Aristotle is being an annoying little squirt and I have had enough. He seems to have boundless energy at the moment and with the weather not being so good he can\u2019t burn it off easily. It isn\u2019t helped by Shadow being so playful at the moment. She\u2019s been threatening to start her season for weeks, but there is still no sign. I spent yesterday being a grumpy old man and got severely told off for the privilege. When I get grumpy I tend to bark and I have a very loud bark, which isn\u2019t appreciated when my Mistress is not feeling all that well. What would you do when a 27kg puppy launched itself at you from the settee as you were walking past sedately? I know he\u2019s an adolescent and will grow out of it, but for my liking that can\u2019t come soon enough!<\/p>\n
The weather forecast is not good. It is now officially spring. It should not be planning to snow anymore! Now is the time for sunshine and daffodils shaking their pretty little heads. Instead of which the crocuses haven\u2019t bothered to open their little heads and there is no sign of the daffodils. The snowdrops are still out but they are a WINTER flower and it\u2019s now winter. Mind you, last weekend James saw a man digging all the snowdrops up that were along the footpath and putting them in the boot of his car. They\u2019ll now be on sale somewhere, no questions asked. My Mistress said it was a shame James didn\u2019t take down the number plate so we could have reported it to the police. We\u2019d been enjoying those flowers when we were out and about, we didn\u2019t want them taken away. It just goes to show you that some people will take anything that isn\u2019t locked down!<\/p>\n
