Day Six Hundred and Twenty Seven

Miss Pancake



We had another as beautiful as could be day. 

So we have a very very nice walk. The pond was full of ducks.

I think those fishermen caught all the nasty giant fish that eat little ducks. Ha. That is good. 

The sidewalks were not even too hot for my feet. 

But we had to go home to do our work. Oh well.

And two times men came to my door, but only one of them left a package.

And it was a very interesting book for Craig. 



And it was all about Zita’s very dangerous long time ago relatives. My goodness me.

Zita says that they are not so dangerous anymore. Except on motorcycles. Oh dear. 

And as soon as Craig was all awake our friend Tara came to visit us. 

She is very very very busy.

Because she is getting married to Mister Taylor. And it is very soon. Oh my goodness.

Zita and Emmet and Niamh are going to that wedding.

But I am staying here to mind my friend Craig. 

Because he cannot go because if his all wearing out shoulders.

But that wedding is going to be on his own television, so we can see it the same time as everybody. Ha. Good for us. 

And at lunchtime Zita sat on our swinging swing and talked to Miss Jennifer. 

That is a very good swing. Everybody likes to have a nice relax on that swing. 

I minded Craig, because he was very busy writing a very nignstory all about my friends the badgers. 

I did not know that not everybody can see them. My goodness. That is silly. I can see them. 

My friends Emmet and Doctor Alice are in far away London. 

Just for a nice visit, and so Emmet can see that Elephant knight. My goodness that will be excellent.

And when they went out for dinner one of the Badger’s far away relatives was there too. My goodness me.



Badgers everywhere. 

And Niamh and Mister Tyler’s family are at a lovely hotel. And it has its own castle. My goodness me. 


Maybe that is where the Knights stay when they are visiting. 

Maybe even that elephant knight. Maybe.

But it is very hot there. Oh well.

Everybody is everywhere, except for us. We are here. 

Where is beautiful and not too hot for nice walking adventures. Ha. 

After our work, we went for a long adventure drive with Mister Clifford. 

And then at the end we went to our farm. 

And my friends the cows were out have their outside dinner.



So I watched them from right inside Mister Clifford. 

And I had a lovely walk around with Zita. 



And then we went to the nice man who makes delicious all rolled ups.

And he made two of them. One for Craig and the other for Zita.

And then it was detective program time for us.

Day Six Hundred and Twenty Six

Miss Pancake 



It was a beautiful day today, so we went for a lovely long walk all around here.

So we could say good morning to everybody. 

And when we got home we were very busy baking tasty delights. 

And when we finished we had a whole Irish bread for our coffee. 

Dogs can eat lots of Irish bread, because it is good for us. 

And it always has lots of tasty crumbs too. 

But then it was time for our work, so we went into our office 

But before we were way too busy, I went into our bedroom, and got Craig all fast awake. Ha. That is a good job for me.

And when he got up he had two of those muffins Zita and I made. Ha.

But after her very long and not so important meeting Zita went downtown to her other office.

But before she left she made jam toasts with that brand new from Ireland bread. 

And she made one for Craig too. Ha.

That was good for me because Craig is a very good sharer. 

After lunchtime I went outside for an outside nap in the sunshine. 

Then a man came in a very big truck. 

And he had three very very big wooden round boxes for my friend Dugal.



But the man need someone to write on his telephone, so Craig did that.

Because I cannot write my name. 

Because I have not gone to our nice university yet. Just my own school. Oh well. 

But they were too heavy for Craig, even if his poor shoulders worked like brand new. 

So the man and his helper took them downstairs to the other room. 

The one with all the Badgers own wooden suitcases. My goodness me. It was very exciting. 

Then the man gave Craig the paper for those boxes.



And Craig said he would give them to Dugal when he is “in country”  my goodness me. 

It was so exciting Craig had to have another espresso. 

So he got his very little cup. 



So he could be pretend to be Italian, instead of being a pretend Scotsman. 

When he has some tasty croissants he pretends to be from France. Oh well. 

I do not have to pretend because I am always a lovely Bouvier dog. Ha. Too bad for him.

My friend Niamh is at that very very big and noisy aeroport in Toronto. She sent me a picture.


Craig looked at the weather in that place she is going to. And it is way too hot for me.

I am happy I did not go. It is not such a good place for nice furry dogs like me. 

When Zita got home I was very happy and I brought her my own bouncy ball. 

And then I helped her make the dinners before it was time for our detective program.







Wednesday, 29 May 2024

Day Six Hundred and Twenty Five

Miss Pancake 



My goodness me. 

This morning when Zita moved my house into the kitchen she knocked off her middle of the night water cup.

And it crashed on the floor and everything got soggy. 

I went into the living room right away.

And sat on my watching chair until it was all safe again. My goodness. 

And Craig did not have a sleep in today.

Because there were very delicious muffins for breakfast. 

Those are very good muffins because they have lots and lots of crumbs. 

It was so tasty when Craig had his next another coffee he had another muffin. Ha. 

Then I had to mind Zita from my watching window.

Because she was outside being our very best gardener lady.



She was outside even past my lunchtime.

And when she came in, she told me today was my beautiful toes day, with the lovely toes lady.

Maybe she will paint them this time. Maybe.

This afternoon I had a very nice time having a relax.

We did not go for nice walk this afternoon, because we had a very long walk this morning. 

But I watched the little boats in my pond until it was dinner time.

Then Mister Tyler came here, to get Niamh’s another beautiful dress. 

To take with him to an away place, so she can have it there. 

Because Niamh and Tyler and Tyler’s sisters are going to a Las Vagas. 

And his father too. 

Because they are going to have Tyler’s sister’s happy birthday party there.

But they are on different aeroplanes.

So Niamh is going to stay in that aeroport until Mister Tyler gets there too. 

My goodness me. 

And after dinner it was our detective time. 

And it was our very funny detectives too. 

But I went to fast asleep anyway.


Tuesday, 28 May 2024

Day Six Hundred and Twenty Four

Miss Pancake 



We had a very very nice all over my neighbourhood this morning.

Zita told me I am a very good nice walking dog. Ha, good for me.

But then it was time for our work. Oh well.

When Craig got up and he had on another of his brand new for his birthday T-shirts. 

I minded Zita while he had his good morning coffees. 

And when Zita made some toasts she made two for Craig.

So I had to help him.

My friend Niamh is in Toronto working at Tara’s apartment. 

And today Tara got a license. 



You have to have that license before you get married. 

So people do not get married by mistake. 

Last week Craig got a license too.

But it was not to get married. Because Zita married him a very long time ago. 

Even before Emmet and Niamh and I were here with them. My goodness. 

His license was so he could be a car driver and not go to jail. That is a good idea. 

After lunchtime it was a beautiful full of the sun day. 

So I had a relax on the very comfy rug that used to be Mister Mattie’s.



And it has its own pillow. My goodness.

That was a very nice present for me. 

After lunch Zita found these special scissors and tried to trim me so everybody can see my beautiful eyes. 

But I do not like standing so very still. Oh well. 

Zita was very busy this afternoon so I stayed right in our office, in case she needed me. 

But I had to have a real all over bath before dinnertime.

I did not want to have that bath. 

But I had to because I was too very dirty. 

But Zita told me that I was the bravest dog ever. Good for me.

Then I had to stay in the kitchen with a dry me all over fan. 



And all my own towels too. 

And then Zita and I played the take it, leave it game. That is a very good game.

Because we play it with tasty treats. 

Zita made those very delicious made from corns muffins. Maybe the corns were our farm’s corns. Maybe.

They are Craig’s favourite for breakfast muffins. With too much butter. Ha. 

Then it was time to make our dinner. 

After all of us, finished our dinner we watched our detectives program, and they were not even detectives they were spies. 

Goodness gracious me.

So I got up on the sofa and everybody said how very clean I was. Ha. Good for me. 




Day Six Hundred and Twenty Three

Miss Pancake 



My goodness me.

We did not get up this morning. We got up last night. When it was still all as dark as ever.

Because Zita and I drove Niamh to the place where the trains sleep.

So she could find a train that knew how to find Toronto. When it was all awake too. 

Because she is going to work there, and help Tara with her beautiful wedding dress. My good another wedding. 

And when we got home we did not go back to our comfy beds.

And we did not go for a nice good morning to everybody walk either.

Because there was very very loud thunder and so much bouncing off the ground rain.

So we stayed inside and talked to Zita’s parents in far away Dublin. And had toasts too.

Then it was time for our work. 

Because it was go to work Monday.

Zita had her important Monday morning meeting, so I had a very lovely relax on my comfy watching chair.



And Craig got all up and dressed and I did not even help.

Because I was a bit fast asleep. Oh well.

Then Mister Garry came to get his table and to have a nice talk about little children with Zita. 

And after he was gone, Tarryn came here to look at the clothes that they did not sell. 



So they can give lots to people who do not have so many beautiful clothes. That was a good idea. 

Zita put Craig’s giant lamp in the living so he can think all about what to do with it. 



That was a very good idea I think.

I did not go outside very much today because of the way too much rain.

After Tarryn went to her place Zita went to the grocery store and the post office too.

And when she got home it was time to start making our dinner. 

We watch a new deactivate program, because the last one was not so interesting. 

Then it was my bedtime and Craig and Zita came with me too. 

So everyone went to fast asleep at the same time. That was good. 

Sunday, 26 May 2024

Day Six Hundred and Twenty Two


Miss Pancake



It was a very lovely day when we woke up.

But we did not for for even an around here walk.

Because we were too tired.



Because yesterday was the very busiest day ever. 

And I was outside guarding all our friends and all our for sale cheap stuff for nearly all day.

And when I finished that job, it was time to get ready for my friend Craig’s birthday party. My goodness.

And then I had to guard all the guests. 

But most of them were my friends. Ha.

But then we stayed up way past my bedtime. 

That is why I was so tired. 

So after breakfast Zita and I sat in our side yard for a very good relax.

Yesterday Mister Garry gave me a very lovely relaxing mat. 

It used to be Mister Mattie’s, at the cottage, but now it is mine. 

Zita said I was a very lucky dog. That is true. Ha.

When Craig was all dressed he came outside to drink his coffees too.



And he had one of his brand new beautiful t-shirts on. 

The special ones, with the treats pockets. 

Then he and Zita had a bit of his sing happy birthday cake. And it was for breakfast. 

I got a bit too.

Then Niamh and Tyler were all awake too. 

And Tyler cooked lots of stuff and they put it inside bagels. 

And we had them for our together lunch. Ha.



And everybody ate them all up.

But then Tyler had to go home on his fast bicycle.

Because Niamh had to get ready to go to Toronto to do her work and to visit Tara, before the wedding. 

Craig and Zita and Niamh had a special dessert today. 

And it was pieces of Craig secret present pie. 


But it was a not for dogs pie, but I got a bit of the beautiful on top cookies. Ha. 

And after my second lunch I had a very nice chair nap.


Craig wore one of his brand new very soft t-shirts today.

And he had some of the tasty toasty peanuts, they are peanuts before they are peanut butter. My goodness. 



That was interesting for me.

I minded Craig when Zita and Niamh went to get a keep it safe pillow for her computer. 

For when she is working at Tara’s house in Toronto. 

Tara’s mother our friend Kathy fell down and broke her arm. But only one arm, not both.

And she is in far away Portugal. But they have very good hospitals there. 

So her arm did not have to be chopped off. That is good. 

After dinner I was so tired I did not even watch our detective program, because I was fast asleep. Ha.



Saturday, 25 May 2024

Day Six Hundred and Twenty One

Miss Pancake 



My goodness what a busy day I had.

When Zita and I got up Niamh and Tarryn and Dina were already outside putting out all the beautiful clothes for sale.

So right away I was very busy minding everything. 

And then Craig was all dressed too.

And he brought his coffees outside with him. 

So I had to mind him too. 

And it was his own sing happy birthday day too. 

And there were people everywhere, even on our street, not just the sidewalks.

And everybody wanted to buy the best beautiful clothes.



And we had a do not get too hot tent, right on our driveway. My goodness.

And there were lots of dogs all over.

And only one barked at me, and I just ignored it. 

Because it was a silly German dog. 

Bouvier dogs do not like those German dogs so much. It is known. 

And Bruna and Lyndon were here too. 

And we saw all Niamh’s friends. 



And Craig got a giant light, and he does not even know how we will use it. My goodness me. 

And another black music machine. My goodness.

And I was outside the whole time, except when Craig got me my lunch. 

And when Zita was on our lovely swing I had a beside her relax.


And I guarded Craig’s giant light too.

And everybody had a good time. My goodness me.

And then it was time to get everything ready for the sing happy birthday time.

And we had lots of cooked outside hamburgers. Hamburgers are Craig’s favourite. 

And Zita’s very special smelly cheese pasta is his favourite too. Ha. 

We had everybody for our dinner time. 

And Mister Ryan ate nearly all the cheese. My goodness.

And Craig got lots of presents, even a pie full of nuts, and special honey too.

And I got him a machine that makes your telephone sound beautiful. Ha.

Colonel Dugal and Festis and Furrgus got him brand new little little speakers for that machine. Ha. 

And Zita got him more very comfy T-shirts with pockets for my treats.

Then we were all too tired and went to bed.






Friday, 24 May 2024

Day Six Hundred and Twenty

Miss Pancake 



My goodness me.

When I got up this morning, I went to look out my watching window and there was a shop in my house.



And it was full of Niamh and Tarryn’s beautiful someone else’s clothes. Just like a shop.

And it was all over my living room and the dining room too.



And the dinning room table was moved too. My goodness me. 

And after Zita and had our after breakfast walk it was time for our work. 

And then Mister Garry came here too.

Mister Garry was Poppy’s very good friend and his own friend Mister Matti was Poppy’s big cousin.

Now he and Poppy are Uncle Bill’s motorcycle minders. Up in that very far away heaven. 

Mister Garry brought lots of his too much stuff here.

So he can sell it on our front lawn tomorrow too. My goodness what a day for us. 

Then it was lunchtime and Zita and Niamh went to make signs to tell everybody where to buy their very beautiful clothes. 

I stayed in the living room so I could guard everything.



That was a very important job for me. My goodness. 

When I was all finished my lunch Zita and Niamh got home.

But then Craig had two pieces of used Mister Tony’s pizza.

And he did not even cook them. My goodness.

But he ate them in the den because the living room was a busy shop.

But I helped him with the pizza anyway. 

Then Lee came over to help some more so I stayed there to mind everybody. 



Except for Craig, because he was just hiding in the den. 

And Zita even found go in her own boat clothes too. 



My goodness me. What a good time we had.

Then Niamh had an important work meeting downtown.

So she did not have a delicious dinner with us. Too bad for her.

After our dinner Tarryn came here and she made the lawn beautiful for all the beautiful clothes.

There is not even one place to put your car on our streets.

Because everybody wants to get here as early as the sun. 

To buy the stuff we do not want. My goodness.

But Zita put Mister Clifford on his own place before lunchtime. So we will have lots of space for a relax. Ha.

And even Craig will get up early tomorrow. My goodness me. 

Niamh and Tarry and Dina went out and put their come here tomorrow signs all over everywhere.


My goodness tomorrow will be a busy day for me. My goodness me. 




Thursday, 23 May 2024

Day Six Hundred and Nineteen

Miss Pancake 



It was not so very hot today. 

So we had a long all over here walk this morning. 

But when we got home we remembered it was a back to work day and Niamh was already at work.

So I had to mind Zita and Niamh. 

But Niamh was in the living room where my comfy chair is, and Zita was in our office, where there is a comfy sofa. 

So I could mind everybody, and still be comfy. Ha. Good for us. 

But I was so busy Craig got up and all dressed even without my help. 

Craig talked to Zita about our maybe a beautiful stones tower.

But she said that if we had a tower, right away it would be my watching tower. 

And then she would never see me and would be too sad. Oh dear. I would not like that. Oh well.

Then Niamh went into our side yard to do her work, so I went out to mind her too.



So I minded Niamh, by myself.

Then it was our lunchtime, so we went inside.

After lunchtime Zita and the fast car went to her other not so comfy office. 

And Niamh went into our beautiful office and I minded her there too.



Mister Tyler is coming to our house for dinner tonight. And we are going to have pizzas. Ha, 

Pizzas are my favourite too.

And his friend Mister Mitch is going to come and visit me too. My goodness. 

And Niamh and Tarryn are very very busy.

Because very soon is the special sell all our old stuff day. 

And Niamh and Tarryn always have lots and lots of beautiful clothes to sell to people. 



Right on our front lawn.

So I am going to be very busy minding everybody. My goodness me. 

Craig said he would help me. 

Because we are best friends. 

First Mister Tyler came here and then Mister Mitch arrived too.

So we asked Mister Tony to send us three of his very delicious pizzas. And he did. Ha.

Then everybody laughed a lot. 

And I was the best minder dog. Zita told me so. 



And after we started to eat, Miss Tarryn got here too. 

And then Lee and Cara and Devon came.

So I was very very busy minding everybody. 

And because Niamh and Tarryn had lots of work to do for their giant sale, everybody else went home, except for Cara and Lee.

Because they were helpers. 

So I minded Craig and Zita when they went in the den to watch the detective program. 

And had a very nice nap. 

Wednesday, 22 May 2024

Day Six Hundred and Eighteen

Miss Pancake


It was a very beautiful day outside this morning. 

But it was too hot to go to the farm. Because even those sidewalks will hurt my feet. 

So we went for a very long nice walk all around here.

Because we have and lots of trees and they keep our sidewalks not too hot for walking. 

Our new tree is so big and bushy that now people cannot see into our house. Ha. 



When we got home Niamh was already in our office and doing her work.

And she only got home last night.

But I was so very happy to see her. My goodness me. 

I brought her my favourite bouncy ball.

She was a bit very tired. 

Because it even takes an aeroplane a very long time to get here from far far away Italy. 

She even brought presents from there.

Zita got very very beautiful very very little bottles for a flower. 

And Craig got a flag with tassels and a fierce lion on it. 

And it was the flag of that city Venice. 



I did not know that they had lions there.

We do not have lions in my country. 

We have giant polar bears, but they never come downtown. That is good. 

But sometimes those very very big Moose visit people.

So they can go swimming in people’s swimming pools, when it is too hot. 

And she brought some very special cookies from way over there. 

And they had jams all in the inside. 

And not in the middle just all around the outside. They were very tasty.

Craig gave me some, but it was a secret. No body saw it. 

Because they were way too busy talking. Ha. 

This morning Miss Dina came to work with Niamh at our house. 

And she brought muffins with her. My goodness.

So I was very busy all day.

Because I had to mind Niamh and Dina and the house all by myself.

Because Mister Clifford had to take Craig and Zita to a special place.

Because Craig nearly forgot to get his brand new picture card, so he can go see nice Doctor Linsey.  My goodness me.

And they had to wait a long time, but they bought tasty scones. 

And when they got home it was time for Niamh and Dina to go out.

Craig said they were galavanting. 

But I did not know that word. So I ignored him. Ha.

After our dinner the stone lady came to look at a bit of our wall that is a bit wobbly.

She fixes wobbly stones. Maybe she will fix our wall. 

Maybe she can build us a not wobbly at all tower too. Ha. That would be a good idea I think. 

And when I looked out the window the men brought their little go all by themselves boats to our pond. 

Because it is summertime. 

Then we went to watch our detective program because it was our bedtime. 

I had a very busy day. It is known. 



Tuesday, 21 May 2024

Day Six Hundred and Seventeen

Miss Pancake 



We had a very nice sleep last night, because my house has a keep it cool machine. 

But we did not go to the farm this morning because it was a bit hot and the now the grass is all full of nasty bite you bugs.

So we went on a lovely long walk on our own streets. Then we do not get too hot.

Craig was all awake when we got home. And I went in to give him some good morning kisses. 

Then Zita went to the grocery store to get brand new food and she went to mister Kettleman’s to get some very tasty bagels.

Because tonight my best friend Niamh is coming home. And Mister Tyler too.

Because their trip to very very far away Italy is all finished. 

But their aeroplane was late this morning. Maybe they had to wait for a very long time to get their gas.

Yesterday we had to wait with Mister Clifford for a very very long time to get him his go every where gas. 

Because the gas store was so full of cars. 

Maybe there were too many aeroplanes at that aeroport. Maybe. 

That aeroplane flew right over the top of far away Dublin, but I do not think they saw any of our family. Oh well. 

But the fast car and Zita are going to Montreal to find them and bring them home. 

And she filled up the fast car with water and tasty treats. Just in case she said. 

After Zita left Craig made a very delicious peanut butter and honey sandwich. 

And lots of peanut butter fell onto the plate. But I cleaned it all up. 

Then I had a nice relax in my side yard, until I was a bit too hot. Then I had my inside nap. 

Colonel Dugal, Festis and Furrgus are all together back in France for their graduation from their cooking school. My goodness.

Everybody here had graduated, except for Craig. I do not think they had those graduations such a long time ago. 

Colonel Dugal sent me a message on that big flat computer. Craig too.

Soon they will be home he told me, because it is nearly time for Craig’s sing Happy Birthday day. My goodness me.

And Dugal has never missed that birthday, not even one time. Me either. Ha. Good for us. 

He said that the Countessa was very sorry they could not stay. 

Especially since she had just got Dugal a lovely car.



It is very green and has her very own age right on the side. 

Maybe so everybody will know she is old enough to drive a car all by herself. Ha. 

But she said it will just stay in her garage, with her other cars, so it won’t get lonely, until he returns. 

My goodness that was nice of her.

I did not go outside after my lunch because there was lots of all of a sudden rain. 

So Craig and I just had a quiet afternoon with just and some quiet music too. 

And waited for Zita and my friend Niamh to come home to me. 



Monday, 20 May 2024

Day Six Hundred and Sixteen

Miss Pancake 


We did not go to the farm this morning because it was a bit too hot.

And those men cut down lots of my do not get too hot trees.

So we went for a very long all over my neighbourhood.

Because we have lots of beautiful trees all over.

And when we go early the sidewalks are not even a bit hot. 

Last night Mister Clifford took all of us on a long adventure drive. 

I sat up on my own seat and looked out all my windows at everything. 



And I saw a rabbit in front of a house just near to us. 

Maybe it was Poppy’s rabbit friend. Maybe. 

All of Mister Clifford’s windows were open, so I smelled all the very interesting smells. Ha. 

And there were people all over downtown.

Craig said there were visiting our city. 

But they were just going anywhere, but we did not squish even one of them. Ha.

And I saw very beautiful giant horses. They are going to be police horses. 



But they have to go to school first. And we saw their school too. 

It was a very good ride for me. 

Yesterday was Niamh and Mister Tyler’s last all day in the Venice city.

So they did some more all over looking at everything.


They walked where all the tasty snacks and lovely clothes shops were. Ha.



But Niamh had to finish her very beautiful picture.


Before it was time to find the fast train to take them back to Rome.



And when I woke up this morning they were already there. My goodness me.

That must be a very fast train. 

Tomorrow that aeroport in Rome will have a very big aeroplane that knows how to get here.

And then Zita will drive to Montreal and find them and bring them back home. 

So Niamh can have her very own comfy pillows again. Ha.

Pillows are my favourite. I have two. Right in front of my little house. 

After our breakfasts and our long walk Zita went downstairs to make the basement all neat and tidy. 

And she was in our basement nearly all day. 

Because putting everything in the very right place takes a long time.

And then you find things that nobody even remembers. My goodness. 

So I had a very nice nap. 



Because today is a holiday.

Because it was the Happy Happy Birthday day for a long time ago Queen. 

After our dinner Zita and I went to our farm so we could have some nice exercises when it was not too hot. 

And we walked on the sidewalks.

Because the grass is too tall and there might be too many nasty bugs there. 

And when we got home it was the very right time for our lady detectives. 

Then when we were all tired, we went to bed. That is what nice people do when they are very tired. 


















Sunday, 19 May 2024

Day Six Hundred and Fourteen

Miss Pancake 



Zita and I did not go to our farm today. And it was an as beautiful as could be day.



Because we were way too tired.

Because last night, after I was fast asleep we were a dog ambulance.

Because Mister Willy, professor Jill’s little dog was very sick. 

So Zita and I got right into the fast car and took them way out to my own hospital. 

Then we went home and back to sleep, but then we went back to the hospital to bring Professor Jill and Mister Willy back home.

Those nice Doctors found some good medicine for him. That is good. 

And when we got home it was very very late so I got right up on the big bed to keep everybody company. Ha.

But today Zita and I were too tired to go to the farm, so we had a nice relax.

Outside in the side yard with our very big keep you cool umbrella. And we had treats. Ha.

And when Craig was all awake Zita went to the grocery store to get more chicken for my dinners.

Last night Craig forgot about my second dinnertime, so I had to remind him.

He told me that if he was me, he would look for a hotel with much better service. That is silly.

This is not a hotel. 

Because hotels always have up and down elevators. 

Sometimes he is very silly. It is known. 

Miss Tarryn and Mister Jamie were at a big castle in far away Italy. 



But not the same far away Italy as Niamh or Sach. Oh my goodness.

My friend Niamh is still in that Venice and they are having an all over wonder today. 

They even found an extra delicious dessert store. 



That is a good store to find. 

And then they found Mister Tyler’s favourite kind of store. 



The kind of store that is full up to the top with old books.

And Niamh found shop that puts very especially nice ice cream in your espressos. 



Ice cream is my friend Niamh’s favourite. That is a very good shop too. 

And they found even more little bridges. 



I do not think that is a very good place for my friend Craig. 

His fast chair does not like all over everywhere stairs so much. Oh well. 

But in that place they have right outside restaurants, with big do not get hot umbrellas too. 



Just like my side yard. 

Because it was a bit hot outside today so Zita put the cool house machine on. 

So everybody can have good relaxes. 

My street is full of people. 

Because there is a big holiday tomorrow, so everybody is visiting their friends. 

But all my friends are in way far away places, and are not here. Oh well. 

So Zita and I had a very lovely long relax in our side yard. Maybe we had a nice nap too. Maybe. 

But then it was time for my second lunch. Craig did not forget today. 

Our Auntie Eileen called us to tell Zita all about Cousin Simon’s beautiful wedding.

So Zita went outside and sat on our swinging swing so she could talk and have a same time relax. Ha. 

That is why we have that swing. For relaxes.
