MEMORIES.

Morris : I haven't had one accident this past 14 days. I am very happy but upset the pigs ears have disappeared. We get other stuff though. Been away to New Abbey again. It's the time of year Pam goes to visit her ancestors. We love it because we get to run about and even better....we get to go to the beach. We have to be very well behaved in the graveyard, of course.

Southerness is one of Ewen's happy places. They have a golf course there he loves. We have a run on the beach and then a walk on the course. Mabel tried to get to me but I just ignored her and went for a paddle.

We also went to visit Magnus's axe head at Wooplaw wood. I REALLY don't like it there. Brings back bad memories.

Mabel : What a woose. New Abbey and Southerness were brilliant. I found the trip to the woodland hysterical. It's three years since someone tried to abduct Morris. There we were and you could see he was scared. Kept glued to Ewen's leg. Kept looking around. Was twitchy at every noise. I told him to grow a pair (actually he did but then they disappeared). He was just a wee lad then, easy to pick up and carry away. He's 44Kg now and would probably wriggle a bit more!!! I did try to cheer him up but he was just happy to get home, cuddle into his furry and try to chew Ewen's hat. He then had to wear it. They're clearing a lot of the woodland after Storm Arwen. One of the big vehicles must have dunted Magnus's axehead. Ewen got it all fixed up and back in place. Put on a Christmas wreath.
