Mum and Dad's holidaze.

Hi all,
Waj here again, I suppose you've all been wondering how we got on while Mum, Dad and Jason went away on holidays? Well, we were all a bit subdued to start with and Phoebe wouldn't go out at all with Uncle Andy until the Friday after they had left on the Wednesday. Anyway, we all ate our dinners and behaved, but were pleased to see them arrive back late the following Wednesday night. Me and the girls would also like to thank everyone else who helped walk and feed us including Uncle Gary, Uncle Chris and Uncle Matthew who all seemed to have a good time, even though Mum and Dad were away! Anyway, she has shown us some holiday photo's and I dare say you would like to share my maaad humans too! They (the whole family) went to the Pefkos in Rhodes, the same place as Mum and Dad went last year, but unfortuately didn't see HD (holiday dog). They were told that all the stray dogs are now taken to a place where they are rehomed, so hopefully he will have a nice new home this year. There certainly wasn't any stray dogs running around there this year so Mum said!
Anyway, here are the photo's some are rather funny.
The apartments from the front with the mountains in the background...........
looks lovely!

Granny Barbara and Anty Iris enjoying a beer.....

Back of the apartments while the sun was setting.............Jason's idea of unpacking!

They went on a boat trip.

and swam off the boat.

They visited Lindos.

and Lindos Bay.

They ate out every night. From left to right, Barbara, Janet, Chris, Iris, Dad, Mum and Jason. Hilary was taking the photo but I've got a funny one of her later, hee hee!
Anty Iris pulled the waiter!

Then night fell in Pefkos............................................

Then came out ............................................. the cocktails! Mum says these are a mixture of different alcoholic beverages that make you do silly things. Well you can see that! Ha, Ha Hilary!

Jason manages two at once.

Amazing what you can do with a blow up killer whale!

Ooohh Jason.......................

Mum and Dad have a go.......................

Go on, go on, go on ..............guess the caption? Go on, you've seen the film!!

Yes...............you've got it! Free Willy! Hee, hee, hee ............

Just a couple more 'cos I like these shots, the cat fight stand off! Oooh, I love a good catfight.

and the little doggie in a hole. Don't think that this was a stray dog, as Mum says it was in a garden with two others and they had dog beds and everything, but it was obviously cooler in the earth.
Anyway, you're probably photoed out now, I'll still laughing over Dad with the whale.

Speak to you soon,

Mum's 50th birfday

Afternoo all, Waj back again!

I went to the V.E.T last week, went to sleep for a short while and when I woke up Mum and Dad fetched me home. Not too sure what they did while I was asleep but I was a bit stiff for a couple of days but am now back to normal, galloping round and kicking up the grass again! Anyway, glad to get back to blogging again and hear that Phoebe kept you up to speed while I was away. A few weeks ago I did promise you a picture of the wedding hat, so now it's been downloaded from the phone, here it is.........................................................



As you are aware, it was Mum's 50th birthday at the weekend and we had lots of friends come to stay for a big party. Well, the party was going to be held in the marquee, but due to the inclement weather and the gale force winds (which would have bought the marquee down before we'd even started!) at the last minute it was decided to have it in the bottom barn where Gizmo the horse lives.

Well, this barn had not been touched for about 7 years since Mum and Dad moved to the farm and to say it was filthy and full of rubbish was a bit of an understatement. If you'd have seen the cobwebs, they were about 10 foot thick! So off they go clearing the rubbish out. They were there all day Friday had a huge fire and loaded the trailer and the van to go to the tip. Chris (Mr Yeti with the Beastly Beasts) helped out and at the end of the day they were all knackered! Luckily for them, Gill, Chris's partner had cooked them dinner. Thanks Anty Gill!

Saturday was the same, more clearing and shovelling gravel this time assisted by some of Mum's friends, Eddie, Gary, Chris again, Andy and Jason and his girlfriend Carly. The barn was then very ablely decorated by Hilary and Bev so thanks to all who helped. The band was ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT we dogs could hear the festivities from the house and I can tell you they were good!I'm sure you'll want to see some pictures so here they are.

Unwrapping the biggest present from Gill and Chris...... can you see what it is yet?

Can't get in it, so employs a penknife...................................................

Ahhhh, it's a weathervane!

Another present, this time from cousin Pete and Phil. You can tell she hasn't had one before cos she's got it back to front!!

Dad stuffing his face.........................

The highlight of the evening, Uncle Andy suggestively riding the horse to the tune of Mustang Sally, closely followed by Gill and Granny Barbara, with her dodgy hips!!!!

They had a bubble machine.................................

The band were great.................................. and stayed the night!

Kerry and David who travelled all the way from Sheffield for the weekend on a big yellow motorbike in all the wind and rain...............................they must be maaaad!

Mum and Chris.....................................dig the suit and bowtie!

Mum, Chris and Chris, confused? You may recognise Anty Chris from the holiday in Cornwall post when Faith the whippet went to Lands End.

Mum and her friend Anty Sue who has Grace and Paddy whippet having a bump and grind.........

Andy being Andy!!!!!!!!!!!!

So all in all it was a great night as we dogs had a late night run round the paddock as they were up till 3am chatting with the band. Only casualty of the evening was Phoebe who got locked outside the bottom gate when everyone eventually went to bed so had to spend the night in the barn!! My humans are daft!!

Well that's enough for now, I hear we are to be looked after by Uncle Andy next week as Mum and Dad are going on hols. I'm sure we can liven his week up somehow.............hee, hee.

Catch you later, Waj x
