Its got colder.....

Well this mornings walk was just a bit chilly and a light frost over all the fields. Now the Missus feels the cold far more than I do so the Guv lit the first fire of the winter in the wood burner, I might just take advantage though and enjoy the warmth.

It's all mine....

One good thing about this time of year is that the human tourists tend to stay away and even the local humans become sparse around the river walks & play areas.  That leaves it free for ME!   Oh yes and as you can see I have my eyes shut, that means I can't see that sign in the background...

A real twit.....

Well I think the Guv got this one wrong!  He said by putting a pretend owl in the car kennel it would stop other birds coming in and causing problems....I think they now come in for a tweet.

I also give thanks.......

My photo the other day showed a bare and empty field,

I walked that field today and thought of men who did not yield

To tyranny and oppression that in the world existed,

Even though I'm just a dog, I'm glad those men resisted.

Will humans ever learn though to live in peace together

Love, worship and enjoy life, no matter what the weather?

Or will they still fight "cat & dog", a phrase I do not like

Because they differ in race or creed and believe only they are right!

I think about those fields far north of where I live in France

And for those who gave their lives for peace across that great expanse.

Their names humans will recall today, in Britain poppies will adorn

In France the bleuet is worn, throughout this remembrance 'morn.

So at 11am I'll join my folks and give thanks to those so courageous

So we could live a life of peace and hope human love is now contagious .

New life

Winter is near, gone has the summer heat

The fields lay fallow, muddy but neat.

Gone are the sunflowers,oats and the wheat

But deep in the earth new life lies asleep.

La Poste

Not been a lot happening recently around my pad.  I do get to go out every morning with the Guv for an early morning walk, but you all know that. Some mornings we get to go shopping, sometimes I'm allowed in, other times I'm not.  Fickle lot you humans to where you let canines go.

This morning the Guv said we had to go to " La Poste ", now when my male canines friends say that I know just what "post" they mean and for what purpose!   .......however the Guv meant a different post.

I had to wait outside....................

Chop, Chop !

I think winter must be coming soon as our good neighbour arrived today with his tractor and trailer with all this wood for my people.  The Guv and the Missus started stacking it away in the barn, I just supervised.

Well half done and my people decided they needed a rest

Chop, chop Guv!
