DIY? SOS!

Tuesday, 10pm

Thought for the Day -a biro and a hacksaw do not a straight line make

Pug Status - Impersonating Dusty Springfield - she just don't know what to do with herself

I'm no DIY expert - in fact, faced with having to shave a few millimetres off a piece of wood I turn into Mr. T. from The 'A' Team - "I ain't working with no plane, fool!" So it was to my own surprise that I managed to remove a little wood from the bottom of the living room door without it ending up like one of those doors normally found swinging those in bars in Western films....

Obi Pug Kenobi is unable to settle this evening, probably because she is still moulting like fury - a quick scratch and, five seconds later, we have a new fur rug on the floor. It's the dog-owners equivalent of the pine-needle carnage when you get finally get rid of the half-dead Christmas tree. I can only assume that, when they filmed the scenes with the pug in the film 'Men in Black', Tommy Lee Jones and WIll Smith kept their distance otherwise it would have been renamed 'Men In Beige'....

For those of you wondering whether yesterday's daily pug itinerary was embellished I can assure you that it is 100% fact - even down to the Princess Mints before bed. In fact, Daddy is in trouble with Princess Pug because he bought peppermint ones by mistake, which Princess doesn't really like - the plus side is that they do improve her breath somewhat, which can resemble Stilton kept in a football sock. For about fifteen years.
