We have bunting up around the village green ready for the Fun Day the humans are having on Saturday. It did rather get me thinking about why we didn’t have any bunting for our Fun Day last Saturday, although I don’t think anyone would have enjoyed it any more than they actually did. Wilma is excited because as long as she behaves she will get to go to the human one as well and help our Mistress. The rest of us are planning a quiet day of not getting involved. Now to be fair I do fancy the idea of trying my paw at the plate smashing, but I’m better at the plate licking when all’s said and done. Shadow says she fancies ‘bat the rat’ but I don’t know whether they are having that this year. Our Mistress is actually having a book stall, selling off spare stock at a big discount – so if you like a good book then our village is the place to be on Saturday afternoon to pick up a bargain.
There is a lot to happen before Saturday and I’m not sure what state our Mistress is going to be in by then as she is planning to stay up all night on Thursday for the result of the European Referendum coming in. I bet she goes to bed. She’s really not that good without sleep. If she does stay up then I for one will be staying out of the way on Friday as whatever the result she’ll be grouchy if she’s tired. Mind you, looking on the bright side, I’m never happier than when we get to stay in bed during the day. I will be there right by her side, trying not to snore too loudly. I’m guessing Wilma and Ari wouldn’t say no to that idea either. Shadow prefers her own space, which works out quite well.
