece. But cat flaps remain useful as soon as the weather turns and the sky falls.These warm days are just a brief intermezzo between two dark ages. Enjoy them whilst you can!
