Magnus 22nd February

Been off line for a bit.  I have discovered I am lactose intolerant.  I am not allowed any cheese.  EVER.  If I have food with any lactose in it now, I am very sick.  And I fart.  And my tummy rumbles.  Not very happy about this but in the scheme of things, I suppose I have to get on with it.  Pam says my stomach must have been affected when I was ill, last year.  Moving on.....better weather, lighter mornings and evenings.  Longer walks with Ewen.  What more could a guy want.


Mirren 22nd February

I suffer because of that guy.  If he can't eat something, I get put on similar rations.  I'm sure I might get a bit of cheese slipped every now and again but I see the dream of ice cream going out the window!  Oh well, I suppose it's better for my waistline.  These long walks are great but I don't like it if it's muddy.  I can't have my paws getting dirty.  And goodness knows what the wet does to my claws.  Pam is trying to get my coat in shape.  Bless her, it'll take a while to get my dreadlocks sorted out.  On that note, I see her approaching with a brush!!! I'm off.

Magnus 1st February

Ewen is in Paris with some friends.  Fortunately, Pam let me Facetime him last night.  I've been okay.  Not been sick worrying about him.  Got to sleep on the bed last night.  Blowing a gale today but at least the snow has gone again.  Went a walk with Lexi and Murphy this morning.  That young chap certainly has a bounce in his step.  Boing, boing, boing everywhere.  I've forgotten what it is to be young and have that much energy.

Mirren 1st February

I was told that the shooting should have stopped.  Was most upset, on our walk, to hear bangs.  Pam assured me that it was builders dropping things at our local garage.  What a racket.  Got very scared and tried to run home. Murphy was very reassuring and tried to give me wee kisses to say it was alright.  And then they expected me to cross a stream?  Really?  I had no intention of getting my paws wet.  Then Pam fell over because she tried to get back to me and got her foot caught in the wire.  And! My hair is a mess because the wind is so bad.  Not been a great morning really.  Oh! Ewen is in Paris!


Magnus 24th January

The snow has gone.  It's been bucketing overnight.  I didn't want to go out in this weather.  Mirren was worse.  But, it's Ewen's birthday.  He's got his bus pass.  Bit worried about that  They might start getting the bus and leaving us at home.  I'm sure they won't but just to make sure Mirren and I bought Ewen some lovely presents with our Christmas money! On top of that, tomorrow is Burn's night.  I like haggis.  Pam has a gluten free one  Mmmmmmmmmm.

Mirren 24th January

I really don't want to go out if it's too cold or wet.  I like being warm in my bed.  All wrapped up.  Who really wants to go out when it's raining?  Magnus is panicking about the bus thing. I don't know why.  Pam and Ewen would never leave us behind.  They might go away for three or four hours but never more than that.  They know how hungry I get!  The presents we bought Ewen are really nice and useful.  We hope he likes them.  And yes, the whole haggis thing appeals to me too.  Doesn't need to be gluten free.  I'll eat anything................within reason.
