AGM weekend. By Bessie

We had our AGM on the 18th October.    We booked the village hall next door for the afternoon so we could have the meeting all proper and professional and then we came back to our house for a party.   There were 12 houndies.   Seven of us cuddled up on Tom's bed while they was having their meeting and four of them went to the meeting with their humans and Tilly came later with her mum and dad.   We also had a foster dog for the night, Baby Daisy.  She came with Johanna and Super Stanley.

The meeting was good and people had some great ideas of things we could do to make the rescue even better.   The humans had chilli and baked potatoes for their tea and hotdogs for the mini humans.   Us houndies all took it in turns to go in the pantry for our dinner so there wasn't a big fight at tea time.

Johanna was the dog whisperer and she sat on our bed with houndies all over her feeding us snossijs and clipping toebones.    Lotty stole her potato though cos she is an evil dog.

Baby Daisy stayed the night, she snuggled with Sam and Louise on the air bed.  Of course Lotty had to get in there too cos she is so nosy.   The next morning we all had breakfast then Lisa and Paul came back and we all went for a walk to Tredegar Park.  Then Baby Daisy went home with them, they are going to foster her.

Ot oo affin at? By Sam

I chipped a tooth at the weekend, one of my front bottom teeth - that's the tooth at the front of my mouth not in my front bottom like in that weird film Teeth.   Anyway I went to the dentist yesterday and he gave me an anaesthetic so he could break off the broken bit, file it down and put a filling in.

For some god forsaken reason instead of going straight home I decided to pop into Tesco.   On the way up the travellator an old man asked if he could squeeze past.  I attempted to smile and say "Sure".  But on account of numb mouth what I actually did was grimace at him and growl. "Grrrr".  I'm sorry sir.  I would have apologised at the time but that was not possible.

Then I went to pick the minihumans up from school.  "You're early," they said, "Haven't you been to work?"

"Nmm," I said, "I een oo a enniss.   Ot oo affin at?  Oo I oun unny?"

"No, you sound fine," said Katie."

Oh ud, I urried I oun eerd" says I as they collapse in laughter.   Pigs.
