Well, that's Christmas over for another year. I received lots of lovely gifts, which I am sure I totally deserved. Lovely Christmas food, duck a l'orange biscuits, cheese biscuits, things with pate and a scarf, in a beautiful pink, with Total Diva on it. Someone knows me so well. The day was perfect. Walk with Ewen in the morning, then peace and quiet while Pam and Ewen did something up the hill with friends. I'm glad I didn't go because all the boys were there, Murphy, Luther and Orry. I would have caused a fight and they are so lively. I am much more sedate and elegant in my movements. I'm sure they ran about a lot, chasing sticks and trying to see who was top dog. I was much happier, lying stretched out, on my cosy bed. After they came back and tidied themselves up we opened presents. Pam helped me. I really am a lucky girl.

Then Christmas dinner.........any dog's dream. Yumyum. Sleep. Boxing day was quiet. Apparently they are not allowed visitors because of this virus thing. Yesterday it snowed and we went for a really long walk right round the golf course. I haven't licked snow in ages. It's very refreshing. I had to remind Pam to give me nibbles, the whole way round, by sticking my nose up her bottom whenever I felt peckish. I felt like a wolf, out there in the snow and cold.

I've tried this on Ewen but it doesn't seem to work so well on him. Very chilled afternoon with them having a Bond binge???? Whatever that is?

Well, that's the schools closed for Christmas and I got Pam back for walks. I do like it when she can come too because I always get fed more and she stops and gives me big hugs.

It's been wet and can be bit windy so I like to get a good brushing so my hair ripples in the breeze. An added benefit is I can see better!

Anyway, we had a lovely walk and I didn't want to go back in the van. Pam says not to worry. We are all going back into lockdown and the schools will be shut longer. She might have a week working from home. Means better walks, more cuddles and a variety of tasty treats.

Look at that!

One public moan and I get Christmas jumper pictures. Also saw my good friend Louis this morning. Louis has not been well. His heart did something funny and he wasn't on the golf course for a few weeks. Delighted to see him again this morning. I even ran!.

This is just ridiculous. Neither of them can get themselves organised to take a picture of me. We have had snow. We have had lots of rain. Now it's quite pleasant. They've put up the Christmas tree and I know I have parcels under it. I was most impressed with my friend Mr Murphy today. He popped in for a while. He managed to find the toy box behind some lit up Christmas parcel thingys. He also managed to dig out his own present from under the tree. Either he can read and checked out the label or he sniffed it out. He was very good though and didn't unwrap it. He's saving it for Santa. It's his favourites. I'm not saying on here what it is, just incase he reads the blog. I don't want to spoil the surprise. Met a lovely young chap the other morning. I think his name is Hamish. He's a Golden Retriever. Very nice. Gave me a good sniffing. Good to know I can still attract good looking chaps.
