All the fun of the fair !

Wow- what an amazing weekend, I've been to a party, helped Mummy teach life drawing, watched Mummy's friend Perienne sing in a choir and to top it all off the folks took me to the fair today! I was tempted by the waltzers but Daddy said he didn't fancy it ( I think he was scared ) and Mummy was being over protective when she said the dodgems were too dangerous for me. I'm hoping I might be able to able to slip out later and let my fur down ;)

Carters fun fair in my local park 

Funny looking horses 

This is more like it - just got to convince Daddy

How about this one Mum? 

DODGEMS!!! 
I think this is more Mummy's cup of tea

Looking forward to the weekend..

Thanks goodness it's Friday - it's been another jam packed week for little me. The folks have been doing lots of training with me - some of which I've complied with (hehe). I've been told there is fish and chips on the menu on Saturday and and end of term party at the Princes Drawing School to look forward to tonight. Just got to make sure Mummy gives me a wash before I go out as I'm a mucky pup.  Here are some pics from my week-hope you enjoy them!

Weekend in Oxford

This weekend we all went to visit some friends in Oxford. Luckily for me they have a garden- I had a lot of fun digging it up, finding and eating the pigeon poo and generally being a 'little tinker'. I also met my first herd of cows - I think they were more frightened of me that I was of them :) We visited lots of churches and old ruins and also spent a lot time in doggie friendly pubs. It was a super weekend and I'm hoping I've convinced Mummy's friends to get a little sausage dog like me so I can have a play mate in Oxford!

I'm sure Australia is down here somewhere !? 

Is there a problem? 

Smuggled into a posh garden centre in Mum's bag 

Refreshments 

I'm in charge obviously

Ruth Borchard Self Portrait competition 2013

Last Thursday evening I accompanied the folks to the opening of the Ruth Borchard Self Portrait competition at Kings Place, London. Both Mummy and Daddy have a piece each in the exhibition   - Mummy has a print and Daddy has a drawing. It was very very busy and I got a lot of fuss. I even got to have a wash in the posh toilets as I had rolled in something really smelly and Mummy felt embarrassed to have such a stinky pup! I also met a lovely lady called Ilaria who also has a painting in the exhibition - she also has a blog-  http://ilardt.blogspot.co.uk - and she mentioned meeting me in her blog which was fantastic as I've had a lot more people having a look at what I'm up to! Thanks Ilaria !



Looking at Mummy's print - it's a portrait of her as a Fennec Fox - I think it looks like her!

Here's Daddy's portrait of himself in his mirror - he looks quite stern! 

Too much art and too many people leave me a tired pup :)

It's been a busy week

I am 'cream krackered' as Mummy says. I've had so many walks this week I'm sure my legs have got shorter : ) I've met so many lovely new doggie chums - and a few not so nice ones - one yesterday frightened me so much that I did a little wee :( He won't scare me though as I have a VERY LOUD bark (sorry Mummy and Daddy )

Lurcher ? No problem :)

I even made this one lie down !! 

I'm very happy being the centre of attention!

Spot the small brown dog ! 
Respecting my elders!
