The book got right up to number 12400 in the book charts yesterday. It\u2019s gone down a bit since then, but I\u2019m hoping that maybe it can shoot up again. I know 12400 doesn\u2019t sound good but we started at lower than 70000 so it is when you look at the big picture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It made me start reminiscing about the lovely woods we used to walk in and I do wish we had something like that here.

I used to have my Mistress all to myself. I used to be young without these grey hairs and my brown bits were a rich bronzed brown. My fur used to be as soft as Ari\u2019s and everyone would coo over me and say how beautiful I was. By the end of it I was feeling quite sorry for myself. My Mistress told me not to be so ridiculous and to think of all the good things now. That\u2019s easy for her to say. I liked our quiet life. To be honest I\u2019ve been out of sorts since I\u2019ve been on these new antibiotics. I don\u2019t know whether they are working or not but they have certainly left me a bit irritable. I think I need a holiday. Maybe I\u2019ll suggest that to my Mistress. Perhaps just the two of us could have a few days away together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alfie Dog with a little help from Rosemary J Kind&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:alfie@alfiedog.me.uk\">alfie@alfiedog.me.uk<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book is available at Amazon UK \u2013<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B005NRFS2K\">https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B005NRFS2K<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>You just have to read the interview I did for my friend Alfie Entlebucher I am honoured to have had the opportunity and so happy <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/2012\/01\/07\/saturday-7th-january-2012-ive-been-interviewed\/\" title=\"Saturday 7th January 2012 &#8211; I&#8217;ve been interviewed!\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5175,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,7],"tags":[8],"class_list":["post-5813","post","type-post","status-publish","format-gallery","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-day-to-day-life","category-writing-2","tag-writing","post_format-post-format-gallery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5813","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\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5813"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5813\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11260,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5813\/revisions\/11260"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5813"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5813"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5813"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
