I've got work to do.



Wilf was able to spend his Christmas morning in a Polish Lowland Sheepdogs natural habitat. The kitchen. He ventured out into the garden for a half hearted game of touch rugby around eleven but quickly scurried back inside. The smell of the roasting turkey simply too much to ignore. As he climbed the stairs to the terrace he turned and gave us a wistful look that seemed to say " Sorry guys. I've got work to do . You go and enjoy yourselves ".

Sadly for Wilf no one dropped the turkey or the Christmas pudding. However, mystery surrounds a plate of caviar and blinis that had foolishly been left unattended on the drawing room floor for all of five seconds. Had another gannet eaten them or was that a guilty smile on Wilfs face ? All but the victim gave him the benefit of the doubt.

'The font' got an oil free chip fryer as a gift. I thought this wasn't such a bad choice . It could have been worse. 'The font' seemed less convinced .

  4. We are sure there was no need for Wilf to wait for food to fall to the floor. With your gentle and kind heart, we are sure Wilf had a plate specially prepared for him and served to him with his loved ones at his side.
    And we'd go so far as to say that Santa was probably quite good to "the font".
    And to you?

  8. Caviar for Wilf! Excellent.

    It sounds like a good day was had by all. An oil-free chip fryer sounds like an oxymoron!

  13. Your Christmas post was beautiful...and Wilf's snowy face was precious! How responsible of Wilf to think of "work" before play on Christmas day...good job Wilfy!

    Best with the new oil free 'toy', blessings to you all...and big hugs to Wilfy!

  14. Appliances are maligned as presents. Jedi's pending adopter only wanted a good rug shampoo machine for Christmas - probably because Jed is very large and not house trained plus she needs to keep the "parsonage" up to snuff for visitors on top of working full time. Caviar - you are ready for the New Year, Wilf - and I am so glad to be able to anticipate your being with us then and now.
