I was reading something the other day which said that the number of writers who drink is no coincidence and it might actually make them better writers. I can see it might make them less inhibited writers but I can\u2019t see it would do much for the spelling. This is clearly my Mistress\u2019s problem, she doesn\u2019t really drink alcohol. Oh there is some rum in the marmalade oat cakes she\u2019s made but most of it will have evaporated at two hundred degrees centigrade in the oven. I\u2019m going to suggest to her that she might want to put the bottle of rum on the desk and take a swig from it once in a while as she\u2019s working. I don\u2019t suppose for a minute she\u2019ll go along with the plan, but it\u2019s got to be worth a try.<\/p>\n<p>Shadow and I have become very close. It\u2019s all right until we are taken out for a walk together and one of our humans wants to take one of us a different way. We refuse to go without each other. We whine and make it clear we\u2019re not happy. Sometimes there can be a good reason for the separation but I think with planning our humans could stop it having to happen. OK so Shadow needs training and I sometimes put her off by pulling funny faces and doing funny walks to get her to fall about laughing, but it\u2019s only natural to keep her amused, she\u2019s a puppy. You pull faces at small children, well if you don\u2019t my Master does. To be fair my Mistress sometime finds him an embarrassment when he\u2019s doing it, but I\u2019m just following his lead.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>I think I\u2019ve found out where my Mistress is going wrong.
