Last night I slept in the big bedroom with Craig nearly all night.
Because his friend Zita is still not here so I kept him company. So he would not get scared.
That is an easy job for brave dogs like me.
But when it was nearly morning I got onto the sometimes a bed and kept Niamh company.
I am very busy when Zita is not here. My goodness me.
I did not have all my breakfast this morning because Niamh and I went for a very long walk before it got too hot.
Because it is going to be a hot day and with smelly air too. Oh dear.
But we had a very nice walk.
But not in the farm. We went to where there are sidewalks and lots and lots of trees.
And I saw Niamh’s old university. My goodness it has very big buildings.
When we got into the car I was a bit hot but Niamh knew a trick.
And she put my feet in cold water. And then I was cool again. Ha. But I had soggy feet. Ha.
When we got home Craig was all up too.
But it was time for Niamh to go to her lovely shop.
So she can find beautiful clothes for people.
As soon as she left Craig got me the rest of my breakfast, and he had the first coffees and we had baby doughnuts.
My goodness me.
We did not open the curtains all the way so the house would not get hot inside.
So then I had my good morning nap.
Until it was my lunchtime.
Festis and Furrgus
My goodness. We had an impromptu party last night.
Miss Tarryn’s aunt Mrs. Helen came over for some help making an invitation to a cottage party.
And she brought her computer filled with photographs of Malta.
To show Mr. T.
My goodness gracious those pictures brought back old memories.
I can remember as if it was yesterday, bringing the tanker Ohio into the Grand Harbour.
It was August of ‘42, the Penn tied to one side, us to the other, lest she sink.
And the cheers we got.
Didn’t pay for a drink the whole time we were there.
But it was a close run thing as they say.
Anyway the young ladies ordered pizza and broke out the champagne, and we made a night of it.
I must say morning patrol was perhaps more sluggish than usual. Ah well.
And sun glasses were not really optional.
As it was Thursday and that coincides with the delivery of Suzy Q doughnuts to Victories.
As a result we wasted no time getting there while the selection was still optimal.
When we got home Dugal was still asleep and Miss Pancake had followed his lead.
So we smuggled the cache of doughnuts downstairs and into the freezer without waking either.
That being successfully accomplished we too went to a well deserved sleep.
Miss Pancake
After I finished my first lunch Craig made lunchtime toasts.
With brand new raspberries jam.
And that jam was from France. My goodness it was very tasty jam.
All the Bouviers dogs were from France, but a very long time ago.
And some of my cousins still live there. And they can understand French. My goodness that is a good trick.
Craig’s friend Mister Kirk is in a very very far place. With a very hot desert.
And he went inside a pyramid. Right inside.
And it was made of giant stones.
And there were not any windows.
You should not go into places without windows. It is known.
Mister Max did not go there with him. That was a good idea.
He stayed in a very nice for dogs hotel. And it had windows.
After my second lunchtime Craig and I went outside until we got too hot.
Then we came in and he put cold water from the refrigerator in my water bowl. Ha.
Then I had a very nice nap.
After I had my first dinner Craig and I went into my side yard.
I watched the birds in our very big hedge. One is even as red as could be.
Niamh did not come home for dinner because she add errands to do.
Because tomorrow she and Tarryn and Sach and Mister Jamie and even more people are going to Toronto.
Because it is a holiday all weekend. And they are going to a baseball game.
So Craig had some eggs rolled ups. And I got some of the very crunchy ends. Ha.
When Niamh came home she and Tarryn made the house neat and tidy.
Because Craig told me that tomorrow my friend Zita is going to come back to our house.
So everything everywhere has to be all neat and tidy again.
Oh my goodness gracious me.
