Dusk, outside

Urquhart is outside, watching the early sunset.

He's not shooting anything right now. The black fur rug he was making is finished.

Instead, he stands, with a mug of mulled wine in his hands, feet planted deep in the snow, and watches the daylight fade into the odd brownish yellow typical for snow clouds, and then, darkness falling, along with more snow.

It settles on his shoulders and in his hair.

"Severe structural problems." Wellington says. "Caused by lorries. The ceiling had been getting lower for a while. I was on the official committee to try and find a new home."

Small proud smile. "I got to go and have a nose around the Queen's garden for that."

"Yes, and by then we'd found out about the abandoned Hyde Park burrow."

"At the time, it was better than the burrow that had just collapsed. We were lucky nobody was hurt."

Wellington just looks worried again now. Surely that sort of thing would be done by Great Uncle Bulgaria, and Tobermory, after all this time?

"Not personally." Wellington says. "I'm a very small fish in a big pond."

"I don't understand." Wellington says.
