We\u2019d only driven 15 miles from home when we left the clouds and rain behind and the weather started to improve. It was only 9 degrees at home but it was 15 or 16 for most of the rest of the journey yesterday, which was lovely. This was a selfie I took at one of our service station stops in France. We had lots of time in the car but some lovely walks too and it\u2019s fun travelling with Shadow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/IMG_3130-e1640725722172.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/IMG_3130-e1640725722172-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11611\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Me and Mum sitting in the sunshine<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>She says she likes having me along too and doesn\u2019t need to bark at nearly so many people when she\u2019s got me for company. Mum was saying to me that I\u2019d stayed in the hotel we were in last night before, but I knew I hadn\u2019t. Then she remembered it was when she was on the way to collect me so of course I wasn\u2019t there and it was with Alfie and when they met my friend Salvo for the first time. Anyway, it was a really nice hotel and we had plenty of space to move around without crashing into things, which is always good. There was nearly a problem with a chicken. I didn\u2019t know I liked chasing chickens until now. The hotel has a nice little lawn for us dogs with bags to clear up just in case we need them, and a bin which Mum says is a big improvement on most hotels. However, next to the grass were the chickens and one had got out. Now my story, and I\u2019m sticking to it, is that I was only trying to help round it up so it would get back into it\u2019s run but Mum was convinced I was intent on harm. She said I\u2019d got that look in my eyes, but I really don\u2019t know what she meant!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find short stories to read at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alfiedog.com\">www.alfiedog.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book as well as our other books are available <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/s\/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;field-keywords=rosemary%20j%20kind\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Now I know what you\u2019ve all been talking about recently.
