Toymaker

Today, it was no dogs allowed, as Puppy and Piglet took their plastic milk bottle tops to the toymaker...

The toymaker pointed out all the different little plastic soldiers and figures and puppy and piglet chose what they wanted.

Then the toymaker poured the plastic into the mould , counted to 10,
and took it out of the mould.
Then he took the little figure to his workshop to file it down.

Tada! Tom Payne, the revolutionary.
And all made out of milk bottle tops.

Catching Up

It has been such a busy Easter, we have not had time to blog. Imagine! Life getting in the way of blogging! The CHEEK!

Firstly, we went of a walk with Echo. He is pushing 40kg now but in this picture he was in the low 30s). That is about 4 stone for those on imperial and 56lb for our American friends :)


Then we went down to stay with TJam's parents, Brazil and - hmmm, need to think of a spy name for Boy Wonder. ah, that can be his spy name.


It had been raining so much round there that our usual path was a stream. I loved it but the Boy Wonder had to go through the brambles to stay dry.

Next we met up with TJam's old friend who we will call Astra. She brought her dog, Dylan, and we had a grand old time, walking in the woods. The humans chatted and chatted, catching up on 20 years, so us dogs could just get on with being dogs. Bliss.


Then we met up with Piglet and Puppy (who you may remember from last year when we went looking for Winnie the Poo). They have grown up a lot and are a lot of fun to play with. They are pretty good tree climbers too.

When all that walking and socialising was done, and a bit more walking and some other socialising, and the humans had eaten a Chinese takeaway and we had had some of the leftovers (yum yum yum), Fliptop washed our van for us, and we came home. Thank you Fliptop!


What a couple of weeks we have had!

Guinea Pigs

Today, TJam went to visit Piglet and Puppy (and she left us dogs at home. You will see why in a minute...)

Yes, TJam has been cuddling some other animals too. Tastey little animals that are not for dogs!

Here, TJam cuddled Caramel, while Piglet wrestled with Bernard, who was trying to make a quick getaway towards the vegetable plate!

TJam went to Piglet's school and saw her Victorian project and Storms and Shipwrecks. Puppy went on his scooter, but he went too fast down the hill and had to use his bottom for a brake!

TJam had a lovely day.
