MERRY CHRISTMAS

Morris: It's been a brilliant few days. I know we had our first Christmas last year but we really got into it more this year although Pam says we are both rubbish at opening presents. We got lots of eatable goodies and a couple of nice toy bones. I manage to destroy one quite quickly. I'll save the other one for later. We've also been out for some excellent walks. All four of us. We chased toys and found new smells and paths. All very adventurous. We've also been doing a lot of snoozing. Again, all four of us. Great pack time.

Mabel : I've had a really jolly time. We had a bit of a scare on Christmas Eve, when our new cousin, Aggie, a rescue from Ukraine, decided to eat Santa's mincemeat pies. She's just little, not like us, so she had a wee visit to the vet. Considering all the stuff Morris has managed to annihilate I'm surprised he's not been to the vet more. On that subject, he managed to stretch to the back of the kitchen work top and ate ALL of our Boxing Day ham. Pam and Ewen weren't happy but there wasn't a lot they could do really. I stayed out of trouble and just looked festive in my Santa hat.
