It\u2019s not as though she hasn\u2019t been to London before, but she still loves her days out with our Mistress. I suppose when I say \u2018up early\u2019, I should perhaps clarify, that&nbsp; means early in her terms and not really in mine. I\u2019ve been getting up at 3.15am and needing to go out the last few nights. I can understand why our Mistress is finding it a little wearing, but there\u2019s not much I can do about it. Ok, to be fair there was the night I then realised I didn\u2019t actually need to go out and simply got straight into my bed in the kitchen when we got downstairs. I wasn\u2019t too popular for that. I digress. Wilma is all ready and has her things for her day out. Our Mistress is making her take her own things again so she will be wearing her rucksack. She won\u2019t actually put it on until they are in the waiting room at the station as it gets in the way in the crate in the car. They are also stopping at the country park that Wilma likes on the way into York so she can stretch her legs before having to squeeze under the train seats. It will be another of those days with a lot of walking for them, but they will both enjoy that. At least they won\u2019t be too late home tonight so Wilma will be able to tell us all about it before bedtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are staying here looking after our Master. It\u2019s a tough job but it\u2019s the one we enjoy doing the most. I\u2019m guessing there will be the odd cuddle or two and an occasional biscuit. To be more precise I\u2019ve got him well trained to feed me the dried fish treats which really are still right up there as my favourites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have a good Thursday<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alfie<\/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>Wilma was up early this morning, not that she needed to be, but because she is an excited puppy.
