The Great Escape

Well it's been a long time since I've written but I've settled into quite a routine now and there's not so much to report any more.

However I was a naughty boy on Sunday. Wendy & Richard were going to the carol concert at the church and had some visitors coming. Unbeknown to them, while they were meeting their guests I made my escape through the open door.

In my defence it was time for my daily walk (even though they'd taken me for a long one an hour before).

They realised I was missing and started to look for me - there was only 15 minutes to go to the start of the concert.

Then the phone rang and a very nice lady said that although I was very nice and she was happy to take me for a walk, she was worried that I was getting further and further from home and she wasn't coming back that way!!

Yes - I'd used my initiative and tagged myself on to a nice lady who seemed to be going for a walk. She kept telling me to go home but I couldn't see a reason to. Unfortunately Wendy had put our phone number on my collar.

Wendy and guests went on to the church and Richard had to run to catch up with me - by that time I was a good 5-10 minutes from home. He wasn't best pleased. Wendy says when he arrived in the church there was steam rising off his back where he'd got so hot.

Got to meet Kay (Wendy & Richard's sister-in-law) who lives in France who thought I was lovely and has invited me to go and visit and play with her dog Granger. She lives down in a national park in the pyrenees and there's lots of walks so maybe one day Wendy & Richard will take me.

On Wednesday morning this week whilst out for a walk with Wendy I spied a rabbit and chased it across a field. Having caught up with it I wasn't very sure what to do. I chased it round in circles for a bit and then it stopped and just squeaked. I ran around it for a bit then got bored and ran back to Wendy. It's no fun when they don't run!!
