There will be 20 of us altogether working to cover 552 between then and the 25<sup>th<\/sup> October when we go to the Embassy. To make it easier for you to donate, we\u2019ve set up a Just Giving page <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justgiving.com\/crowdfunding\/walkforheidi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HERE<\/a> \u2013 please help if you can. I know I\u2019m looking forward to all the walking but it\u2019s still going to be hard on my paws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course being a dog who visits an Embassy is going to be exciting as I don\u2019t suppose many get to do that. Mum has been sending out all the press releases to tell the world what we\u2019re doing. She\u2019s hoping that some of the newspapers or tv might turn out to see us. It would be rather fun although I promise I won\u2019t let stardom change me. Shadow pointed out she\u2019d already been on tv and it was no big deal and she hasn\u2019t let it turn her head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alfie is fed up as his swimming has been cancelled again for tomorrow as Mum is still too poorly to do everything. He says he feels he really needs it, but he\u2019s just going to have to wait. Maybe it will mean he doesn\u2019t mind getting in when he does go back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think I\u2019m looking forward to seeing some of my friends as much as going to the Embassy itself. Salvo and Izzy will be there, which is always good news as they are family too, as of course is Sybil. Bella and maybe Babeli will be there as well. Mum can\u2019t wait to meet Babeli as she is one very cute puppy and she lives with Alfie\u2019s girlfriend which has to be a good thing. She\u2019s also been helping to look after Heidi, the dog we\u2019re raising money for, so she has a lot to cope with for a young puppy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m off to see if Aristotle wants to come out to play. That\u2019s the thing with missing some walks with our Mistress being ill, I need to run round the garden more to get rid of the energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bye for now<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find short stories to read at&nbsp;<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&nbsp;<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>We\u2019re starting the walk for Heidi next Saturday.
