Good things come to those who wait. By Bessie

Last night it rained.  Lots.   Our village is flooded from next doors house onwards.  Nobody down that end can get in or out.  We are OK but our well is almost full and the field behind is flooded.   Mummy got up early and went to Tesco to stock up in case we get flooded in.   It's still not stopped raining but the flood hasn't got any higher yet.

Mummy and Bryn ripped all the wallpaper off in the hall.  Now they have to redecorate cos it looks awful.  Although Mummy says she likes it, cos she can visualise what the hall will look like when it's finished now that wallpaper is gone.

We sold the hot tub.  I think we might have sold it too cheap cos we only put it on ebay on Saturday night.  Yesterday we had four messages asking for a buy it now price so we gave them all the same price.   Three of them asked if they could come and get it, one offered £200 less.  We let the first person have it cos that is the politest way to do things so him come down last night with his wife and daughter and paid 20% and is coming back tonight with five big strong friends to take it away.   We are going to buy an oak table and six chairs to go in the dining room and two three seater settees for the lounge with the money.  We also put the sauna and the old fridge on ebay, they haven't sold yet.  But they only just gone on.

Hmm what else to tell you?   Katie is watching video blogs on youtube.  I realise now I'm supposed to start every blog with HI GUYS!  Sorry I have been so remiss.  I didn't know this til now.  That's why I've only got 19 followers and Phil and Dan have got two million.

Uncle MrJeff is making us a website for our new rescue.  We can't wait for it to be finished.  We did a rescue on Saturday.  It turned out to be an incredible story.  Me explain...

So we seen this dog on preloved in Merseyside for £60 on Friday so Mummy emailed the seller.   We arranged to pick her up on Saturday.  Miss Lesley was going to collect her from the seller and Miss Susan going to foster her until we find a home (we got someone very special in mind but more on that later).

Anyway Miss Lesley got to the home handed the money over and was told that the doggy is in season.  Uh-oh.  Not that it would have stopped us taking her but it makes things difficult.  We can't send her to new home until she is spayed unless we are sure the new owners will get it done.  We checked with Miss Susan she was still OK to foster but her say yes that is fine, no problems with her own dogs.

Miss Lesley says doggy is lovely and sweet and very well behaved but shy and nervous.  Miss Susan went to pick doggy up and took her home.  Only when she got her back and had a good look at her papers does it become apparent there is more to this doggy than meets the eye.  Turns out, after a little detective work, this is only another doggy of a different name (that funnily enough when called she responds to much better than the name the seller gave her) that we saw advertised free to a good home on another site three weeks ago.  We were all really upset at the time cos we had emailed the seller and got no response and were worried about where she had ended up.  Anyway alls well that ends well and we got the doggy that we wanted in the first place.  This only makes us even more determined to make sure she ends up in the perfect home (who I already know who it is but they just need to be convinced that they are perfect).
