It means we have a bank holiday so can all go out for the day together. We\u2019re going to see my half sister Tosca and all her housemates. Beija has puppies so we will see them too. Shadow is excited because Falk, who is the father of her third litter, will be there too and she hasn\u2019t seen him for a long time. She\u2019s looking forward to catching up about their kids and how they are all doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Forest walk<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_6209.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_6209-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14919\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_6209-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_6209-326x245.jpg 326w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_6209-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/IMG_6209.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>We had a lovely long walk through the forest with Mama and Valeria yesterday. While we walked their human was telling Mum the story of William Tell and how it all fits with Swiss history. It was really interesting and I enjoyed hearing all about my country\u2019s heritage too. Mum would have liked to buy some of the bunting with all the canton flags on it but she didn\u2019t get time to go anywhere yesterday that might have been selling it. She will see if they still have some when she goes to the supermarket tomorrow. She said it would be nice to have some for our stand at Discover Dogs to go with our Swiss flag bunting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">And repeat<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You aren\u2019t going to believe this. Last night Mum and Dad went for ice cream without us again! That\u2019s two days running. I\u2019m really not happy about this becoming a habit. She might forget how much I like ice cream and that would be really bad news. I know it\u2019s been really hot but if they can\u2019t take us with them they shouldn\u2019t go out at all. At least that\u2019s my view. I know we don\u2019t get left out very often but I\u2019d rather it wasn\u2019t at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019d best go. I think we\u2019re going for an early walk before we go out for the day and I\u2019ll be in trouble if I\u2019m not ready to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/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\n\n\n<p>\u00a9 2018 Rosemary J.
