WAKE UP!!!!!

Squeaky Ball

Its a little tiny tennis ball just big enough for my little tiny mouth and it squeaks!! Love it......

SUPERCUTE!!!!

So sorry - its been so long since I last posted. Busy busy busy!!!!!
Bob came over today and tidied up The Dobstar.
He looks SO CUTE I could literally EAT him..........

Glorious Grange

So we all went off and had the most lovely week in Glorious Grange-over-Sands.
Great location, Great Accomodation, Great food (as always) Great bike rides, Great pub lunch, not a bad week at all at work and lots of Doggie-based fun, sniffs and cuddles.

All the facial expressions below are quite representative of the week........

 Dad - "when are we going back to the butchers?"

Mum - "Yes Dear - Dobbie is adorable isn't he?"

Dobbie - "Yep - I'm adorable - REALLY scarily cute"

George - "erm - did Dad something about The Butchers?????"

Beautiful Bala

 So I went off to Bala for the most spectacular snowy walks this weekend.

 Tarka learnt how to do ladder stiles and how to negotiate very deep snow and very slippy ice.

We made it up The Arenig despite drifts up to our thighs and enjoyed a well deserved ham and cheese sandwich at the top.

We set off to do Cadre Idris but made the right decision to turn back half way up when we noticed the only footprints in the snow had full-on spikes on them.

 We were very dissapointed but sure we made the right decision after we saw the warden had posted this sign in the carpark after we set off!!!

Good memories of my favourite picture of me and Amber ? pretty much in exactly the same place??? 

 The most fantastic weekend :-)))

Where's Dobbie???

So Dobbie's carry bags have arrived......

But he is still living-it-up in Notts so I put Teddy in it to make me feel better

 am not sure teddy approves - infact he looks like he is being strangled

...and he wasn't made for the sling

But I am sure dobbie will love it!!!!

Skiing Again!!!

So I went off to La Plagne for another little bit of skiing last week....... 

....with some of my most favourite people.....

 Beers on the first night 

(we got the second best snow-week in 5 years - so we were VERY excited)

 Even whilst sat down completely safe drinking lager on a very stable bench with zero risk of slipping Tiny was fully prepared with her safety aparatus

 ....whilst Me and Bill styled it out risking severe head injury at any minute......

 The Girls - very happy on a nice "crusey blue" completely unaware we about to have to Pole-It for a good 2 miles to get to the bar at the bottom......it was good for the bingo wings tho'

The Most Amazing Lisa (My New Best Friend) bought a fantazi new coat and coped very well with hangin out with her boyfriends weird friends. I will always treasure the memory of dancin' Gangnam Style outside the loo whilst Bill had a poop.......

Mother Mary/The Dalia Lamer/Mother Theresa KICKED ASS on the slopes - booyakasha Mary-Mooster - not only are you the most tolerant person in the world and the best skier of the group (no small thing) BUT you looked NASTY on the slopes - I know my leather-ette H&M NO TOPSHOP trousers were sic-bad but you won (at absolutely everything)

As for me - my skiing was RUBBISH - I had fear all week that I might break something.....not helped by inconsiderate-types falling over and breaking stuff right infront of me and spoiling my day.

The Whole Chalet experience was pretty unpleasant - I think we all forgot how middle aged we are - we underestimated the importance of proper coffee and ground pepper which caused much umbrage and we got served inedible food tds...check it out - ugh!!!!!

BUT - despite that it was a great week

Bring on next year for the 50th's - but lets just make sure we have a cafetiere
