Blossoms .
London sunny and warm . More like Spain that Britain . People spilling out onto the streets, pavement cafes full , office workers in shirt sleeves. Angus stops off to look at the souvenirs for the Queens Jubilee celebrations . Many of the momentos produced for the Royal Wedding were dire . Barely marketable tat. This time round they're much better. Tasteful and fun .
Home to be greeted by a very shaggy Wilf. Arthritis rules out the wild welcome home dance but the warmth and intensity of the greeting are as strong as ever . That little stump wagging at twenty to the dozen .Soon , the family fellow settles down, head on my foot, and is fast asleep . Much happy yawning and swallowing . Old dog wisdom . "Quit being sad. Hear blessings dropping their blossoms around you ".

It was a lovely day here yesterday, but I am glad for Wilf that it was just a brief visit. Flock all present and accounted for, once more, just the way he likes it. I hope you all have a lovely day in the fresh air and spring sun.

Not just London but even Aberdeen has been basking in unfamilar sunshine these last few days.
ReplyDeleteBut tell us Angus, what did you buy? The tea pot? Or a Jubilee dog bowl for Wilfy?
Bertie - Sometimes it is best to leave the purchasing to others .
DeleteYes, window shopping is enjoyable, and no regrets afterwards. Wilf looking very distinguished in his second photo.
ReplyDeleteSHE always tries to find the worst souvenir whenever SHE travels.....not to buy.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful greeting when you get home.
XXXOOO Daisy, Bella & roxy
love Wilfs quotes.....
ReplyDeletexoxo
Happy days - flock reunited. Love Susanne, Daisy, Foxie and Kiri
ReplyDeleteLove the quote...really needed to hear that today!
ReplyDeleteIs that dragons on the plate? I've never seen anything quite like that! I'm glad you had a good trip for once! Did the warm weather mean you also made it through the air terminal without facing the wand of doom?
ReplyDeleteI love how content the dogs always are after we all come home!
Welsh Dragon, English Lion, Scottish Unicorn . All updated stylised medieval beasts from the coat of arms .
DeleteAnd a griffin and a blue greyhound on the teapot . Rather fitting for you ?
Deletewow! you're back soon and always a happy reunion!
ReplyDeletei too love his quote this morning.
he's the wisest tiny bear in the whole world.
always a treat to see what you don't buy.
love the london pictures too.
my favorite though... the wee guy in the next to last one.
love and a tousle wilfee,

"Much happy yawning & swallowing".. Sweet welcome!! Great pictures! (& weather). sigh. Dreaming of dry pavement.
ReplyDeleteWait now, I think you should have purchased the tea pot, some matching cups and saucers, and the big dish to serve the biscuits in. Not too badly designed (except for that garish orange creature) and think just how much mileage you would get out of a grand set like this. He who hesitates . . .
ReplyDeleteJo, Stella and Zkhat, who send regards to Sir Wilfee
LOVE Homecomings to tailwagging furry creatures...It's like the ooo-rah troops cheering the victorious General returning from War...every single time. :-) No finer red-carpet-welcome in the universe... :-) Wilf is happy.
ReplyDeleteThe spacing of the figures on that place would drive me crazy! I think I need to get out more! :)
ReplyDeleteFortnums?
ReplyDeleteI loved that teapot and the plate as well! I know Wilf rests more easily when you are home! Happy weekend to you all.
