Murphy and I were quite busy last week as our Nana came to stay for a few days and we looked after her when Mum went to work and also when Mum and Dad went to do some shopping on Saturday. They said they had gone to do Christmas shopping, but they didn't come back with many parcels ... and anyway I thought they had bought some presents for us already. Who else is here to buy for??
Yesterday we took Nana home. I like going to her house because you get a good view of her neighbour's gardens from her front window, so there is always lots to watch, and if I'm lucky the odd cat to bark at.
The honour of having the most exciting experience of the week went to Dad. He went off to work on Wednesday and was stopped at the airport by a very nice policeman who had a very nice dog with him (Dad thinks he was some kind of spaniel) and they asked if they could check his bag. Now this dog (we don't know his name because Dad didn't ask!) was specially trained to sniff for money - a bit like Murphy can sniff out polo mints at about 1/2 a mile I should imagine - and he decided that Dad's bag was very smelly indeed ... and he was right because Dad did have some money in his bag!
Dad was allowed to carry on to go to work and he said later that it was all very interesting, but something he could do without at 7 o'clock in the morning!
