I\u2019m waiting for news on my nephew. He was being picked up from Switzerland at the weekend and should now be in his new English home. I don\u2019t know when I\u2019m going to get to meet him, but it\u2019s exciting to know that he\u2019s much nearer and that I might see him before too long. I do hope he\u2019s behaving himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mum took me for a different walk yesterday and it nearly all went a bit wrong. Unbeknown to her, a small runway for light aircraft now seems to be in use where we used to walk and she had planned to walk across that bit of land. However, as there was a small aircraft being prepared for take off she thought better of it and we walked the long way around instead. I did want to go and give it a good sniff and learn more about it, but she explained what was about to happen, which did a rather good job of dissuading me. As it was, I did get to watch it take off so she was probably right. I asked if we could go across after it had gone up, but she pointed out that at some point it would need to land again so it might not be such a good idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our Master will get to be Santa\u2019s body double again next weekend. He\u2019s already practising his lines and is now to be found saying \u2018ho ho ho\u2019 at every opportunity. I\u2019m hoping I can go to see him again this year, but Mum says I would probably be in the way as she will be helping. She also said that for safety, she prefers me not to be around lots of mince pies as the filling is highly toxic to dogs and I\u2019m very precious to her. After that, you can\u2019t really complain about being left out. I didn\u2019t feel quite so disappointed when I heard that Rudolph couldn\u2019t make it this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have a good week<\/p>\n\n\n\n
