Just where am I ?

Now every morning me and the Guv go out onto the Welsh hills for our early morning walk. However I am now very confused, why are these called Scottish thistles if they grow in Wales ?

If you are one of my regular readers you will know my blogs have been rather spasmodic over the recent weeks.  Well this is because over here in the UK I can only get limited access to my computer. This is because the Guv and the Misses keep hogging the laptop !

However currently they have gone out and left me alone, so I am making the most of it, getting comfy on their bed (don't tell though!) and catching up on the news.

Just one more week in the UK and I'm off on a grand tour of mainland Europe and back to my homeland, Greece.

Well it looks like summer has actually arrived in Wales at last !  The Guv put away his raincoat and actually got his T-shirts out, and me...well being a fair maiden I thought I had better protect my delicate blond hair with a hat......

I have had quite a lot of adventures over the last few days being taken out in the tin box on wheels with a dogs name, meeting several friends of the Guvs & the Misses and being allowed into their homes for a good sniff about. 

However I think tomorrow I'm in for it!  I hear we are going to the dog doctors.......

Down Rover.....

Last Friday I heard my people saying they were off out for dinner with quite a lot of friends in Hereford and the "Misses" said she was taking Rover!  Now I thought how dare they take another dog instead of me......but I was got ready to go as well, and no sign of any other canines anywhere.  Then all was made clear "Rover" was another of the Guv's tin boxes on wheels.  Stupid name any way............

Mountain dog ?

Some of you will know that in Greece canines like me are used as hunting dogs, and I thought when the Guv bought me my "barbour" that matched his we would be going off hunting.  WRONG, this mountain walk thing we go on very morning seems to have made him into a "mountain-man!" So much so he sold the blue tin box on wheels and bought this one.  He told the "Misses" that it was better as it was a four wheel drive, but he did not fool me, I knew the other had four wheels also. Had to keep watch on those pesky woollen bags with legs though, they keep creeping up on me!  

I got "fitted up" !

Panic, panic did I panic....YES.  I heard my people say something about me and "barbers". Now when I go out on my morning walk across the downs I can see some of the woollen sacks on four legs have been to the barbers and lost their nice warm coats. Its no wonder with the weather here they wander about shouting "brrrr...brrrr, as well as barr...barr. 

However I think I misunderstood, (odd this English language) as I did not get my coat shorn but we ended up going to the doggy shop and I got a nice warm, waterproof BARBOUR.

Sun, sea and sand.....well one out of three anyway!

The other morning I heard my people say we were going to the seaside at a place called Aberystwyth about an hours drive in the tin box from where I now live in Wales. I have come to the decision there is one very major difference in the British seaside and the Greek seaside, the British seaside does not have SUN!

However while we were there I met lots of other canines sitting outside a cafe on the promenade. I heard the Guv say one was called Jack Russell I had to sort him out as he tried to bite me.......he did not try a second time I can tell you!
