I wanted to stay in bed yesterday, but no, our Mistress had other plans. So she could do what she wanted to do in the afternoon we all had to have our walks in the pouring rain in the morning. I don\u2019t particularly like the rain. Even Wilma was unhappy as it was driving into her face while she was walking. She was most unhappy that it meant she missed seeing the deer that ran in front of them as she was looking down at the time. On the other paw, our Mistress was quite happy that Wilma didn\u2019t see it as she didn\u2019t fancy being dragged across a wet field in pursuit. Most of the wildlife seems to have got the hang of which of us to avoid. The hares regularly carry on eating when it\u2019s just me and our Mistress, but run for cover very quickly if either of the girls is out for a walk. I was a little bit jealous of our Mistress as in the afternoon she went on a tour of the old airfield, part of which is where we have our walks. She got to go up the old control tower, which is now a house, and said the view all around was amazing. I think I\u2019d have liked to have seen that. When you only see things from a dog\u2019s eye level you can\u2019t get the same picture of scale that even a human is able to describe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today my main job is to help our Mistress measure up for some new roof felt for the summerhouse. I can\u2019t see how this is going to work and I can\u2019t help but think there is a huge potential for it to go wrong, but then I\u2019m only a dog, so what do I know? Yesterday\u2019s job was easier, I only had to help putting the new reel up for the hosepipe and that was done from ground level so far less risky. I was thinking a day relaxing in the sun might be rather more in order but I guess a dog can\u2019t have everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See you soon<\/p>\n\n\n\n
