Ascot and Aliens

Hello and welcome to another edition of the blog. We have had lots more visitors since the last blog but one I especially wanted to say hi to is Trixter! Here he is..............................
Trixter was a racing greyhound until he retired recently, but what was more he was a good racing greyhound which means he still finds small furry things very exciting. Kate and Gareth (his humans) are experienced sighthound people and last time they came on hols, they bought Mr. Mac and Sophie their greyhounds with them. Sadly, they lost them both within a short space of time last year and in the meantime had a human puppy called Scarlett! This means that now some rescues won't home dogs with them, as they have a child under 4. Luckily, the rescue they had their last greys from made an exception (very wise too), so Trixter is now in his forever home. He tells me he hadn't done much socialising when he was racing, so everything was a bit new to him. He came to dinner with his Mum and Dad but got a tiny bit excitable with Poppy (the Jack Russell) so we put her in the bedroom and he was fine with everyone else and luurved the ladieees! All the humans were very pleased with him, so keep it up mate!

Anyway, the big story of the week is that Mum went to Ascot yesterday and upset our routine entirely! Dad was supposed to be going too, but he did his back in at the weekend lifting lintels onto the scaffolding and didn't feel he could sit on a coach for 5 hours at a stretch. So, young Jason went instead. Here they are...
The rest of the gang who went................................
Jason knocking back the champagne about 11 am!!

What it meant for us at home, was that we had to get up for a walk at 4 in the morning, as Mum and Jay had to get on the coach at 5am!! Yikes!! It felt like we'd only just gone to bed! Luce of course was up for it, streaking about looking for badgers that hadn't quite made it back to bed. I'm not THAT active first thing, I have to say! Anyway, once we'd been out, that meant we could have a lay in till 10am. A lot more civilised!
Talking about sleep, that reminds me I must tell you about a strange dream I had last week. I dreamed I was out in the garden and surrounded by little white feathery aliens...................weird!It was very scary. Then there were more of them, they seemed to be multiplying.........................
Then there was more.......they were all around me..................even some black ones behind bars..
EEEkk, I was sooooo scared......................................
Then, they all just seemed to vanish, even the very last one.................What a monster!
Anyone else get weird dreams like that? No? Perhaps it was just me then!
Phoebe? No she's far too sensible................................I think?
Anyway, must be off then, got another couple of hours kip in the sun before tea!
Catch you later, Waj x
