Cato:
See - they still aren't here. the grass has grown. the fence is down. it is very worrying
This is Bella. She is very pretty. And very young. And I liked her, but she wouldn't stay still long enough for a proper sniff.
And the water is back! It went away and got very low when it was hothothot, but now it is back again. Tara trampled about on the edge. Of course. And tried to push me in. Of course.
Dad said it might be muddy! So we look
Cato: So Mum was a naughty Mum last week. She went to this work thing. Training. But without the training treats, apparently. And they lent her a set of headphones, and she (Bad Mum) forgot to return them at the end of the day. So she had to take them back, and we went with her!
It was fun! We got to go in the car, and walk into the office place, and go through the security card thing, and climb stairs, and surprise everyone. Tara got really over excited and tried to beat me up in f
Tara:
We went out to do the Referendummy Votey Thing, and we had to sit outside while first Mum then Dad went and DID IT.
That woz boring.
And then we went to the Stinky Coffee Place where they don't serve dog biscuits. But there aren't any pictures cos Mum forgot her phone AND her camera! Bad Mum! Hahahaha!
But we got a treat each for sitting quietly under the table. And when there were no more treats I beat Cato up, until Mum was a meanie and shortened the leads.

Cato:
Mum didn't take us out to breakfast today with Auntie Jane!!! We were left at home!!! We woz very miserable, and Tara cried at the door.
Mum says it was cos she thought it was going to rain, and she wanted to go to a weird indoor breakfast place that we have never been to before, that doesn't let dogs in. But that is terrible. It can't be a nice place if it doesn't let dogs in, can it?
Then they came and picked us up, smelling of bacon and sausages and stuff, and we all
Tara:
It was Dad's Birthday ages ago, but he wanted to go to this pub for his Special Birthday Lunch. So we did. We had to wait til today on account of his Work Stuff and Mum's Work Stuff. It is very complicated.
Anyway, this is me saying Happy Birthday to Dad in the pub. Mum says it is a bit out of focus, and she is sorry. But the other pic was worser.
And this is our new car in the pub carpark. The red one.
Mum went all silly and sad when she saw the gold
Cato:
Hi Aunties.
On Saturday we slept. Cos we were tired after our two looooooonnnnnnnnggggg treks with AuntieKimDogsitter.
And on Sunday it rainedandrainedandrained. So I did more sleeping. And Tara did a lot of sleeping and then just burst with BOUNCE. But Mum protected me from the worst of it, cos I was on her lap.
Cato: Mum and Dad are going out later, so we had our walk first.
This is First Sniff
And then I had to run to catch up, cos I was sniffifying and they all walked off and left me.
See how sunny the Ent Moot was? Mum says it is something complicated about the low sun at this time of year, and how all the rest of the year the tree trunks and my widdle spots are in the shade. Anyway, I tried to celebrate it with a good widdle circuit, but I don't think I had enough to dr
Cato:
Hello Aunties! We have missed you! We have been off having adventures and stuff, and not writing about them. But Mum says that now we can do blogging again.
I am glad about that.
It has been a bit boring without you.
I sleep a lot when I am bored. I am on Mum's lap. It is the only place I can sleep safely nowadays? Everywhere else, Jasmine might get me.
And - most importantly, my tail is still gorgeous.
The
Mum:
We didn't walk today. I was a bit achy (for no good reason), so we spent the day in the house and on the sofa. Much snuggling, and brushing and playing with toys.
As always, when we do this, they are both absolutely delighted with their chillaxed day, right up until the point (usually around 8pm) when Tara's energy reaches a critical pressure, and the steam HAS to be let out somehow. This may involve barking in the garden, trying to put Cato off my lap by his tail, skittering t
Tara:
Hello Aunties!!!
We went out with Dad's Mam for lunch. Dad chose it special, cos he knew we could sit under table if we were veryveryvery good. And we were! Sort of.
I may have wanted some of the special roast beef that Dad had, but mean old Mum said no. Not til we were outside in the garden of the hotel-pub-place.
They had a nice garden with a pond
and bluebell stuff
It was very nice. All sunny and hot and sweltery. I beat Cato up lots an
Cato:
Ooooh we had a FAB walk today. First it was Auntie Jane and sausages! Yay! And then it was Foxy Park! Yayay!!!
But I did hear Mum and Autnie making strange noises about something called Gluten Free, and how there is Gluten in sausages, and how Gluten makes Thyroid stuff worse, and how my tummy should be Gluten Free. It is a bit worrying.
Anyway, here is our lovely walk:
This is me and Tara meeting Becky's Mum. Becky is the spaniel. She was even more timid and sil
