ANOTHER WEEK?

Morris: Well, we were back with Katie on Thursday. I am in perfect working order, which is more than can be said for my sister. Doing a bit of the old Diva thing. Sore paw. This means we aren't running about up the hill. It's her own fault because she runs with such abandon. She really should be more careful. I know it's a while now since I did my hip but I'm still wary of it. Hydro bores her but boy does she love Katie's massages. She gets very glum when she has to do the walking in water bit. Just curls up when she's done. Pam was with us this time so we had downies and towels galore. Mabel used most of them.

Mabel: I can't help it if I pull a muscle in my leg. I am just such an athlete. And yes, I am not fond of water but Katie's massages just make me want to fall asleep. Which I do. Which I did. All curled up and cosy. Morris is forgetting we have been sociable this week. We've been out for coffee and behaved really well. We've also been chatting to the sheep and lambs. We are not allowed near them but they keep running up to us and baaaaing, particularly if we are wearing our yelloe coats. I don't know, maybe they think we are really fashionable and are just verbally applauding us. We aren't allowed to even look at them. Pam and Ewen are very strict and careful around sheep, particularly at lambing time. Some people get us dogs a bad name by being stupid around farm animals. On the other hand we have two very fat bullying pigeons which are chasing all the wee sparrows away. Not happy. But still not allowed to chase them.!!
