So I'm now back in London fresh from my hols in the countryside. I had a wonderful time and I'm ever so grateful to the Grandfolks for talking such good care of me - I don't think they wanted me to go but they know I'm a city dog really and have to crack on with my art adventures! So not to waste any time the folks and I jumped in the car yesterday and went on an trip to Essex and Suffolk. First stop was Saffron Walden to visit the Fry Gallery
http://www.fryartgallery.org to see their wonderful collection of prints and paintings by artists such as Edward Bawden, Eric Ravillious and Keith Vaughan. En route there we bumped into another mini chocolate dachshund - she was a super woofer and we got on like a house on fire - I hope I grow up to be as lovely as she was! Then we continued our journey to an area called Hickbush to see where one of Daddy's favourite painters - Patrick George- painted. I had such fun in the fields, eating the cow poo and woofing at anything that moved. I think Daddy was very grateful to have such a good little helper on his search ;) Then to top off such a wonderful day, when we returned to London we met one of my dear friends Ziggy - another mini - who I met in puppy class. It was such a treat to see him as he is growing into such a handsome young doggie. He made me blush because he said I was looking very pretty :) I'm so lucky to have such a collection of fellow sausage friends.
