Another BIG Walk..

Dad arranged for us to go on a big walk with some of his new friends (he got a new job and so has some new friends to introduce me to).  They were all doing this BIG walk for a charity, we couldn't do all of the walk coz Dad has got 'cronky old toes' that don't go more than 10 miles!  So we decided that we would do some of it. It was over three very big hills and we did the first one.
Anyways, we got to the meeting place and there were loads of people....Someone important was talking to the masses, so I tried to get a good view...

I was having no luck, so I just decided to stand about and look like I knew what was going on (fink this is what Dad does at work!!).

see me looking like I am understanding what is going on!

Here is Dad looking 'corporate'!

After we had finished our bit of the BIG walk I got some nice 'noms' and Dad got a cuppa!

Cheers Dad!  Fanx for a nice day to all the nice peoples at Dad's work!

Important footnote:  My Aunty Jilly Willy Woo and Uncle Matty also did the same BIG Walk but on a different day, they raised some money for Help for Heroes - if you want to donate to this brilliant cause then you still can http://www.justgiving.com/matthew-hirst/  FANX !

New friend and old...

Well, it's been a bit since I managed to blog - it's my typists fault, she has been so busy.  Mind you, in between being busy we've been on some nice little holidays.

So, first of all it was Easter and we did go to a new caravan site called Conifer Lake.  They have a fishing lake (with conifers round it!), I did meet a nice new friend called Bryn.  Bryn is a boxer like my cousin April only he is massively much bigger and 

Handsome Bryn

he is brown.  I fink you will agree he is very handsome!  We made friends and went for walks and a nice swim.  The weather was very, very hot.

after a swim..

Some other things that changed... my Uncle Ian went to overseas for a whole month and so Promise went to live with my Grandma.  She liked it so much that she's going to live with Grandma for ever!  She came to stay here for a few days to help out the typist when she was sooo busy and had to go to 'that London'.  It's cool having a sleep over and so I gave her and Grandma lots of licks.

Promise being cosy at my house!

You might also notice that since my last blog post I have had my summer hair style and I no longer look like an exploded cushion! 

I am a mountaineer!

Am finking...

On Saturday I did wonder why Mum only took me round the 'small block' for our morning walk, I finks to myself... "mmm is Saturday, we always go down the fields with Dad on a Saturday, what is going on?".  Well, then I noticed that the rucksacks were out and the boots, and the flask of coffee and the little special bag with my 'noms' in it.... Somefink is happening here.
We went in the car for a really long way, then when we got there we just went to a cafe and sat outside, I am finking again "mmm, is not very exciting sitting here by this cafe..."
Then I sees another car, in it was my Aunty Jilly Willy Woo, Uncle Matty, Cousin April the dog and my Grandma Keighley!!!!!  I am now finking "Wow, all them people have come too!".

So, we gets giddy for a bit and I woofed and did some running about and licks and stuff, then we sets off for a WALK!  Yay, mmmm...... not too far, just over a railway line then stopped! am finking "mmm wots goin on here again...?" Then a TRAIN came and we all got on, it was really exciting... then we all got off again, and then the WALK began!

Setting off for a big WALK!

We did walk for ages and up a really, really big hill called Ingleborough.  It is one of the three peaks of Yorkshire.  My Aunty Jilly Willy Woo and Uncle Matty are going to walk all three of them in one go in May.. they are doing it for charity to get lots of moneys for the Hero chaps... Help for Heroes.  I fink that they are brilliant for walking them all in one go coz it's a really, really, really long way and they will be very tired for certain.

Uncle Sammy has no pants on!

Anyways, back to our walk.... we were almost at the top and guess who we bumps into?  Uncle Sammy, he had been too late for the train and so he decided that coz he is the young boy super fit dude that he would run up the hill and meet us on top!  My Mum couldn't believe it coz it's a really long way and very big hill - he is funny coz he didn't have any trousers on, just shorts and it was cold!  Even I put on my coat and I hates wearing it!

it was cold enough for me to wear my coat!

Mum doing a special 'on the top of the hill' dance!

It was a brilliant day, everyone enjoyed it and we all had some nice 'noms' to keep us going, the hoomans got some special noms from Grandma Keighley, Mum says fanx for them!

I am SEVEN!

Today it is my birfffday and I am seven.. Mum says she can't believe it!  So, I got a card from my cousin April, I opened it myself (of course) - you can see how good I am at opening cards in the picture - and I got a card off Mum and Dad.  April also sent me some rilly nice noms (wot I am eating out of my bowl in the picture) - fanx April am sending you lots of licks in return.

Mum and Dad didn't buy me a pressy, instead they let me have some real roast chicken which was a treat coz I don't get human food every day.  We went for a nice walk this morning and we met the lovely girls - they are all black labs and they live with their Dad, their names are (in age order); Fern, Inca, Teal and Pippa... Teal and Pippa are babies and they are about 5 months old.  Inca always jumps up and kisses Mum on the chin, Fern is old and she's graceful and the puppies are wanting to play with me all the time so I have to run about so they don't hassle me.

Later on this afternoon after I had done a lot of resting I had a walk with just Mum (coz Dad was doing some resting with some zzzzz's on the sofa!), I chased a rabbit but it got away under some bushes.  It was rainy so we walked really quickly and got home so we could get warm and dry.... and I could have some more noms!

Any ways it was nice to have a birffday on a Sunday, oh and Happy Birffday for yesterday for my Dad!!  (he wasn't seven)...
