Back on the leash....

Thursday, 9pm

Thought for the Day - The mobile phone will only ring whilst you're driving if it's in your right-hand trouser pocket

Pug Status - Sitting by the bath, asleep, waiting for her nice clean Mummy to emerge

I've managed to get the drive to and from work off pat now - he's very helpful is Pat, God knows what I would have done without him. The biggest trial is trying to leave for home as near to 5pm as possible, as it seems that even if I leave a minute later I either end up behind frozen food lorries heading back to Warsaw or doddery old Allegros with drivers that stop without warning in order to point at bales of hay in nearby fields....

Obi Pug Kenobi is just about used to the new routine. After I get up I have to prise her away, still half asleep, from her Mummy, carry her downstairs into the garden for her early morning purge and then carry her back upstairs to where I had so cruelly snatched her. It so traumatises poor Princess that she has to go straight back to sleep to recover, for a least a couple of hours....

She's still not quite used to having an evening walk in the dark instead of the sojourns in the afternoon that we used to enjoy. Always very protective of her Daddy she would wuff at any passing dog, cat or other furry creature she passed, but perhaps her eyes have yet to adjust to the night-time - she spent a good few minutes last night growling at what turned out to be a flattened lager can....

Must go - she is bouncing by the front door, wuffing at her harness and lead - it's time for Princess to take me out for my walk....
