Magnus 14th January

Been a very busy week.  I had my MOT on Tuesday.  Apparently I am a very healthy, old chap with a good heart and a touch of arthritis in my spine, which is why my back hips are a tad stiff.  They've given me some pills and they are wonderful.  I feel properly bouncy again and going to bed is a joy.  Nothing hurts.  Pam says that's why I like it cold and dry.  My joints feel better.  Rain is a nightmare.  We had the French guy to stay the other day.  He really is very laid back.  Didn't interfere with my patch at all.  Just came in, hit the couch and snoozed with Mirren and I.  When we went for a walk he did everything Ewen said.  Which proves my point.  All dogs speak Dog.  Ewen speaks Dog.  Everyone understands.

Mirren 14th January. 

I have had the BESTEST week.  I was checked over by Colin at the vets.  Haven't seen him in ages.  Still think he's wonderful even though he said I was a bit chubby but wearing well for my age considering what I've been through???? ( think he means my cruciate problems)  It was so lovely to see him again.  Then we had Luther to stay.  What can I say.  Mon ami francais avec les orielles magnifique.  He lay on the couch and I lay in my bed and just looked at him.  Then we went for a walk with Ewen and we had our pictures taken all together.

Ewen took one of Luther outside the castle, or chateau.  He looked so at home.  I think he's just perfect at modelling.  Doesn't humph about like Magnus does.  Doesn't he photograph well!  Tres Chic.
