I’m really sorry to hear this devastating news.

The Grand in Clitheroe

Bugger. I started the book yesterday and was drawn in. I should stick to crime fiction.

Trust you to bring that up

I’m 67% through. For once I don’t mind waking up for a middle-of-the-night pee because I can sneak another chapter before I get back to sleep.

Reg was very impressed to get a name check in his human’s present

I’ve often wondered how dog conversations go
“Just seen a pigeon”
“Did it do a pooh? Love the smell of fresh pigeon pooh”
“I did a pooh on the parquet and a bit went in the Mr’s slippers”
“Parquet? You’re well posh”
“I’m off for my jabs this after”
“Good luck. That new vet is a bit of a ruffian”

Just take a couple of minutes to wallow in the warmth of the knowledge that there’s a chubby 62 year old bloke in Lancashire who, every single day, blabs on to all and sundry about how ace your MK books are. They’ve given me hours of pleasure; so, thank you very much and have a perfect Christmas xxx

Nearly every time I say “I wish I’d thought of that”. So funny.
