Prisoners!

~ Sparhawk Scotties ~ 7 Comments

“One Word Wednesday” has been abandoned for today as we report that we are being held Prisoners in our own home! We need rescuing. So come on Scottie Friends, the next best thing after eating food, is that we like to dig – so start digging them there tunnels and set us free. We can get into our garden through the dog-flap so don’t worry ’bout breaking into the house – but be quick ‘cos its raining here today and we can’t pace around the garden all day waiting for you.

We’re even sleeping in different rooms ‘cos we’re so depressed. Yes we do look scruffy, but don’t tell her otherwise we’ll end up on the grooming table – it’s bad enough being prisoners never mind being nice and clean.

And the reason we’re Prisoners! – well we’re waiting for a service man to come (apparently any time between 8am and 6pm) to fix the fridge/freezer – the control panel is flickering and it’s annoying Them. So come on you guys, get digging, we don’t need to snoopervise Their work, we need to get out.

Choresday

~ Sparhawk Scotties ~ 8 Comments

Choresday – off to a good start. Yeah? NO! It was only the banging and hollering of the meter reader man at the garden gate, that woke Mama up this morning ….. at 9:50am!! Her excuse was that she’d set Her alarm at 0600 to help Him wake up to catch the 0715 train to London – after that She promptly fell fast asleep.

So, after our brunch (!!!!) and her 14km exercise bike ride we’d hope to go for a walk. However, we reminded her that it was (a) now too hot and (b) the ironing needed doing. Compromise agreed …. Mama would do the sunbathing ironing  in the garden and we’d get to go on Fin’s favourite walk : round the local reservoir.

Both chores completed it was back home for a late tea …. must be something to do with not getting up till 10am or something.

However, there was one more chore left to do …. hose-duties – no not house duties but hose duties i.e. watering the gardens. Uh-oh another compromise loomed. Today was to be an AFD (Alcohol Free Day) Yeah! get real …. this is our Mama we’re talking about! So bottle of wine purchased on the way home from the Reservoir, tuna, cottage cheese and flax seed combo for dinner (that’s us not Her); followed by Mama with a glass of wine in one hand and the hose pipe in the other : what a way to end Choresday. How was yours?

Peemail Trail

Mum thought it would be funny to post a blog about us “peeing”. So here you will find photos of us reading and writing on the peemail trail.

What you will discover is that we are kept very busy each and every day, as there’s new stuff laid down regularly. And sometimes there are lengthy messages to read. We like to do our job right! Don’t all Scotties! (includes some photos of Gus ‘cos he was brilliant at reading and writing PeeMail)
