Things the boys have been up to
Finally …..?
We’re back …… well nearly. Still stuff to do in the garden, so They won’t let us loose on the computer un-snoopervised !!!
Here’s just a few pics of what They’ve done. We might get chance next week to fill you in.
Trust all our fur-ends and anipals are ok out there. Been checking up on a few of you, especially Stuart over at the Scottie Chronicles – what a lad!!
Well, weather’s good here, hope you all have a great weekend
RoooOOooodles
Is it your Scottie’s Birthday?
Please join in with us to add your Scotties name and birthday to our Scottie Birthday Calendar.
All we need is the name of your Scottie and his/her birthday e.g. Hamish, 23rd August.
On the day of the Birthday we shall “post” a birthday message to your Scottie to be shared by anipals and fur-ends.
To join in this fun, you can do one of the following:
- Leave us a comment
- Send us an email : sparhawk@me.com
- Tweet us on @sparhawkscottie
- Or if you have a google calendar account, you can enter your details directly onto the calendar shown on our Scottie Birthday Page (we think!)
Let us start building up our own birthday events, just like our Peeps do on Facebook, and we can celebrate our Scottie-ness between ourselves!
We hope you are able to join us and we will look forward to posting a birthday message to you all.
RooOOOooodles, The Sparhawk Boys
Home Sweet Home?!
Meet Lady Doris.
She is our Home from Home, our wonderful vintage motorhome.
They took us camping at the weekend. Far too many two-legged folks around and only us three Scottie Lads – a bit too one sided for our liking.
We had some lovely morning walks through the Birch woods bordering the campsite and a couple of much longer ones as well.
We walked to Cromford from the campsite. Cromford in Derbyshire is the site of Sir Richard Arkwright‘s first and most important cotton mill. He pioneered the development of his water frame spinning machine and revolutionised the manufacture of cloth, thereby laying one of the cornerstones of the Industrial Revolution. You can read more by jumping over here ……..
The only time we were “inside” was to sleep – so we were all very tired by the time we got home Sunday evening. However that DID NOT STOP US from wanting to go out for our usual morning walk this morning. We made her feel guilty by looking miserable and moping around and so eventually this afternoon, She took pity on us and off we trotted.
It’s now evening and time to blog. We hope you enjoyed this little history lesson – must go and find some Scottish Pioneers ‘cos we are Scottish after all!!
Here’s some photos of what They got up to, with a few photos of us thrown in for good measure!
Tuesday Tantrum!
There will be if we don’t get to go out!
Dad came home from work extra early yesterday, and so we thought we’d take Them to the pub across the fields.
We had a lovely couple of hours all in all. The weather was just perfect. And soon after we got back home, we had our dinner – yummy!
However, this morning there’s talk about NOT GOING OUT TODAY! Just because we went on two walks yesterday does not mean we don’t get to go out the next day!
We’ve told her how unfair that is. Soooooooo ……. she said we would go out later.
As it happens, we always go out much later on a Tuesday ….. so it’s win win for everyone and Tuesday Tantrum is kicked into touch.
Do your Peeps make up these silly rules?
Monday Madness
Yap! Another week starts.
Mum says we are maddening on a Monday. Apparently we act as if we’ve NEVER been out on a walk EVER … so She says!
What she doesn’t realise is that on a Friday when we read and write Peemail, we expect to visit there again on the Saturday – but this isn’t always the case. More often than not we go elsewhere for walks at the weekend.
Soooo ….. Madness on a Monday is only to be expected … there’s a lot of peemail to read that’s been left for us over the weekend and we are desperate to get to it!
However, She says that we are like this EVERY day. Acting as if we’ve never been out. We don’t actually believe that. We are just a happy little pack of very well behaved Scotties. (If you believe the bit about well behaved …… well poetic license and all that, plus we like to make you guys believe we are good little boys! She will tell you a different story)
Anyway all back home now. Half baths completed; carrots eaten; now time for a lovely afternoon snooooooze. See Fin already assuming the position!!!
How was the start to your week?
