I've had three friends staying for the day and we had some fun walks.

Spike, Tilly and I found something REALLY interesting. Blue pretended she didn't want to know what it was but I bet she did really.

I was a bit put out when we got home, Blue and Tilly commandeered MY sofa and refused to make room for me, personally I prefer my window but I wasn't going to admit that to them.

HOWEVER.......sorry, I shouldn't shout, however, Spike took over the window watching for his mum coming home - not sure having company is such a good idea!!

Everyone has gone home now so P and I can mellow out and enjoy the evening.
WISHING YOU ALL A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR from P&P xx

WISHING YOU ALL A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS XXX

Wow, little paddy-paws got a bit cold this morning but it was all very beautiful so P went back for her camera which meant we had to do the walk twice. I for one was more than ready to go home for my breakfast porridge.

Today is P's birthday...HAPPY BIRTHDAY... I helped out a lot by grabbing as much birthday cake as I could to make sure she didn't eat too much, there are times a lad simply has to stand up and be counted. We've had a good day.

I had some of the gang round the other day and P said we could do whatever we wanted but her sofa was out of bounds. Well, she shouldn't have gone through for a drink should she? Any self respecting dog is going to head straight for a warm cosy sofa. I wasn't quick enough to get my usual window seat but I did make sure I had room to stretch out.

I have just been subjected to a totally unnecessary bath!!!!!
The indignity of it!
Ok, I was a little muddy and ok, I had plodged through the mud and ok I had rolled in a satisfying amount of deer poo (this was the clincher as far as P was concerned) and ok, looking at the photos the water isn't exactly clean...BUT.... I liked the smell and it took a prodigious amount of effort to get that smelly but never mind, tomorrow is another day and another pile of deer poo no doubt.

I've been on an adventure today. Our normal dog walk goes down the path of the old railway line but becomes very overgrown at the end. P wanted to get as far as the river so that she could catch water pokermon so we enlisted the help of Spike and Clare and Clare's machete.

We followed Clare into the undergrowth with P bringing up the rear carrying nothing more useful than a camera.

A path was cleared right to the river and Spike went in for a swim. I had hung back for a bit to keep an eye on base camp.

We rested for a while back at base camp then home for lunch. I rather enjoy adventures.
