Phew, what a night!

Before you ask we were not up all night celebrating because England won some football game (we're more rugby boys really, being Welsh and all).  Oh no, we were woken up at 3am by our house alarm going off, Mum charging around the house looking for a torch (no electricity) and unable to turn the wretched noise off.  After ages, I am told one and a half hours, during which time we were alternatively shut in the garage and then the bedroom and the alarm going off twice more, a very nice man telephoned Mum and told her how to 'kill' the alarm so as we, and the neighbours, could go back to bed.  Another very nice man has telephoned this morning (not sure if it's the same man, don't really mind) to say he will come and see us later to fix the noisy thing.

All seemed to be going well for Mum yesterday too!  We had an early walk before it got too hot and then she took us to work with her (she has a job now - Dad says it's to pay for our biscuits but I don't believe that as Mum said it's only for a few hours a week which means she has loads of time for us and couldn't possibly bring in enough money to pay for all our biscuits).
It was all quite exciting as we got to sit inside a big shed attached to the office where Mum was working.  It was nice and cool for us and we had lots of built-in entertainment watching all the people on the farm.  I'm looking forward to going back another day, especially if we get a hide bone each like we did yesterday.
