What on earth do they expect? There are all these apples falling off the trees and going begging. If we didn\u2019t eat them they would only have to clear them up, or let the wildlife eat them. Mum and Dad have different opinions there. Dad insists on clearing them away as he thinks it\u2019s bad for the trees for them to stay on the ground underneath. Duh! With me and Ari around, they weren\u2019t going to stay on the ground very long. Mum thinks we should leave them for the wildlife. She only then complains when the wildlife doesn\u2019t stop at the apples and digs up the vegetables as well. That means in my book we are helping both of them.<\/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\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/IMG_0940-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"26558\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/IMG_0940-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26558\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/IMG_0939-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"26557\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/IMG_0939-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26557\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/IMG_0937-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"26555\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/IMG_0937-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26555\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/IMG_0936-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"26554\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/IMG_0936-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26554\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Too hot<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019re spending our time staying in the shade as much as possible. Mum says she\u2019s even too hot to do any gardening except earlier in the day or in an evening. Sitting in the shade is not too bad, but we\u2019re better at that than Mum is. She seems to feel the need to do things. She will at least sit in the shade when our friends come to visit on Thursday. We\u2019re really looking forward to that, but Mum has said it will be too hot for us all to be running around so we need to be sensible. It\u2019s a shame the mice ate our paddling pool as it would have been good to get that out for them. Ari says he\u2019ll probably stay indoors in the shade to be on the safe side. None of us wants a repeat of his episode of the other week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">On the plus side<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On the plus side as our friends are bringing their humans Mum has added some extras to the shopping list for this week. She always buys things that will be safe if they fall into the wrong paws, so I\u2019m really looking forward to seeing what we can scrounge. I wonder if our friends will like unripe apples as much as we do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Wilma and Aristotle have been caught enjoying dessert.
