You could either a) come round and help me and my Master with a spot of decorating or b) go to Discover Dogs at the Excel Arena in London and meet lots of lovely dogs, including Wilma. Mind you, if you choose the latter then if you could carry some of the goodies I\u2019ve requested my Mistress buys then I\u2019d be very grateful as I don\u2019t think she\u2019s going to be able to manage it all. Wilma\u2019s already pointed out there is very little space in her rucksack for anything other than the basics so I might be relying on your help. For a start, not that I\u2019m complaining, but I seem to have run out of bedtime biscuits. I know it\u2019s not the end of the world as I\u2019m having one from the box that the others use, but I usually have some special ones of my own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, don\u2019t forget if you buy your tickets for Discover Dogs ahead of the day they are cheaper than getting them when you get there. It takes place from 10am to 5pm on both Saturday and Sunday, so you\u2019ve got plenty of time to look around. It\u2019s worth taking a look at their website too, so you know what\u2019s on and can be prepared. If you look at their page on buying a puppy you\u2019ll see a photo of some of my friends on the site <a href=\"http:\/\/www.discoverdogs.org.uk\/content\/buying-a-dog\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HERE<\/a> too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma wants to go to watch the pre-beginner obedience in the show-ring to get some idea of what it would involve if she starts to take part. I think she\u2019s quite looking forward to the whole thing really, including using the Tube in London for the first time. Anyway, don\u2019t forget to order your tickets <a href=\"http:\/\/discoverdogs.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HERE<\/a> and have a great day out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ari.<\/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 then, you\u2019ve got a choice next weekend.
