I\u2019ve had a preview of the bronze resin cast of my paw. It\u2019s amazing. I don\u2019t want to show you until I\u2019ve got the real thing but I think you\u2019re going to be very impressed. Our Mistress is as excited as I am. We\u2019re now discussing exactly where it is going to stand and we\u2019re disagreeing between it having pride of place on the mantlepiece in the lounge or standing on our Mistress\u2019s desk. I think it should go where everyone sees it. She on the other paw says she wants to keep it nearby. I do like her sentiment, but I still think I want to put it where anyone who visits will notice it and ask about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today our Mistress\u2019s main excitement is going to collect the costume she is going to be wearing for a friend\u2019s wedding on Saturday. It\u2019s the first time my Master and Mistress will have been to a Mediaeval themed wedding. Well, for that matter a mediaeval anything! She is dressing as a Lady and our Master is going as a knight. He\u2019s taken some convincing that it would not be safe to take a real sword and has been quite disappointed that no one would trust him with one. I think he\u2019s just making up for the fact that he can\u2019t be in the pantomime this year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now here\u2019s an alarming thought, our Mistress is starting to think about Christmas. There used to be a rule that nothing toward Christmas happened until after my birthday. Well, more to the point, after Grandpa\u2019s birthday which is a few days after mine. Now it seems our Mistress thinks she\u2019s too busy to leave everything until then. She plans to start writing her Christmas letter today and has asked us all to think about the highlights of our year. She has also talked to Wilma about having her photo taken when she goes to Switzerland to see if our Mistress can make her own Christmas cards. Frankly I think she\u2019s going too far but there\u2019s no point in my telling her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have a great Thursday<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n
