Donkey is definitely my favourite character in Shrek. I think his enthusiasm for life reminds me of myself. I watched \u2018Shrek de Derde\u2019, or \u2018Shrek the Third\u2019 to the English speakers amongst you, last night. I did watch it with the English language sound rather than the Dutch, I haven\u2019t suddenly become a bilingual dog. It would be a bit late to master the language now that I am leaving for England. It is going to be hard enough to learning to understand what people in Yorkshire are saying without trying to get the hang of Flemish now too. I\u2019ve got as far as \u201c\u2019e by gum\u201d but no one seems to be able to give me a translation into standard English yet. I hope I will pick it up as I go along, either that or simply hide behind my mistress whilst she tries to do it for me. With less than two months to go I still don\u2019t know where we will live. I do know that for the first time it will be my master driving me to England and not my mistress. He has promised it will be a \u2018real boys outing\u2019, but I\u2019m not really sure I know what that means either. My mistress thought it might upset me to be around when the movers pack everything up, she is worried I haven\u2019t really understood what is happening. Well I have understood and yes, I would be upset. This is my home. My friends are here. I know where I am. I don\u2019t really want to move. I\u2019m sure it will be ok when I get there but I\u2019m really not looking forward to the goodbyes I will have to say. I\u2019m going to miss Elvis most. I wonder if he\u2019ll write to me?<\/p>\n
