Rather than find a specific day I decided I\u2019d just look back through a few more photos and bring you some of my memories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-flashback-to-me-and-alfie\">Flashback to Me and Alfie<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I found a lovely photo of Alfie smiling for the camera when I was young. We were best buddies. I looked up to him and he took care of me. He was there right from when I left Switzerland and came to the UK. He stood up for me when the others weren\u2019t so pleased to have a new arrival. Alfie always had my back. He was that kind of a guy. I love being around Aristotle and playing, but it\u2019s a very different relationship. Ari has never felt the need to be my protector as Alfie did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_2482-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18006\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-my-lovely-switzerland\">My lovely Switzerland<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, when I start looking back I always pull out pictures of my lovely Switzerland. We heard from some of my friends and family yesterday and miss them so much. I just can\u2019t wait to be able to go and see them all and run on my mountain. I think when we go to my mountain we might just stay there whatever the weather is doing. It will be so good to be back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"18007\" src=\"https:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_2488-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18007\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"18009\" src=\"https:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_2582-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18009\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-flashback-to-discover-dogs\">Flashback to Discover Dogs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This weekend has been the time for Discover Dogs in London some years. There isn\u2019t one this year. I\u2019ve only been to the one in London once and that was what made me decide to tell you about happy memories instead. There was nothing wrong with Discover Dogs itself, it was the train and then the Underground and another train and a walk later through busy London streets. There was just way too much going on for my liking. It all got to me a bit. However, I\u2019ve loved the times when I\u2019ve been on our stand at Discover Dogs at Crufts. I found these photos from one year when I had my own press pass and could go and mix with the other journalist dogs in the Press Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"18011\" src=\"https:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_2962-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18011\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"18014\" src=\"https:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_2976-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18014\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There were parts of the NEC that other dogs weren\u2019t allowed to go with their humans. I could just show my pass and say \u2018it\u2019s ok, she\u2019s with me,\u2019 and they let Mum through with me. How cool is that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead I\u2019m just going to sit here and watch the leaves fall and search for fallen fruit from the trees. It\u2019s not a bad life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>In Friday Flashback Wilma is looking through her photo album and remembering some very happy times.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18027,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[109,87,50,43,29,16,93],"class_list":["post-18005","post","type-post","status-publish","format-gallery","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-day-to-day-life","tag-alfie","tag-discover-dogs","tag-entlebucher","tag-switzerland","tag-trains","tag-travel","tag-wilma","post_format-post-format-gallery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18005","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18005"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18005\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18027"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18005"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18005"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18005"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
