Busy few days

We've been busy since I last posted .. last Friday we met up with Milly, Duggie, Fergus and Dougal along with Max and Inca (Labradors who think they are Welshies) for a big pre-Christmas walk.  It was really nice - cold but quite dry and sunny, so we had a big run around.  Mum let me off my lead for a big part of the walk, so I was shattered by the time we went home.  Afterwards, we dogs all got cheese and garlic biscuits that Mum had made and the humans went for Christmas lunch, which they seemed to enjoy very much.

On Saturday we went to choose our Christmas tree.  Actually we had already picked it out with Mum earlier in the week, but we wanted to let Dad have a final choice.  He was happy with what we had picked, so the nice man at the nursery is going to deliver it to us this Friday.  So, after that it was home to locate all of the decorations (Dad missed a box in the attic and has to go back up there) so we could make the house look pretty through the week.

We've also been out for some great walks in the fields at Clumber and do the final bots of shopping for presents - the Christmas draw is looking quite full now although we still have loads of sleeps to go before Murphy and I can have a good look at what Mum has put in our stockings.

Whilst I am beginning to get quite excited, I must share with you a photo of my good friend Percy which has been sent to us by his Mum Fi today.  Now Percy is usually a very happy little Cocker spaniel, always with a big wag and a happy smile when we meet.  Not so much in this photo ...

Sorry Perce, I couldn't resist posting this!
