...celebrations and reminiscences...

Flynn:
Well I can't believe I've lived in this mad house for exactly a year, it's been fun and mum says I can come out to play more when my hip/elbow scores come in:-) So far we've managed training and camping and I think I'm getting the hang of some bits more than others ha ha!!
I've stopped biting and chewing so much but mum says I've got to stop bonking Willow's head or she's taking me to see Mr Vet, I've been before when I ate something I shouldn't have and he's a very nice man (even if he did stick something sharp in me, not that I felt it really cos he had a nice biscuit for me, which is a good job as he stuck something somewhere else too and I'm blushing at the thought of it!) so can't quite see what the problem is with that...
She says her Dad died a year ago last Friday in the morning, she says he'd have just loved me as he loved all the dogs and used to talk to them all the time. He brought them 8oz of best roast beef every weekend and a beautiful marrow bone when he came for tea. My mate Willow (who is a distant cousin and really cool for an old 'un) used to tell him all about her week and he used to laugh at her antics while Beazer (now passed away) and Jette tried to get along the sofa and curl up next to him.
Mum says my proper posh name (Mardas Reminiscence) is very apt this time of year, both lovely and sad at the same time xx
