Sunday 18th March 2007

Do you know, today I'm having some very strange sensations which is making me really feel very flirtatious, playful and amorous. what a shame I couldn't have felt like this on Friday when the young pup came a calling. Supposed I've missed my chance now!!!!!
Friday 16th March 2007

Apparently today's the day, haven;t a clue what this means but then who am I, only the most sensible creature around here at the moment. No doubt it wont involve me because I'm sure I heard her on the phone saying she would get some luch ready. Some ones on the way, but who? Shame i was asleep when she answered the phone. Mama, I can say, is a fine cook and from the smells coming out of the kitchen I recon we're going to be in for a real feast - thats if there is anything left for me. when the door knocks I alert the Mama and she answers it. I cant believe it, Oh my its one of my most favourite lady's. Now its my turn to get excited because this is the owner of my dog friend Flynn, and slowly everything starts to fall into place. this means only one thing and I think theres going to be a bit of canine pleasure going on here. But hang on thats not Flynn!! HaHa this must be the new boy on the block. the one they call Thierry, handsome or what and so young. Its a good job I look after myself or he probably wouldn't look twice at an old girl like me. Mind i must be doing it for him because he's very very excited and is raring to go! Must be the adolescent in him, or perhaps he just needs the garden! OR maybe its because he thinks im very very beautiful!!!!! I can see that this is a dog after my own heart, with taste, class and style. I dont know if i can keep up with all this excitment, I'm sure I have a headache coming on. Perhaps I aught to have a quiet lie down somewhere i shout, but no ones listening, as usual, especially Mama who suddenly puts my collar on. i somehow know that this is not because we are all going for a nice walk in the countryside. The Mama and D R are laughing and saying I must be ready because my tail keeps moving to the side. well I'm sorry but at this moment in time my tail is completely out of my control and no its no laughing matter, one needs to know where ones tail is at all times. And what do you mean ready? Only joking of cause I know whats going on, I'm a woman of the world I am, I just dont want the Mama, D R and Thierry to think I'm too easy. Umh this is not like it used to be, this Thierry dig is certainly not as gentle and romantic as Flynn used to be. But I suppose that will come with age and maturity. I must remember to tell the Mama that these young whippewr snappers are not always what a lady like myself desire. OW.OW,OW that really hurts, Mama why are you holding onto me like this andletting him hurt me so? I really think I am going to cry in a minute. It seemed to go on for a lifetime, but in reality I suppose it was only 5 minutes. Then suddenly i was able to make my escape - YES THE GREAT ESCAPE straight into my hidey hole under the stairs. Believe me i ran for deaar life - not looking back. As I hid, face down and full of shame I could hear the mama, D>R and Thierry laughing and appearing to be in great spirit. I HOPE THEIR NOT LAUGHING AT ME.................. I cant believe that I, a woman of the world, has been upstaged by a young dog less the half my age.

The Mama's best friend 'D' arrived yesterday to sta for a few days. Honestly you'd think they were kids instead of grown humans. All they seem to do is laugh, laugh, laugh. Still it does bring a ray of sunshine to the house I just wish they wouldn't be so noisy about it, sleep is very important to a growing dog. I KNOW I KNOW I'M SUPPOSED TO BE ALERT but that was 4 days ago and I do get easily distracted.

off they go, i think their going to do that human thing called shopping. i suppose they will expect me to protect the place. I hope the Mama brings me a bone or toy back like she sometimes does, as long as its not another one of those round ball things. I'm still trying to work out the locic of those things. You know i'm sure the Mama thinks i'm stupid or something, she throws this ball thing, expects me to run after it, pick it up and bring it back to her. Well I dont mind running after it but I cant quite see the need to bring it back when all she does is throw it away again. You humans do do some strange things sometimes.

Their so excited when they return, laughing and talking and looking at all the things they've bought. "Where's my present?" I told you Mama would bring me something! O MY WORD what are they? PANTS, BIG PANTS - FOR ME!!!!!! How could she? How could she do this to me, the humiliation. I just hope nobody sees me. Ohhh, I think I'm ok, shes got the scissors out and is cutting them, they must be for the ragbin. My dignity is saved - or so I thought. the mama's suddenly got me around the rear end, and OH in goes one leg, and OH in goes another and yes you've guessed, the cutting was a hole for my tail. One tug and the action is finalised. Now the mama nows i'm proud of my figure and try to stay in shape the best I can but can you image my indignation when those dratted pants start to fall down and she and I both realise that the pants she has bought are far too big. How hard is it to buy a pair of pants that fit!!!! Still at least she didn't buy red or black ones. the pink ones are far more complimentary to my complexion. Not quite sure about the pin that's stopping them from falling down. AND what am i supposed to do when i need to go to the garden?

Now what is she going to do with those, i ask you? Mama there scissors and your coming straight at me, what are you going to do? Oh i hope she's not going to cut my underpaw fur again because i'm awefully ticklish. "Oh no, Oh no, its not my paws she's after bnut, but Oh Oh - NO PLEASE NO NO NOT MY BREECHES!!!! Snip snip and there gone. does she not realise how long i've been trying to grow them, I feel truely naked and vulnerable now. THANKS MAMA.

the Mama must be a genius - THE SEASON HAS ARRIVED. Can't quite understand why she's so excited though, normally she moans quite abit about it, something to do with the mess on her nice cream rug as well as the fact we can't go for our usual walks. I'm convinced she's up to something and i am jolly well going to get to the bottom of it. So I need to stay alert, YAW N, stay alert to everything going on, YAWN, stay alert and remember to listen to YAWN all her conversations, YAWN, especially the phone ones, YAWN then I wont miss anything, YAWN Ohhh i'll start tomorrow.

Tha Mama has enticed me up the stairs this morning and theres only one reason for that. Its bath time!! or should I say shower time. I used to agilely jump into the bath for her, but the poor old mama used to struggle bending over the edge of the tub, something to do with her back, so we now do it in the shower cubicle. the Mama's feet get a bit wet but she doesn't seem to mind, unless of course I decide to have a good shake. She's tried to train me to shake on command, usually when i'm still in the cubicle. she does this silly wriggling movement/dance in from of the cubicle saying "shake" "shake" "go on shake" like i'm doing. I'm usually a teny bit embarrassed by her actions and so when she's not looking and i get the chance I tend to dive under the shower curtain, out of the cubicle onto the bathroom floor where there is just so much more room! If your going to have a good shake you might as well make it a big one. its a good job the Mama loves me or I dont think she'd be very happy with me at all. but she is happy and while she was showering me she gave my tummy a lovely long massage with the shampoo............um heavenly. she keeps saying that she hopes that it will help to get me in season because apparently i'm late - thirteen months to be precise. Funny actually because my tummy does feel a bit strange!!!!!!

The mama doesn't realise that I know whats she's up to. Its a good job that worming tablet she's trying to hide in my dinner tastes ok or i'd just lick everything around it and leave it in the middle of the bowl. that was q little trick that Meg, the late black labrador, taught me. she was one very smart cookie, certainly smarter than the mama. does she think that i'm alsways asleep and dont notice what goes on........................"Oh I didn't know you'd been out, where have you beeen to?"
