St Urho’s Success
Festive Finnish Finery
Luckily for the peace and quiet of the Hitty Cupboard, Constance has dug out her St Urho’s Day garb, and polished up her invocation!

Grasshopper Grasshopper, Go from hence!
Heinäsirkka, heinäsirkka, mene täältä hiiteen….The Hittys banish Claude Hopper, the one-bug plague!

Bye!
Min and Mungo thought he was kind of fun.
Happy St Urho’s Day!

Quimper Hittys 
St Urho? I asked myself…… The Hitties have a vast store of knowledge that is a source of constant amazement to me. Google answered my question: http://www.sainturho.com/ I hope that you will send this charming story to the website!
That’s a fun website! I don’t have facebook or Flikr though 😦
You come up with the most amazing storylines! And always beautiful photography. Love the costumes! Poor Claude, where will he go next?
Thank you! I think Claude is probably going to encounter Þóra, who will keep him in line!
Claude Hopper gave us many laughs and great stories. This was one of your very best!! Love that last photo of Mungo and MIn and the shadow…too funny. All the pics are great. Good luck to Claude in his future endeavors!
Claude is off to lead the dissolute life of a musician…the Hittys are glad to see the end of him…
ooops…I just read that Claude might encounter bora??? oh my …that would be worse then encountering Hetty Hickory! We will be anxiously awaiting word of Claude’s fate at her hands. Future episodes!!
If Þóra gets hold of him she will encourage him to enjoy grasshopperly mores, and if he insists on hanging about, she will attempt to teach him better manners, but don’t hold your breath!
