In criminal law in this country if you can\u2019t prove who committed the crime then you can\u2019t find them guilty. I\u2019m distressed to find this only applies to humans. Mum has no idea which of us sat on the cotton lavender and broke one of the stems. It could have been any of us. Now, by my reckoning that must mean she can\u2019t actually punish any of us. How is it fair that all of us have been docked a biscuit? I suppose if I\u2019d been feeling nice, I\u2019d have held my paw up and admitted my crime. At least then the other two could still have a biscuit. I\u2019m not nice \u2013 well, not like that anyway. If I\u2019d have thought they would then have shared their biscuits with me it might have been a different matter, but the chances of that were slim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I only sat there because Mum was working nearby and I wanted to be close to her. Of course I didn\u2019t meant to actually sit on the plant, but I can be heavy pawed sometimes and just didn\u2019t realise. I would like to stress at this point that I was not the one who ploughed into one of the sunflowers \u2013 at least I don\u2019t think I was. Nor was I the one who fell over on the tray of seedlings because I\u2019m old and have difficulty cornering \u2013 that was Shadow! I may however have been the one barking at our neighbour when he was trying to get rid of some brambles by the fence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On a funnier note as far as we are concerned. Mum currently is wearing two knee braces, one on each knee. They fasten with Velcro. It is now completely possible for her to accidentally Velcro her legs together and not be able to move. It happened earlier and was the cause of much merriment as well as telling us to get out of the way while she sorted the problem out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
